알루미늄 제품은 열간단조하면 재료가 연화되어 있어 절삭가공시 연속적인 칩이 발생하여 공구와 피삭재를 감고 회전함으로서 가공면 손상, 공구파손 및 작업자의 안전을 초래함에 따라 가공이 어려워 단지 절삭성 개선목적만을 위해 중간공정으로 T-4열처리하여 절삭가공하고 다시 어닐링처리하여 냉간성형을 하고 최종열처 리를 한다. 따라서 본 연구는 열간단조후 제품을 급냉시키면 용체화처리의 효과를 얻어 재료가 경화됨으로서 절삭성이 개선될 수 있다는 이론에 근거하여 T4열처리를 대체할 수 있는 후처리방법에 대해 연구하였다. 최적의 후처리방법을 구하기 위해 열간단조후 수냉과 공냉처리를 비교분석하였고, 열간단조후 냉각처리까지 지연된 시간과 수냉과정에서의 유지시간에 따른 분식을 통해 최적의 작업조건을 설정하였다.

The amount of production orders from Japanese car and construction machine industries have slightly increased in 2002, but the costs of the forged parts have decreased due to severe competitions with the other Asian countries. Most of the forging industries and some universities are making more efforts for technological researches and developments to meet the demand for higher accuracy and higher quality products, shortening of delivery time, and development of forged parts for new industrial fields. Some helical gears of which surfaces can be net-shaped have been started for commercial base production to be shipped to car industries. Some non-graphite lubricants for hot forging and some conversion coating free lubricants for cold forging have been developed to improve some environmental problems.

표면의 균열, 겹침결함, 금형의 코너반경이 작아 재료의 유동성이 낮을 때 발생하는 콜드셧, 부분충진등의 단조결함이 없는 자동차용 단조 플랜지를 생산하기 위해서 열전달, 단류선 흐름, 응력분포를 고려하여 형단조 공정과 금형에 대한 해석을 수행하였다. 축박기(up-set) 단조, 예비성형, 최종성형, 단조압력으로 구성된 단조과정은 유한요소법으로 해석되었다. 예비성형과 상하 금형의 높이비율이 단조공정과 금형에 미치는 영향을 평가하여 예비금형의 각 $10^{\circ}$와 최종 금형의 상하비율 1.5:1이 단조결함이 없는 결과를 나타내었다. 이를 반영한 새로 설계된 금형은 재료강도, 완전충진, 하중한계 13,000 KN 이라는 공정변수를 모두 만족시켰다. 이론 입증을 위해서 개선된 금형과 플랜지가 제작되었으며, 단조결함이 발견되지 않았다.

Cold-expanded austenitic high nitrogen steel (HNS) was subjected to investigate the effects of grain size on the stress-controlled high cycle fatigue (HCF) as well as the strain-controlled low cycle fatigue (LCF) properties. The austenitic HNSs with two different grain sizes (160 and $292{\mu}m$) were fabricated by the different hot forging strain. The fine-grained (FG) specimen exhibited longer LCF life and higher HCF limit than those of the coarse-grained (CG) specimen. Fatigue crack growth testing showed that crack propagation rate in the FG specimen was the same as that in the CG specimen, implying that crack propagation rate did not affect the discrepancy of LCF life and HCF limit between two cold-expanded HNSs. Therefore, it was estimated that superior LCF and HCF properties in the FG specimen resulted from the retardation of the fatigue crack initiation as compared with the CG specimen. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the effective grain size including twin boundaries are much finer in the FG specimen than that in the CG specimen, which can give favorable contributions to strengthening.

The semi-solid forging is a new forging technology in which the billet is heated to the semi-solid state coexisting liquid and solid phase for making globular microstructure and subsequently formed. As the semi-solid forging is compared with conventional casting such as die casting and squeeze casting for the characteristics of its process, the product without inner defects such as gas porosity and segregation can be obtained and its microstructure is globular grain. Simutaneously, its mechanical properties are improved by globular microstructure and the lower temperature of the slug causes the cycle time of manufacturing to be shortened and the die life to be lengthened. As it is compared with conventional cold and hot forging, it is possible to minimize the equipment of production owing to a lower forming load and reduce the number of process by a followed treatment for complex shaped product. Therefore it is needed to confirm the quality of a semi-solid forged product by defining its characteristics quantitatively under these advantages. This paper investigates the formability of a master cylinder by its forming variables. And the microstructural characteristics and mechanical property of it is also studied.

The under-drive brake piston is an important component in automotive transmissions. It changes the velocity by controlling the gear ratio. It has been traditionally manufactured by hot forging. Recently, there has been an effort to replace this traditional manufacturing method with cold forging in order to improve the dimensional accuracy and decrease the surface roughness. Cold forging uses a smaller amount of initial material and also has a shorter cycle time since the forged surface can be the final surface without the need of post-processing such as machining or grinding. In the current study, finite element analysis was conducted to evaluate a process design using an initial plate with reduced thickness. This smaller thickness decreases the amount of material needed for the part as well as the machining to produce the final product.

Lots of forginfs used in automobile and aerospce industries are made in hot or cold working conditions, depending on the size and shape of a product. Usually the die design for new items has been first made on the basis of experiences and many know-hows accumulated in the company and then slightly modified through trial and error method to get the desired forgings without defects. Most of drawings at the die design stage have been manually drawn, butrecently some of forging companies have begun to apply a computer-aided drafting technique to the die design for reducing drafting time as well as repeatedly utilizing standardized parts form registerd data base. In this paper the automated die design technique for forward extrusion of axisymmetric forgings is developed by using AutoLISP language. For this study the representative die system is determined form the investigation of several types of forging dies being currently employed in the metal forming field and the design rules for cold extrusion die are summarized and programmed on a personal computer. A few design examples of forward extrusion die are given and discusses.

Two atomized alloy powders were pre-compacted by cold and subsequently hot forged at temperatures ranging from 653K to 845K. The addition of Cu and Mg causes a decrease in the eutectic reaction temperature of Al-10Si-5Fe-1Zr alloy from 841K to 786K and results in a decrease of flow stress at the given forging temperature. TEM observation revealed that in addition to Al-Fe based intermetallics, $Al_2Cu$ and $Al_2CuMg$ intermetallics appeared. The volume fraction of intermetallic dispersoids increased by the addition of Cu and Mg. Compressive strength of the present alloys was closely related to the volume fraction of intermetallic dispersoids.

Four microalloyed steels containing B were investigated in terms of hardenability, mechanical properties and microstructure depending upon the cooling rates in order to develop the steel grade for the cold forged fasners. The alloy with the largest DI value among 4 alloys, which contains $0.12\%\;C,\;1.54\%\;Mn,\;0.65\%\;Cr,\;0.11\%V,\;0.040\%Ti\;and\;0.0033\%B$, showed the larest shift to the right hand side in the TTT diagram, implying the wide allowable cooling rate range subsequent to hot rolling in long bar processing, Mechanical tests indicated that yield strength are dependent upon the DI value in water quenched specimens but other properties showed almost the same values. In the same grade of steel, the increase in cooling rates causes the decrease in elongation but the increase in strength, reduction of area and Charpy impact values. Microstructural examination in steel grade with the larest DI values revealed martensitic structure In the water quenched state, a mixture of martensite and bainite in the oil quenched, and ferrite + pearlite in the air cooled and the forced air cooled but the latter showed finer microstructure.
