In this study, the complex forging process of an outer support ring was developed and the prototype was manufactured. The current process, hot forging and MCT machining, has a disadvantage of excessive material removal rates and longer machining hours. To overcome this disadvantage, a general shape is given through hot forging and the precision is achieved through cold forging. The complex forging process was developed with the minimal machining process. Forging analysis was carried out to design a forging process using the commercial program, Deform-3D. The hot and cold forging processes were set up based on the analyzed result. The mold and prototype were manufactured. Hardness, surface roughness, internal defect, the grain low line of the prototype were evaluated. The results showed no particular problems, and there were no problems in mass production. Using complex forging, the material was reduced by approximately 27 % compared to the process using hot forging and MCT machining. In addition, the production speed was improved 2.15 fold compared to that of hot forging and MCT machining. Through this study, a cost-effective process and mold design technology were established, which is expected to have positive effects on other related automotive parts production.

A screw is a type of fastener characterized by a helical ridge known as thread. The demands for screws with the miniaturization and weight reduction are increasing for the trend of small size of mobile devices. The successful designs of mold and process are very important to obtain screws with good mechanical properties and high precision. In this study, the design of cold forging process of micro screw was carried out by using finite element method. In particular, in order to investigate the effects of die geometries and friction, design of experiment method was adopted and it was revealed that the friction was the dominant factor of folding defects. From these results, the design of die was modified and experiments were carried out with the modified die. From the experimental results, it was found that the folding defects disappeared.

Of all the many types of machine elements which exist today, gears are among the most commonly used. Many researches have been done to manufacture helical gears by cold forging and extrusion. Although cold forging and extrusion were applied to some bevel, spur, and helical gears, problems in connection with reducing forming load and tool life still make it difficult for the related methods to be commercialized. In this study, focusing on reducing load in forming helical gears, extrusion of helical gears by a two-step process is proposed. The process is composed of an extrusion step of spur gears used as preform and a torsion step of the preform to make helical gears. Upper-bound analysis for the two-step process is performed and compared with results of experiments. The newly proposed method can be used as an advanced forming technique to remarkably reduce the forming load and replace the conventional forming process of helical gears.

The elastic stress analysis of the die for helical gear forging has been calculated by using the nodal force at the final stage obtained from the rigid-plastic finite element analysis. In order to obtain more precise gear products. the elastic analysis of the die after release of punch and the elastic spring-back analysis of product after ejection have been performed and the final dimension of the computational product has been in good agreement with that of the experimental product.

The characteristics of the tool system give many effects into the costs and qualities for the finished components. This study proposes a new method for manufacturing of high manufacturing productivity, production process reduction and low cost through back pressure forming. The Lock-up hub is manufactured through many processes, such as upsetting($1^{st}$ Forming), piercing, direct extrusion($2^{nd}$ Forming), final sizing process($3^{rd}$ Forming). In this study, process design for closed-die forging of a Lock-up hub used for a component of automobile transmission was made using three-dimensional finite element simulations, and the strain distributions and velocity distributions are investigated through the post processor. The rigid-plastic finite-element method for back pressure forging has been used in order to reduce development time and die cost. Using the FEM simulation, we found the optimum value of back pressure. The prototypes of Lock-up hub parts were forged into the net-shape. In the experiment, lead precision of tooth are measured by the CCMM(Contact Coordinate Measuring Machine). The dimensional accuracy of forged part was improved up to the 40% when back press was applied.

Aus-tempering heat treatment is suitable for thin and small-sized in precision parts. However, the heat treatment process relies on the experience and skill of the operator, making it challenging to produce precision parts due to the cold forging process. The aims of this study is to explore suitable machine learning models using data from the aus-tempering heat treatment process and analyze the factors that significantly impact the mechanic properties (e.g. hardness). As a result, the study analyzed, from a machine learning perspective, how hardness prediction varies based on the quenching temperature, carbon (C), and copper (Cu) contents.
