In this paper a local remeshing technique assisted by user-interface capabiities is presented for precise forging simulation. The rigid-plastic finite element formulation is introduced and the basic approach to the new local remeshing technique is presented. A piercing process in cold forging is simulated by the presented technique and the results are compared in detail.

In this paper, a local remeshing technique assisted by flexible user-interface capabilities is presented for precise forging simulation. The rigid-plastic finite element formulation is introduced and the detailed approach to the new local remeshing technique is given. A piercing process in cold forging is simulated by the presented technique and the simulated results are compared with those obtained by the technique and the simulated results are compared with those obtained by the conventional approach and experiments. A typical application example is also given, which emphasizes the capability of the local remeshing technique in forging simulation.

A manufacturing process for a clutch gear which demands high strength and wear resistance, was developed by means of computer simulation. A preform was made by hot forging process and subsequent cold sizing process is applied to complete precise tooth part. Processes to obtain high dimensional accuracy and superior mechanical properties are analyzed and optimal heat treatment cycle to improve cold forgeability is introduced. Prototype was produced and the dimensional accuracy of the prototype was inspected to verify proposed process.

This study was aimed at the design of the dies for the automobile part for the engine oil leakage prevention using the computer simulation to shorten the period of production, on the basis of the process planning which was designed by the field experts. In the computer simulation,'eesy-2-form' of 2D FEM simulation package and 'eesy-DieOpt' have been used, which are the commercial process analysis and die design program. Through the simulation of 'eesy-2-form', we could know the propriety of the forming process, the inner pressure of the die and the suitable fitting pressure between the insert and the sleeve which was not showing any positive tangential stresses in the insert. Through the simulation of 'eesy-DieOpt', we could know the number of the stress ring, the diameter ratios, the stresses of the die, the shrink fitting tolerance and temperature in the condition of the already determined maximum outer die diameter of the multi-stage former. The validity of the die design using the computer simulation was analyzed by the experiments and the results were satisfactory. As the results of this study, the new and easy die design system for cold forging has been developed.

Recently, a much amount of attention has been paid not only to produce products with precise dimensional accuracy, but also to predict and control the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of parts. Especially, to do the latter through computer simulation, the history of states factors influencing on these evolution such as temperature, strain, strain rate etc., should be calculated and a appropriate mathematical models for the prediction of microstructural evolution must be developed. Thus, in this study thermo-viscoplastic finite element program including the model for predicting microstructural has been developed. Also for the verification of developed program warm forging process for the rotor pole was simulated and the comparison between the results calculated and ones in the literature was made.
