Based on the rigid-plastic deformation finite element method and the heat transfer theories, the forming process of cross wedge rolling was simulated with the finite element software DEFORM-3D. The temperature field of the rolled piece during the forming process was analyzed. The results show that the temperature gradient in the outer of the work-piece is sometimes very large and temperature near the contact deformation zone is the lowest while temperature near the center of the rolled-piece keeps relatively stable and even rises slightly. Research results provide a basis for further study on metal flow and accurate shaping of work-piece during cross wedge rolling.

In recent years, the style of 3C products demanded thin and small results due to gradual trends, though most of the industry is forming a continuous manner of stamping. However, the material thickness cannot be changed in products. This paper employs the rigid-plastic finite element (FE) DEFORMTM 3D software to investigate the plastic deformation behavior of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) workpiece for the forming processes of cellphone covers. In addition, this study utilizes the Solid Work 2010 3D graphics-rendering software for modeling, which is simulation software used to import various forming process conditions. The software analyzes the effective strain, the effective stress, critical damage value, and the die radius load distribution of the work-piece. Furthermore, this study used simulative software to analyze its forming processes for changes in grain size of the microstructure. The analytical results confirm the suitability of the current finite element software for forming processes of cellphone covers.

Titanium alloy possesses high strength, good corrosion resistance, and high heat resistance; thus, it is widely used in the aerospace and other fields. Blades of titanium alloy are important components of aero-engines and are essential to the engines operation. In this work, a Ti-6Al-4V blade was formed by cross wedge rolling (CWR) to realize the near net-shape of an aero-engine blade. First, thermal simulation experiments of Ti-6Al-4V were carried out to obtain the thermal deformation constitutive equation of the alloy. The finite element software Deform-3D was then used to simulate the thermodynamic coupling of the forming process, and the metal flow, temperature, and stress–strain distribution laws during the forming process were analyzed. Finally, experimental verification of the Ti-6Al-4V blade was carried out by using an H500 CWR mill. The results revealed the feasibility of applying CWR to preform Ti-6Al-4V blades.

Laser forming has become a promising technique to form sheet metal in recent years. This new forming process can produce plastic deformation by thermal stresses resulted from the irradiation of laser beam scanning. In this paper, a 3-D thermo-mechanical FEM model was developed to simulate the laser forming process of shipbuilding steel plate. The finite-element software MSC.Marc was used to calculate the temperature field, stress field and strain field during laser forming process. The transient temperature field and the final bending angle were predicted. Then the effect of laser forming process technical parameters was studied. To evaluate the accuracy of the simulation, a laser forming experiment was performed. It is demonstrated that the finite element simulation results are in good agreement with experimental results.

This paper develops an opened forging and divided flow process for spiral bevel gears. By the help of rigid-plastic finite-element software DEFORM-3D, this paper designed cold-extruding part and concave die for bevel gear in the rear running gear of tri-motorcycle and simulated the forming process of cold-heading and extruding. On condition of guaranteeing shaping quality of teeth, the optimum diameter of die porthole was made sure by analyzing the effect of porthole size on volume of billet and plastic force. The experiment results show that the design parameter is reasonable and simulation results are helpful to the design of die.

The aim of this paper is to determine whether the train axle cross wedge rolling(CWR) using square billet as blank is available or not. Based on numerical simulation software DEFORM-3D, we built the finite element model. And the whole forming process was simulated successfully. The stress and strain distributions of workpiece in the process were analyzed. The effect of forming angle, stretching angle and billet size on rolling force was investigated, then determined the proper process parameters. The differences between the round billet rolling and the square billet rolling were obtained by comparing the tangential, axial and radial forces during the rolling process. The studied results show the availability of using square billet as blank in train axle CWR and provide important realistic meaning and application value.
