IA03 - SOFTWARE “Computer-aided forging”
Software-Controlled Forging is a program which has been developed to design and carry out open-die forging processes.
Benefits:
- Rapid and accurate design of new manufacturing processes
- Repeatability of production and consistent quality
- Guarantee of high dimensional accuracy
- Correct production documentation
- Accumulation of process know-how
Description:
- Designing of forging procedures based on standards and the knowledge database
- Calculations of manufacturing times and prices of forgings
- Predictions of strains, forces and temperatures in the process
- Predictions of final mechanical properties
- Automated process control – evaluation of predictions and measured data
Relevant fields:
- Forging industry
Applications:
- Open-die forging
