The elastic stress analysis of the die for helical gear forging has been calculated by using the nodal force at the final stage obtained from the rigid-plastic finite element analysis. In order to obtain more precise gear products. the elastic analysis of the die after release of punch and the elastic spring-back analysis of product after ejection have been performed and the final dimension of the computational product has been in good agreement with that of the experimental product.

This study uses finite element analysis to evaluate the forming load of tool entrance angle of the cold forward extrusion molding process of helical gear; this can replace the spur gear applied to the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) system. A cold forging process is often used in the automobile industry as well as in various industrial machines due to its high efficiency. Finite element analysis is frequently used when interpreting results of the forging process. Formality was evaluated by calculating tooth profile filling rate of helical gear. Change in required forming load was investigated when the entrance angle of forward extrusion tool die was changed from $30^{\circ}$ to $60^{\circ}$, also by finite element analysis. We suggest suitable tool entrance angles.

Of all the many types of machine elements which exist today, gears are among the most commonly used. Many researches have been done to manufacture helical gears by cold forging and extrusion. Although cold forging and extrusion were applied to some bevel, spur, and helical gears, problems in connection with reducing forming load and tool life still make it difficult for the related methods to be commercialized. In this study, focusing on reducing load in forming helical gears, extrusion of helical gears by a two-step process is proposed. The process is composed of an extrusion step of spur gears used as preform and a torsion step of the preform to make helical gears. Upper-bound analysis for the two-step process is performed and compared with results of experiments. The newly proposed method can be used as an advanced forming technique to remarkably reduce the forming load and replace the conventional forming process of helical gears.

A counter shaft gear is an important part in the transmission system of vehicle. Its shape is relatively complicated and should meets high strength. Traditionally it has been manufactured as follows; the counter shaft gear has consisted of a clutch and helical body with teeth which are forged and machined for teeth respectively and then attached by frictional welding. In this study, a new hot forging process was proposed and designed so that the counter shaft gear is formed as one body without divide it into two parts. Furthermore, the precision forging process has been developed for the clutch teeth without additional grinding.

Forging process is one of the forming process and is used widely in automobile parts and manufacture industry. Especially the gears like spur gear, helical gear, bevel gear were produced by machine tool, but recently they have been manufactured by forging process. The goal of this study is to study forming process with data obtained by comparison between forward extrusion and upsetting simulation results and formability improvement by various heat treatment conditions. By analysis data of 3D FEM by upsetting and forward extrusion forming, the forming process of clutch gear develops using data based on 3D FEM analysis. Through tensile test using specimens by various heat treatment conditions, the optimal heat treatment condition is obtained by comparison the results of tensile test.
