This paper suggests the new technology to control metal flow in orther to change of the cold forging from conventional deep drawing forming. This technology can be summarized the complex forming, which consists of bulk forming and sheet forming, and multi-action forging, which be performed double action press. The proposed technology is applied to hub clutch model which is part of auto-transmission for automobile. The purpose of this study is to investigate the material flow behavior of hub clutch through control the relative velocity ratio and the stroke of mandrel and punch using the flow forming technique. First of all, the finite element simulations are applied to analyse optimal process conditions to prevent flow defect(necking defect etc.) from non-uniform metal flow, then the results are compared with the plasticine model material experiments. The punch load for real material is predict from similarity law. Finally, the model material experiment results are in good agreement with the FE simulation ones.

In cold forging of piston-pin for automobile parts, the flow defect appears by the dead metal zone. This appearance evidently happens in products with a thin piercing thickness for the dimension accuracy and the decrease of material loss. The best method that can prevent flow defect is removing dead metal zone. The purpose of this study is to investigate the material flow behavior of forward-backward extruded piston-pin through the relative velocity ratio and the stroke control of upper moving punch & container using the flow control forming technique. The finite element simulations are applied to analyse the flow defect, then the results are compared with the plasticine model material experiments. Finally, the model experiment results are in good agreement with the FE simulation ones.

Material flow control mechanism is a kind of operational policy in manufacturing. It is very important because it varies throughput, throughput time, and work-in-process (WIP) under the same manufacturing resources. Many Researchers have developed various material flow control mechanisms and insisted that their mechanism is superior to others. However the experimental environment used in the performance comparison are different and impractical. In this paper, we set various manufacturing environments to fairly compare five previous material flow control mechanism : Push, Pull, CONWIP, Gated MaxWIP, and Critical WIP Loops. The simulation results show that the Push is superior to others in both of throughput and WIP if required demand is less than 80% of capacity. In addition, the performance of CONWIP and its variants are not different statistically.

Flow defect of a piston-pin for automobile parts is investigated in this study. In combined cold extrusion of piston-pin, lapping defect, which is a kind of flow defect, appears by the dead metal zone. This appearance evidently happens in products with a thin thickness to be pierced for the dimensional accuracy and the decrease of material loss. The flow defect that occurs in piston-pin has bad effects on the strength and the fatigue life of piston-pin. Therefore, it is important to predict and prevent defects in the early stage of process design. The best method that can prevent flow defect is removing or reducing dead metal zone through material flow control. The finite element simulations are applied to analyze the flow defect. This study proposes processes for preventing flow defect by removing dead metal zone. Then the results are compared with the experimental ones for verification. These FE simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental ones.

In this paper, the metal forming process is caused of rise of the unit cost of production in increase of the lead-time and cost because of manufacturing final product through a few the number of processes. Flow control complex forming is proposed to put into formulation in order to apply cold forging from conventional approximate similarity theory, and the forming loads of the real material(AISI 1008) can be calculated by put at the new similarity formula the load by plasticine model material experiment through hub clutch. In order to reduce lead-time and cost the technology is used to manufacture with lower die of this product. By the application synthetic resin as the raw material, it is have the merit such short lead-time, low cost, good surface finish etc., as compared with the machine work.

In this paper, the relation between displacement of piezoelectric material and electric field was proposed. FEA was introduced to predict the displacement and reaction force of plate spring attached in the piezoelectric material. The relation between displacement of piezoelectric material forced by plate spring and applied electric field were further verified by experimental investigation. Also, the flow rate of gas in piezoelectric valve was examined by experiment. Finally, the relation between electric field and gas flow was derived. Based on these results, these relations can be used in the design of mass flow controller.

It is important to control material flow in shipbuilding as it decides the productivity of production, cost and period of production. The weight of material in a big shipyard is even more one million tons. The results contained in this paper can provide the valuable information on the effect of reduction of cost and competitive power. The intention of this paper is to let ship builders pay attention to material flow. This paper refers to other manufacture's methods to improve their material flow and also give one example to show how to pursue to improve material flow in a shop. We have still lots of room to improve material flow.

This paper presents development of flow control valve using MR fluid. Generally, since the apparent viscosity of MR fluids is adjusted by applying magnetic fields, the MR valves can control high level fluid power without any mechanical moving parts. In this paper, flow control valve using MR fluid on the behavior of the magnetic field influence on the numerical analysis of more accurate electromagnetic parameters were obtained, even if when magnetic field apply inside of surrounding MR fluid from electromagnet, more realistic designing way analysis of characteristic of whole magnetic field distribution is suggested by surrounding magnetic material. Also, comparison of flow rate inlet and outlet, behavior of MR fluid in experiments proposed. A new type of flow control valve using MR fluid is proposed by analysis of behavior of MR fluid in experiments.

In the semi-solid die casting process, the important thing is the flow behaviors of semi-solid material. The flow patterns of semi-solid material can make the defects during die filling. To control of the flow patterns, is very important and difficult. In this paper, the flow behaviors of the semi-solid A356 alloy material during die filling at various die gate shapes has been observed with the grain size controlled material. The effects of the gate shape on the die filling characteristics were investigated. The filling tests in each plunger strokes were experimented, also simulated on the semi-solid material die casting process by MAGMAsofi. According to the filling tests and computer simulation, the effect of the gate shape on liquid segregation had been investigated.
