Select the Optimum Die Design for Flange Coupling Forming By Hot Forging

Abstract

In this study, dies are designed and manufactured to produce a flange coupling with hot-closed forging process to select the optimal die by comparing the locations of flash. The study was carried out computationally using DEFORM 3D program in two stages. The first one was used to obtain a work piece with suitable dimensions used in the final stage of the forming process to prevent the defects of the forming process. Through the simulation process for all the proposed dies, the results of forming load, effective stress, strain effective and movement of metal particles were compared for optimum die. Experimentally, the forging process was carried out on a mechanical forging machine for the optimal die according to the data obtained from the simulation program.
