Abstract
This study attempts to establish systematic procedures for the preform design in forging of an airfoil section blade as a two-dimensional plane-strain problem. Forward loading and backward tracing simulations by the finite element method are used. A circular shape is selected as an original stock, and a side-pressed preform of the circular shape is adopted in view of preliminary simulations using rectangular preforms. The optimal slope angle of the die parting line and the position of the preform within the die, which satisfy the final design condition of flashless forging, are determined from the results of the simulations.
