As a process for producing seamless tubes, the tandem skew rolling (TSR) process was proposed. In order to study deformation characteristics and mechanism on tubes obtained by the TSR process, a numerical simulation of the process was analyzed using Deform-3D software. Simulation results demonstrated the distribution of stress, strain, velocity, and temperature of a seamless tube in the stable stage during the TSR process. Actual experiments of carbon steel 1045, high strength steel 42CrMo, and magnesium alloy AZ31 were carried out in a TSR testing mill. The results demonstrated that the TSR process is qualified for producing tubes of high quality, with an accuracy of ±0.2 mm in wall thickness and ±0.35 mm in diameter. This process is suitable for manufacturing seamless tubes that are difficult to deform or that have been deformed in a narrow range of temperature.

The ball defects generated in skew rolling process have restricted to large extent the further application of skew rolling technology in ball manufacturing industry. Research was carried out so as to find the factors and laws of influencing on skew rolling ball quality. It was found by analyzing the forces exerting on the ball that the deforming velocity of ball had the largest influence on the resistance to deformation. Simulations were done respectively under different roller obliquities, different distances between two guide plates, and different rotation speeds of rollers by means of DEFORM-3D software. Finally, the influencing factors and laws on ball quality were discovered.

The paper analyzes the influence of tension (dam) on the technological parameters of the rolling process (spreading, force and rolling torque). For the analysis, a model of continuous rolling in three adjacent stands was developed, using the Deform 3D software. The adequacy of the model was confirmed by comparing the experimental data from the small-section wire mill 150 and the simulation results. The error in determining the forming was 0.4%, and in determining the power parameters was 11%. Further, a computational experiment was planned, to identify the effect of mismatched of rolling speeds on technological parameters. According to the results of calculations, graphs of changes in technological parameters were constructed. It is established that, even small deviations of rolling speed from the matched mode lead to significant changes in technological parameters.

This paper has successfully developed an integrated automatic taper-tipped die-plates construction system via linking the design table functions in Microsoft Excel underlying SolidWorks CAD software. The developed system can be used to generate 3D thread-rolling die-plate geometry in STL format for further screw thread-rolling process FEA simulations by using DEFORM 3D software. This has concluded that the quality of a taper-tipped screw depends mostly on the die-plate design at the pre-rolling portion.

Drawing speed is one important process in production over-head line, deform 3d software is used to simulate the drawing process. The distribution of stress-strain and temperature in different drawing speed with die angle and friction coefficient was investigated. The results shows that the aluminum conductors can be used in high speed drawing when die angle, drawing speed and frication coefficient of first pass is about11~13 degrees, 4~6m/s and 0.08~0.10 respectively, the uniformity of stress-strain and temperature is better for producing good quality over-head wires with high cold-drawing speed.

The paper presents chosen aspects of the skew rolling process of hollow stepped products with the use of a skew rolling mill designed and manufactured at the Lublin University of Technology. This machine is characterized by the numerical control of spacing between the working rolls and the sequence of the gripper axial movement, which allows for the individual programming of the obtained shapes of parts such as stepped axles and shafts. The length of these zones and the values of possibly realizable cross-section reduction and obtained outlines are the subject of this research paper. The chosen results regarding the influence of the technological parameters used on the course of the process are shown in the present study. Numerical modelling using the finite element method in Simufact Forming, as well as the results of experimental tests performed in a skew rolling mill, were applied in the conducted research. The work takes into account the influence of cross-section reduction of the hollow parts and the feed rate per rotation on the metal flow mechanisms in the skew rolling process. The presented results concern the obtained dimensional deviations and changes in the wall thickness determining the proper choice of technological parameters for hollow parts formed by the skew rolling method. Knowledge about the cause of the occurrence of these limitations is very important for the development of this technology and the choice of the process parameters.

In this paper, in order to improve the microstructure uniformity of an ultra-high strength martensitic steel with a strength greater than 2500 MPa developed by multi-directional forging in the laboratory, a single-pass hot compression experiment with the strain rate of 0.01 to 1 s−1 and a temperature of 800 to 1150 °C was conducted. Based on the experimental data, the material parameters were determined, the constitutive model considering the influence of work hardening, the recrystallization softening on the dislocation density, and the recrystallized grain size model were established. After introducing the model into the finite element software DEFORM-3D, the thermal compression experiment was simulated, and the results were consistent with the experimental results. The rule for obtaining forging stock with a uniform and refinement microstructure was acquired by comparing the simulation and the experimental results, which are helpful to formulate an appropriate forging process.
