The cold closed-die forging process of the gear is a kind of new technique of the precise forming of gear in recent years. In this paper, the cold closed-die forging process of differential satellite gear in car was analyzed through numerical simulation method. Forming mold was designed with Pro/E Wildfire2.0 which included four components : upper punch, lower punch, tooth shape upper die and lower die for Normal Cone. The three-dimensional models of satellite bevel gear mould were built and imported into numerical simulation software DEFORM-3D. Because the gear has the uniform circumferential features, in order to save time and improve the accuracy, only one tooth was simulated, and the full simulation outcome of 10 teeth was mirrored from this one. Through the numerical simulation analysis of DEFORM-3D, the instantaneous deformation and stress filed were gained. Forming defects were forecasted and the cold closed-die forging rule for satellite gear used in car was obtained which can provide effective references for no-flash cold forging process of planet bevel gear and the mold design.

There is a large number of methods for severe plastic deformation (SPD). Multidirectional forging (MDF) is probably one of the most easily scalable for industrial application. In general, two main conditions need to be fulfilled for successful SPD processing: constant sample geometry and application of a quasi-hydrostatic pressure. The first condition is necessary for strain accumulation by repetitive deformation and the second one helps preventing cracking in the specimens with high accumulated strain. However, MDF is not providing quasi-hydrostatic condition in the processed sample. This paper reports a novel method for severe plastic deformation, namely continuous closed die forging (CCDF), which fulfils both requirements for the successful deformation of samples to a very high accumulated strain. Commercially pure aluminum (1050) was processed to a total strain of 24 by CCDF. After processing, the microstructure was refined down to a mean grain size of 0.78 μm. Tensile testing showed good mechanical properties: yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of the ultrafine-grained aluminum were 180 and 226 MPa, respectively. Elongation to rupture was about 18%. The microstructure, microhardness and grain boundary statistics are discussed with regard to the high mechanical properties of the UFG aluminum processed by this novel method.

Forging is a process of forming metals which leads to the deforming of work piece through its pressing. Shape and the number of pre-forms are the most significant issues in designing the process of closed die forging. The criteria for producing the pre-forms are creating a faultless die, fully the die completely, and homogenous deformation. In this study simulation in the designing the forging process of connecting rod via Pro/Engineer software and optimization of pre-form die and its analysis through the use of SuperForge software were investigated. Concerning the results, the simulation forging of connecting rod, power and energy of each phase and the effects of other significant factors such as temperature can be explored.
