Effect of Forming Speed in Precision Forging Process Evaluated Using CAE Technology and High Performance Servo-press Machine

AbstractThis study investigates the process design method for precision forging combined with complex and flexible motions realized using servo-press machine with the aid of computer-aided engineering technology and design of experiment study. The evaluation results for the simplified unsetting process of a CVT pulley and precision spur gear forging process indicate that the design method proposed in this study could provide useful information on the effects of press motion for important process outputs, such as the forming load and deformation behavior of the workpiece
