Minimization of parts weight with improved product quality
Category:
An experience-based optimization of metal-forming process is very time-demanding and costly especially when the process design engineer aims at obtaining optimized metal flow lines (see the right). This example shows a typical process...

Enhancement of product quality with optimized metal flow lines
Category:
Metal flow lines or grain flows are very important in life-span of metal-formed products. Ito et al.(1982, ASTM, pp. 125-135) presented life-span dependence of taper roller on metal flow lines (see the bottom...
