In this study, a die set for enclosed die forging is developed and it is applied to precision forging of bevel gears and spiders. The enclosed die forging die set is introduced in detail together with the enclosed die forging. A target mechanical press and a model product are selected and various engineering technologies are applied for detail design of the enclosed die forging die set. Several precision forgings are manufactured by the developed die set. The enclosed die forging die set as well as the precision forging processes are developed under intensive industry-university cooperation.

The under-drive brake piston is an essential part in the automatic transmissions of automobiles. This component is manufactured by forging after blanking from S55C plate with a thickness of 6mm. It is difficult to design the plate forging process using a thick plate approach since there will be limited material flow as well as large press loads. Furthermore, the under-drive brake piston has a complex shape with a right angle step, which often results in die unfill and abrupt increase in press load. To overcome these obstacles, a separate die for filling material sufficiently to the corner of the right angle step is proposed. However, this approach induces an uncontrolled workpiece surface between the dies, resulting in flash. This excess flash degrades the tool life in the final machining after cold forging as well as increases the cycle time to obtain the net-shape of the part. In the current study, we propose an optimum process design using a conventional die shaped with the benefit of finite element analysis. This approach enhanced the process efficiency without sacrificing the dimensional accuracy in the forged part. As the result, the optimum plate forging process was done with a two stage die, which reduces weight of by 6% compared with previous process for the under-drive brake piston.

The Fine Blanking process is an effective precision shearing process that can obtain a smooth cutting surface and high product precision through a single blanking process. It is widely used in various manufacturing fields. However, shearing through this fine blanking process is only intended to minimize burrs, die rolls and fracture surfaces and does not completely remove them. Therefore, it is necessary to study the minimization of burrs, die rolls and fracture surfaces in the fine blanking process. In this study, a study was conducted on the relationship between the fracture surface and process conditions that occurred during product production using the fine blanking process. For this purpose, the shape of the V-ring indenter, the distance to the punch, and the pressure force, clearance, shear rate, and physical properties of the material were selected as process and design variables, and the relationship with the fracture surface according to each process and design condition was tested. It was analyzed through the Experimental Design Method.

As close competitions are being fought out among enterprises, they should accomplish their objectives such as reduction of cost, improvement of quality and condensation of due date, etc. For this objects, it becomes very important to manage the workflow harmoniously and to share the information efficiently between geographically dispersed users. We developed the collaborative design system, which manages various design process and enables to share design information. In this paper, Internal-based collaboration system for press die design process in the automobile manufacturer is developed with CORBA, Java and relational database system. After modeling real press die design process with UML language, workflow routing path is created by modeling data. Cost and time for ...

In recent years, technology of press plastic working having made remarkable progress. We can say this because it facilitates mass production and have superior performances in machining speed and equivalency of quality than other processing methods. In characteristics of press plastic working, mold manufacturing according to characteristics of each product should be preceded before processing and it has a great influence on machining speed and quality of products and etc according to manufacturing method. Therefore, mold design technology is a critical technology in press plastic working. There are lots of variables in press plastic working according to worked material, mold materials, conditions of heat treatment, clearance and so on. Abrasion of mold depends on these kind of conditions and sheared surface which is crucial for quality of product also depends on them. In this study, we conduct research on abrasion loss of mold according to 8, 10 and 12% of clearance for thickness of 1.0mm of worked material out of mold design variables of the products whose worked materials are high carbon steel and carbon tool steel by a practical experiment.

This paper describes some research works of computer-aided design of blanking & piercing progressive die for stator and rotor parts by the press. An approach to the system is based on knowledge based rules. The developed system is composed of five main modules such as input & graphic interface, blanking feasibility check, strip layout, die layout and output module. Using this system, design parameters (geometric shapes, die generated in dimensions and dimensions of tool elements) are determined and output is generated in graphic form. Knowledges for tool design are extracted from the plasticity theories, handbooks, relevent references and empirical know-hows of experts in blanking companies. The developed system provides powerful capabilities for process planning and die design of stator and rotor parts.

The lead frame manufactured by press stamping process, is an important part of semiconductor. The recent technical trend of semiconductor, chip sized and high performance package technology, requires the lead frame to be of more multi-leads and of fine ILP (Inner Lead Pitch). As the ILP is getting finer, its corresponding punch of the stamping die is getting narrower. The punch narrower than its stamping limit has been broken due to local buckling. This paper analyzed the phenomena of punch breakdown. Moreover, the punch design was modified to increase the critical limit of buckling force. This paper, also, suggested new design rules of the punch, which asks the modification of its lead frame design that has to be considered in the stage of semiconductor package design. The new design rules of lead frame design yields a good reliability of semiconductor package as well as a good quality of lead frame.
