Rotor grip is used as a component of rotor system in unmanned helicopter. Instead of usual machining, hot forging process has been considered to improve its proof stress against repeated loading conditions and crash in the farm-field. Die design and forming analysis have been performed according to the conditions such as billet volume, flash, cavity filling, and the distribution of damage during the forming by using FE analysis. In the results of analysis, the possibility of structural failure in the model has not been found because its maximum effective stress is much lower than yield strength of the titanium alloy. In the forging die design, flash has been allowed because of low production in the industrial field. Preform design was studied by using FE-analysis, and its optimal dimension was obtained in the hot forging of rotor grip with titanium alloy.

In this paper, the usefulness of a three-dimensional forging simulation technique is verified through its application to process design in rotor pole forging. A simulator, AFDEX3D developed based on the rigid-plastic finite element method and hexahedral elements, is employed. The simulated results of an application example found in a precision forging company are compared with the actually forged ones in detail. It has been verified that the simulation results are in good agreement with the actual phenomena.

Solid state joining techniques are increasingly applied in a wide range of industrial applications. Friction welding is a solid state welding technique that is used to join similar or dissimilar materials. In this study, friction welding was applied to rotor shaft composed of a disk and a shaft. The disk and shaft were manufactured by hot forging and rolling, respectively. The aim of the study was to predict the structural characteristics during hot forging and friction welding process for rotor shaft of turbo charger. The structural characteristics were determined by heat input and heat affected zone (HAZ) during a short cycle time. Thus, transient FE analysis for hot forging and friction welding was based on heat transfer. The results were used to predict structural characteristics during hot forging and friction welding processes. The prototype of rotor shaft was manufactured by the result-based process parameters.

The die design for hot forging was investigated for manufacturing precisely of scroll rotor made with Al-Si alloy. A scroll rotor is a non-symmetric 3-D shape part, having involute wraps. Disk-shaped billet of Al-Si alloy was extruded to wraps and boss simultaneously. Because the involute wraps is not axi-symmetric, the flow velocity and the stress of die is very much different at each portion. Moreover, the die in wraps portion is a cantilever beam and fractured. In this paper, the analysis of forming and die stress is investigated using the FEM tool, DEFORM-3D. The tensile strength of tool material is $250kg/mm^{2}$. From the analysis results, we can find the maximum principal stress of die is over the fracture strength and redesign the die. The prototype forged part is superior in net shaping and microstructure.

Voids in a large rotor are formed in solidification process of a cast ingot. The voids have to be eliminated from the rotor by a forming process, because they would became stress-intensity factors which suddenly fracture the rotor in the operation. Previous studies on void-elimination of a large rotor have mainly focused on finding the process variables affecting the void-closure. But the study on the amount of void closure in a large rotor has been very rare. This study was performed to obtain an equation which predicts the amount of void-closure in a forging process of a large rotor and to evaluate the availability of the void-closure equation through finite element analyses. Firstly, 2D FE analysis was carried out to find effects of time integral of hydrostatic stress and effective strain on void volume rate of a large rotor in the upsetting process for various diameters and shapes of void, and material temperature. From the 2D FE analysis, we found that effective strain was suitable for predicting the void-closure of a large rotor, because there was a constant relationship between void volume rate and effective strain. And a void-closure equation was proposed fur predicting void-closure of a large rotor in the upsetting process. Finally, ken the 3D FE analysis, the proposed void-closure equation was verified to be useful for upsetting and cogging processes.

In this paper, we simulate a rotor pole cold forging process by a forging simulator with both tetrahedral and hexahedral element capabilities and compare the predictions obtained by the two approaches with the experiments. Hexahedral element capability runs manually while tetrahedral element capability runs automatically with help of an intelligent remeshing technique. It is shown that the tetrahedral element capability can give quite accurate solution if assisted by the intelligent remeshing technique even though the tetrahedral element itself is not theoretically and numerically clear.

To improve the efficiency of fossil power plant, the higher steam temperature and pressure are required. Ultra super critical(USC) system meets very well this requirement. The HIP rotor is one of the most important parts of turbine in USC system and its material is easy to crack during hot forging. In this study, the upsetting and cogging process far $12\%Cr$ ESR ingot was analyzed and it is suggested a optimum process to avoid surface crack. The results were verified by test product with 4,200 tonnage press.

Furthermore the rothor pole, with a solid type, manufactured by cold forging process at present should dmploy 3 press lines which consist of total 7 processes. Since A.S.B. treatment is prerequisite for the press line, the 3 times of A.S.B. treatment requires a long lead time, with little contribution to the reduction in cost. The author has investigated, through this researach, the possibility of a new forging method for a rotor pole production with (1) 2 pass instead of 3 press lines (2) only one A.S.B. treatment instead of 3 ones (3) solid type instead of sectional type, and (4) improvment of material property during process using a modified forging process and a specially designed die.

In this research, to obtain the optimal die width of CV die(conventional die), which replaces FM die in free forging of large scale rotor using the flat die, the model material experiments and theoretical analysis using three dimensional FEM are performed. The FM die, which was designed to remove Mannesmann's effect at the central part of the ingot, has very bad workabiltity in real field, therefore on the empirical base they use the CV die of wide width in actual working field. In this study, the excellency of CV die is proved quantitively, and the optimal die width of CV die is determined through the model material experiments and theoretical analysis using FEM in the point of effective strain, stresses, and load.

자동차의 A.C 제너레이터(alternating current generator) 부품으로 사용되는 로터폴(rotor pole)을 가공할 때는 트랜스퍼온간단조금형(transfer warm forging die)으로 성형한다. 소재를 온간가공 영역으로 가열한 후 즉시 금형안으로 이송시켜 제1스테이지(1st stage)에서 업세팅가공(upsetting work)하고 제2스테이지(2nd stage)로 이송하여 측방압출(lateral extrusion)가공을 한다. 이때 측방압출 스테이지의 금형에서 다이블록(die block), 다이부싱(die bushing), 센터펀치(center punch), 사이드펀치(side punch)의 접촉면이 압출시의 과혹(過酷)한 조건에 견디지 못하여 쉽게 마멸(abrasion)되어 금형수명(die life)을 단축시키고 있다. 이 때문에 생산량 감소로 인한 납기지연, 금형의 수리보수시간 과다, 제품의 정밀도 저하 등의 문제점이 발생되고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 금형재질 선정과 열처리 작업 싸이클 개선, 방전가공시의 트러블 해소, 핵심부품의 구조변경 등을 연구하여 금형수명을 40~50% 연장 하고자 하였다.
