The forging industry is composed of those plants that make parts to order for customers; or make parts for their own company's internal use; or make standard parts for resale. Also, the forging industry is closely related with automobile industry and ship building industry - Korea's major export industry. But, it is hard to find the Korea's forging industry's statistical analysis because it is not revealed with final product. In this paper, we perform statistical analysis using the micro data service provided by the Statistics Korea. We focus on the analysis of production costs as well as the status of forging company and their employee.

In the recent years, lightweight components fabricated with aluminum alloys have been applied into building the automobiles. Among the several competing fabrication methods, hot forging is taken as the most reliable technique to produce suspension parts such as control arms. Generally, Al forging products have been used widely for the aircraft building with the extruded stock as a starting material. For the economical base, however, the cast stocks turn to be as the forging stocks recently after a continuously casting technique was developed to produce quite a uniform microstructure enough to use for the forging process. Even more, there is a tendency to omit the homogenization step before forging, which is considered to be an indispensable process for all kinds of Al alloy, In the present study, a series of compression test was carried out to find out how the cast structure and the following heat treatments influence the deformation behavior, that is, forging characteristic.

Heat - affected zones degenerated in cold forging die have been investigated to improve the tool life. There are many cases of heat-affected zone which are degenerated in manufacturing die and using the cold forging process. In order to define amounts of grinding inmanufacturing the toolfor cold forging, we have investigated the hardness and microstructure of surface layer after EDM. Considering the results of T.R.S. and compression test, it is likely that mechanical properties of tool have been decreased sharply if the heat-affected zones degenerated by EDM were not machined properly. also analyzed the tool surfac which is fractured during the cold forging. According to the microstructures and hardness distribution, surface of many tools have been degenerated in cold forging and fractured due to the heat-affected zone.

We analyzed a sequence of multi-stage automatic cold forging processes composed of four axisymmetric processes followed by a non-axisymmetric process using rigid-plastic finite element based forging simulators. The forging sequence selected for an example involves a piercing process and a heading process accompanying folding or overlapping, which all make it difficult to simulate the processes. To reduce computational time and to enhance the solution reliability, only the non-symmetric process was analyzed by the three-dimensional approach after the axisymmetric processes were analyzed by the two-dimensional approach. It has been emphsized that this capability is very helpful in simulating the multi-stage automatic forging processes which are next to axisymmetric.

This study deals with a series of experimental investigations on multi-stage cold forging of an outer race used for a constant velocity (CV) joint with six inner ball grooves. The multi-stage cold forging, which consists of forward extrusion, upsetting, backward extrusion, and combined sizing-necking including ironing, was used to produce a prototype of the outer race. The cold forging tools such as forging punches and dies required in this multi-stage cold forging were also designed and fabricated. For the combined sizing-necking, especially, the longitudinally six-segmentallized punches were developed to easily eject from the necked inner groove of the outer race with consideration of the operating mechanism. Spheroidized SCr420H billet was used in the experimental study. To verify the suitability of the proposed process, the obtained parts were obtained from each forging operation, and the geometries were compared with the target dimensions. It was confirmed that the outer race with six inner ball grooves was well forged by adopting the proposed multi-stage cold forging, and the dimensional accuracy of the forged outer race matched well with the requirements.

In this research, we developed a process design hot-forging technology that precisely forms an inner race. The inner race transmits power to a one-way clutch of an automatic transmission and minimizes the CNC machining allowance. For a multi-stage hollow shape (inner race), we proposed several shapes of blocker and finisher for the precision hot-forging process and analyzed the forging process using DEFORM. The hot-forging process was optimized for several parameters, such as metal flow pattern, forging defect, and forming load. Blockers and finisher dies in the hot-forging process were designed to select optimal shapes from finite element analysis, and experiments were conducted to optimize the hot-forging process.

This study is concerned with the rotary powder compacting by the cold rotary forging process. An experiment has been carried out using the rotary powder forging press(500kN) which was designed and constructed in the authors' laboratory. The detailed comparisons of several mechanical test by rotary powder forging and rotary powder compacting process are given. It is found that the highly densified P/M parts can be obtained and this process is very effective for improving quality of the powder products.

Scroll compressors are widely used in air conditioning systems and in automobiles due to their low pressure loss, minimal vibrations, and light-weight. Open-die forging with back pressure is used to forge the rotating scroll, and it requires special care since the forging die can be severely damaged at the fixed end of the spiral cavity similar to a fracture of a cantilever beam. To overcome the inevitable weakness of the forging die due to such damage, an innovative design is necessary. In this study, structural analysis using the finite element method was conducted to determine the reason for the fracture of the forging die. A novel design to avoid stress concentrations and vertical deflection, causing serious damage to the die, is suggested.

Recently many kinds of gears have been produced by forging in order to enhance the mechanical properties of the gears and the productivity of the process. Developments in forging technology are the reason for the increased usage. However, a critical problem of the forged gears is the dimensional change or distortion caused by elastic recovery after forging, and relief of the residual stresses during subsequent heat treatments. Distortion is of great concern to the manufacturers of precision parts, because it influences directly the dimensional accuracy and the grade of carburized bevel gears. In the present paper, distortion due to cold forging and heat treatment of bevel gears is investigated. Distortions of forged gears, machined gears and die are measured and compared. Numerical analysis is used to simulate the complete cold forging process and heat treatment process for the machined gears and shows good agreement with the experimental measurements.
