Micro-alloyed steel or heat-treatment-free used in clean technology have been replacing for conventional quenched-and-tempered structural steels since the micro-alloyed forging steel was developed in early 1970s in Germany for saving money of heat treatment, simplified process, short delivery and good productivity. In this paper, ball stud assembled in steering system for automobile was selected to compare conventional process making heat treatment with new process using high strength micro-alloyed steel without heat treatment. The conventional process for ball stud was composed of a total of 6 steps including upsetting, forward extrusion, machining, burnishing and tread rolling with heat treatment and shot blasting. As opposed to conventional process, newly proposed process for ball stud using the clean technology without heat treatment is simplified such as forward extrusion, heading, upsetting, forming having a flange shape and tread rolling. Also net shape forming process to achieve specified process not to include machined step fur manufacturing the ball stud was applied to newly simplified process since micro-alloyed steel is difficult to be formed.

Hot press forming allows geometrically complicated parts to be formed from sheet and the rapid cooling hardens them to extremely high strength. The main purpose of this research is to characterize Al coated layer in Al coated boron steel during hot press forming. For the hot press hardening experiment, test specimens were heated up to $810{\sim}930^{\circ}C$ and held for 3, 6 and 9 minutes, respectively. And then, some specimens were press hardened and others were air-cooled without any pressing for the comparison purpose. Al coated layer shows four distinct micro-structural regions of interest; diffusion zone, Al-Fe zone(I) low-Al zone(LAZ) and Al-Fe zone(II). Band-like LAZ is clearly shown at temperature ranges of $810{\sim}870^{\circ}C$ and sparsely dispersed at temperature higher than 900oC. The micro-cracking behavior in the Al coated layer during forming were also analyzed by bending and deep drawing tests. The strain concentration in softer LAZ is found to be closely related with micro-cracking and exfoliation in coated layer during forming.

This paper discusses process design of cold forging for inner tooth part, drum clutch. In respect to high productivity, low material consumption and low piece production costs, Metal forming has more merits than machining process. Net shape forming is huh technology which satisfies merits of metal forming and achieves high accuracy. Recently, net shape forming method widely applied because of high productivity, low material consumption and low piece production costs using press. In this study, the method which accuracy of drum clutch, automatic transmission pin, can be improved is discussed. First, process variables for process design of drum clutch are selected, and then process design is accomplished using forming analysis method. from forming analysis, forming load, stress, unfiling part is obtained. and comparing these results, optimal process design can be determined.

A new concept of salt core, a melting temperature of which is lower than the solidus temperature of cast alloy, was introduced to produced an integrated casting part having a complicated inner shape or requiring under-cut in high pressure die casting or squeeze casting process. The main goal of this study is to develop a new integrated net-shape forming technology using fusible core of lower melting temperature than that of a casting alloy. This integrated net-shape forming technology would be very successful and cost-effective for producing the integrated products having a complicated inner shape or requiring under-cut. The technology for measuring and evaluating a various property of fusible core such as a thermal conductivity and thermal expansion coefficient, melting temperature was established. Also, the work space can be cleaned without a pollution inducing products.

The hot forming process of an exhaust CAM for vessel engine was designed by finite element(FE) simulation and experimental analysis. An aim of process design was to achieve the near-net shaped CAM forgings by hot forging process. Based on the compression test results of the low alloy steel, power dissipation map was generated using the the dynamic materials model(DMM). From the map, the initial heating temperature was determined as 1200oC. FE analysis was simulated to predict the formation of forging defects and deformed shape with different forging designs. Optimum process design suggested in this work was made by comparing with the CAM for vessel engine manufactured by actual forging process.

Tailor-welded blanks are used for forming of automobile structural skin components. The main objective of this study is to achieve weight and cost reduction in manufacturing of components. For successful application of tailor-welded blanks, design of initial welded blanks and prediction of the welding line movement are critical. The utilization of the backward tracing scheme of the finite element method shows to be desirable in design of initial welded blanks for net-shape production and in prediction of the welding line movement. First the design of the initial blank in forming of welded thick sheet with isotropy is tried, and it appears successful in obtaining a net-shape stamping product. Based on the first trial approach, the backward tracing scheme is applied to anisotropic tailored blanks. The welding line movement is also discussed.

Near-net-shape forming of zirconia powder was investigated under the combination of cold die and isostatic pressing and pressureless sintering. A novel combination pressing technique, i.e., die com paction under cold isostatic pressing, allowed to produce a complex shaped ceramic powder compact with the controlled dimensions and relatively uniform density distributions. The constitutive models proposed by Kim and co-workers for densification of ceramic powder under cold compaction and high temperature were implemented into a finite element program (ABAQUS). Experimental data for relative density distributions and deformations of zirconia powder compacts produced by cold combination pressing and pressureless sintering were compared with finite element results. Finite element results agreed well with experimental data.

Metal-mold reactions between investment mold and TiAl alloys were investigated for the economic net-shape forming of TiAl alloys. The effect of mold preheating temperatures on the metal-mold reaction were investigated using a vacuum induction-melting furnace. In the case of TiAl alloys, there were no ${\alpha}$-case formation reactions. There were neither interstitial nor substitutional ${\alpha}$-case formations as TiAl alloys have both negligible solubility of oxygen and low activity in molten states. The fluidity of TiAl alloys increases with mold preheating temperature since they have a peritectic reaction that appears in the form of envelope, surrounding each particles of the primary constituent. The results of the investment casting of TiAl alloys confirm that the casting route in our study can be an effective approach for the economic net-shape forming of TiAl alloys.
