Ring forging process is more appropriate for high-length and thin walled ring, because it utilizes the forging press and hence does not require heavy-duty ring rolling mill. Although ring forging process is very simple and economic for facilities, the process is not efficient because of multi-forging-step and low material utilization. An effective ring forging process is developed using a hollow ingot. When a hollow ingot is used with a workpiece, the ingot can be forged into a final ring without multi-stage pre-forging process, such as, cogging, upsetting, and piercing, etc.. Finally it has advantages of the material utilization and process improvement because a few reheating and forging process are not necessary to make workpiece for ring forging. The important design variables are the applied plastic deformation energy to eliminate cast structure and make uniform properties. In this study, the mechanical properties after forging of hollow cast ingot were investigated from the experiment using circumferential sectional model. Also, the effects of process variables were studied by FEM simulation on the basis of thermo-visco-plastic constitutive equation. Applied strain is different at each position in length direction because diameter of hollow ingot is different in length direction. The different strain distribution become into a narrow gap by additional plastic deformation during diameter extension process.

In order to increase the lifetimes of cold forging dies, insert rings are generally used. In this study, an insert ring and shrunk ring of the flange upsetting die were designed for the cold forging of an automotive wheel nut. The Stress distribution occurring in the die during forging was simulated using a commercial finite element analyzing program. The effects of the fitting interference and inclined angle of the insert ring on the compressive stress of the die inside were also investigated. The simulated data were compared with the real lifetimes of the forging dies. The maximum compressive stress acting on the edge of a forging die should have the most influence on die lifetime, an idea which could help develop the die design with the longest lifetime. The design of the most optimal forging die with the longest lifetime is made possible by analyzing the maximum inner pressure and principal stress between the shrunk ring and insert ring.

풍력 발전기용 기계부품은 주로 자유단조 공법을 통하여 제조된다. 본 연구는 풍력발전기용 타워부품인 도아프레임의 제조하기 위한 발전된 단조공법에 관한 연구이다. 개발된 단조공법의 장점은 원소재 회수율을 높임에 따라 원소재 투입량을 줄임으로 제조원가를 낮춘다. 기존의 단조공업은 유압프레스를 이용하여 단조작업이 이루어지며 최종제품과 단조품의 형상 차이로인하여 많은 부분이 가공으로 제거된다. 하지만 제안된 단조공법은 열간 자유단조와 링롤링공법을 통하여 원소재 회수율을 높이게 된다. 새로운 공법의 유효성은 링롤링 블랭크의 치수와 밀접한 관련이 있기 때문에 유한요소해석을 통하여 블랭크의 치수를 최적화 하였다. 유한요소해석을 통하여 얻은 단조품의 치수는 시제품 생산을 통하여 검증하였다.

An upper bound elemental technique(UBET) is applied to predict the forging load and die-cavity filling for non-axisymmetric ring forging. In order to analyze the process easily, it is suggested that the finial product is divided into three different deformation regions. That is axisymmetric part in corner, lateral plane-strain part and shear deformation on boundaries between them. the place-strain and axisymmetric part are combinded by building block method. Also the total energy is computered through combination of three deformation part. Experiments have been carried out with pure plasticine billets at room temperature. The theoretical predictions of the forging load and the flow pattern are in good agreement with the experimental results.

본 연구에서는 원웨이 클러치의 핵심 부품인 Outer Support Ring의 복합 단조 공정을 개발하고, 시제품을 제작하여 평가하였다. 기존 공정 즉, 열간 단조와 MCT 가공 공정은 과대한 소재 절삭량과 가공 시간이 길다는 단점이 있다. 이를 극복하고자 열간 단조를 통하여 형상을 구현하고, 냉간 단조를 통하여 정밀한 부품을 성형하였다. 최소한의 가공만을 적용하는 복합 단조 공정을 개발하였다. 상용 소프트웨어인 Deform-3D를 이용하여 단조 해석을 수행하였다. 해석 결과를 바탕으로 열간 단조 및 냉간 단조 공정을 설계하였고, 실제 금형 및 시제품을 제작하였다. 제작한 시제품은 경도, 표면 조도, 내부 결함, 단류선 검사 등의 평가를 수행하였다. 평가결과 특이한 문제점은 발견되지 않았으며, 양산적용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 복합 단조를 통하여 열간 단조와 MCT 가공 공정 대비 약 27%의 소재를 절감할 수 있었다. 또한 제품 개당 생산 시간은 약 2.15배 단축되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 원가 절감이 가능한 공정 및 금형 설계 기술을 확립하였고, 이를 통하여 관련 자동차 부품 생산에도 긍정적인 효과가 있을 것으로 기대된다.

An upper bound elemental technique (UBET) is applied to predict variations of neutral plane and optimal position of the initial billet for rib-wep shaped ring forging. In the analysis, the neutral plane position and velocity fields are determined by minimizing the total power consump- tion with respect to chosen parameters. The degree of die-cavity filling by initial billet-position and the variations of neutral plane by friction condition are investigated. Experiments have been carried out with pure plasticine billets at room temperature. The theoretical predictions of the forging load and the flow pattern are in good agrement with the experimental results.

The aim of this study is to investigate the process conditions on the microstructual changes and mechanical properties of large 7175 aluminum ring roll forgings. The billets range from 370 mm to 720 mm in diameter were homogenized and ring roll forged after direct chill casting. The tensile properties of ring roll forged specimen manufactured with ${\Phi}370mm$ billets were superior to those of ${\Phi}720mm$ billets under $T_6$ condition. Also, these properties showed better than those of military specification under $T_{74}$ treatment. The impact value of ring roll forged specimen under $T_{74}$ treatment increased up to 20% than that of $T_6$ condition. The fracture toughness of ring roll forged specimen manufactured with ${\Phi}370mm$ cast billet showed nearly same level of ${\Phi}720mm$ billet which was processed using MF or Cog free forging followed by ring roll forging.

Current state of plastic processes of steel bearing parts is surveyed. According to the advances in plastic forming technologies and their great advantage to mass production, plastic processes are adopted in manufacturing majority of bering parts. The rings are forged or ring rolled and the rolling elements, i.e, balls or rollers are cold formed before fine machining. Bearing's steel retainers are mainly press formed using cold rolled seel strips. Including the general explanation about above processes, some details of forging technology, control of forging temperature and after cooling process, and examples of computer simulation are described.

Quantitative evaluation of the tribological conditions at the tool-workpiece interface in metal forming is usually accomplished by the ring compression test. This paper describes an experimental investigation into friction factor under warm forming conditions according to the lubricants and the lubricating methods using the ring compression test. Four different lubricants, two water based graphite and two oil based graphite lubricants, and three different lubricating methods were applied in the experiments. Calibration curves with the friction shear factor were obtained using FEM analysis and verified by the experimental results. The influence of lubricant and lubricating methods on friction are discussed. In the ring compression test, the lower friction factor got to spray the oil based lubricant on die and billet in warm forging temperature.
