The paper presented a new method for forming flanges on hollow parts by incremental radial extrusion. In the classic process of radial extrusion, additional rings were used to limit the free flow of material in the radial direction. The flange was formed progressively, using rings of increasing diameters. The proposed method was verified by numerical analysis and experimental tests. The numerical calculations were performed by the finite element method using the Deform-3D software package. Tubes made of aluminum alloy EN AW 6060 were used as billets. Laboratory tests were carried out using the Instron 1000 HDX testing machine. The objective of the study was to determine the validity of the proposed flange extrusion method. Results demonstrated that the new method made it possible to produce flanges with a relatively large diameter and uniform thickness, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed forming technique.

The paper presents a new method for forming a hollow shaft with a triangular rosette-shaped flange on its end. The part being investigated is used as a propeller shaft in helicopters. The product must be monolithic, therefore it cannot be produced by methods which consist in joining a flange with a tube. Up till now, such shafts have been produced by machining from solid barstock, the process which generates material losses exceeding 90%. The application of the proposed flanging method results in a significant reduction in both material and labour consumption, which leads to lower production costs. Due to beneficial texture of the shaft flange, shafts produced by this method exhibit better strength properties than shafts produced by machining. The paper presents the results of a numerical analysis of the flanging process, performed using DEFORM-3D software. Also, experimental tests were conducted using a three-slide forging press. Theoretical and experimental results obtained confirm the effectiveness of the new method for forming this part.

Abstract The paper presents the results of a theoretical analysis of a new process of hammer forging of a connecting rod and the technology currently used. In the industry at present connecting rods are forged from extruded rods. The new forging technology assumes the use of a billet in the form of a cast preform. For the calculations, it has been assumed that the billet material will be a Ø30 x 148 mm rod and a cast preform. Two variants of preforms have been modelled, from which products of the assumed geometry with different degree of strain are obtained. Calculations were made using the finite element method in the Deform 3D program. The input material was 2017A aluminium alloy in the form of rods and sand cast preforms. On the basis of the conducted research it was found that the use of cast preforms reduces material waste by about 80% in relation to the technology of forging from the bar, and reduces the energy consumption of the process by about 75%. Both geometrical variants of the forging preforms ensure obtaining a forging with the assumed shape and dimensions, although forging from the forging preform with a smaller degree of strain seems to be a safer variant in terms of the possibility of cracking of the material. This is supported by the lower strain and Cockcroft-Latham integral values.

Different ways of fixing of stepped thin-walled cylinders during honing are analyzed. The conditions for increasing the accuracy of hole machining are determined on the basis of unevenness of cylinder deformations from clamping forces and radial forces simulating cutting forces. The studies used the finite element method and the DEFORM-3D V6.1 software package. Keywords: honing, stepped thin-walled cylinder, hole, accuracy, fixing method, deformation, unevenness, DEFORM-3D V6.1 software package. [email protected]

Computer simulation of the process of ingotless rolling-extruding (IRE) of aluminum alloy rods with a content of 0.15% zirconium in the Deform 3D software package performed. The temperature, speed and deformation parameters of the treatment of the investigated alloy determined under different process conditions. To check the adequacy of the models, rod samples were made on a CRE-200 laboratory unit at specified processing parameters. Using the Deform 3D software package, the forces acting on the rolls and the extruding die during the IRE determined and their comparison with tensometric experimental data presented. The mechanical properties, electrical resistivity of semi-finished products after processing by the method of ingotless rolling-extruding and for conditions of their heating to 230 °C investigated. Technological recommendations for the manufacture of deformed semi-finished products using the method of ingotless rolling-extruding are proposed.

This article represents the results of studies of the drawing thin wire from the alloy Pd-5Ni process. The studies used the software developed by the authors using the methods of calculating the drawing process and the computer model implemented in the DEFORM 3D software package. By way of calculation, a drawing route was determined, including 14 transitions, and the efforts of deforming the metal were found when producing wire with a diameter of 0.075. For this mode of deformation processing using the DEFORM 3D software package, we simulated the drawing process and established the temperature and stress distribution over the volume of the workpiece. The simulation results confirmed that the calculated safety factor for drawing is in the range of 2.85-3.43, which ensures a stable process of deformation of the metal without breaks and, as a consequence, an increase in productivity and yield of the suitable metal. Experimental studies have confirmed the adequacy of the developed model, so it can be used to analyze the process of drawing wire from other precious metal alloys. The results of the research are recommended to improve the production technology of thin wire from the alloy Pd-5Ni for the manufacture of catalytic gripping grids.

This paper presents selected numerical and experimental results of a study investigating the process of forming hollow stepped gear shafts from tubes by rotary compression. The objective of the study was to determine whether the rotary compression process is an effective method of producing hollow stepped gear shafts and to identify limitations of this manufacturing method. A theoretical analysis involved the numerical modeling of the proposed process by the finite element method (FEM). 3D simulations were performed using the commercial simulation software package Simufact Forming. The analysis involved examining the material flow pattern along with thermal and force parameters of the process. The FEM results were verified with experimental tests conducted under laboratory conditions. The experiments were performed on a machine specially designed for the rotary compression of hollow parts. Results demonstrate that it is difficult to form a stepped gear shaft in one operation. For this reason, such parts should be formed in two operations. The first operation involves the forming of a hollow stepped shaft by rotary compression, while in the second operation, a gear is formed on one of the steps of the shaft.

The paper presents the result of the simulation of high-speed hot cutting process for ordinary and new saw geometry, using the Deform 3D software package. It was shown that the use of an additional side rake angle allows to controllably leave burr on one side of the work-piece only, and shift max stress from the saw gullets to the top of teeth.
