Abstract

In this study, finite element simulation and the Taguchi method are employed to optimize the die stress in hot closed die forging process. Investigations are carried out for forging of automotive spring saddle by including all realistic process parameters. The research involved analyzing the effects of flash thickness, billet temperature, die temperature and friction coefficient on effective die stress by means of computer simulation. To obtain the result the forging process was modeled in CATIA V5, 3D Solid Modeling Software, simulated in DEFORMTM 3D Software, and statistically setup and examined using Taguchis orthogonal array. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is employed to determine significant parameters.
