The microstructure of forged products significantly impacts their properties, and defects or carbide distribution are not visible to the naked eye. Isothermal compression tests on M50 steel with a Gleeble 3500 tester were conducted study behavior during forging. Tests examined hot deformation within temperature range 900–1200 °C strain rate 0.01–10 s?1. Power dissipation efficiency (?) flow ins...

Hybrid manufacturing (HM) Ti-6Al-4V components combining the advantages of forging and additive were achieved. The bonding zone HMed component joins substrate manufactured its α′-α/α′/αm-α/β heterogeneous microstructure was attributed to distinguishing cooling rate pseudo-isothermal annealing temperature. phase transformation mechanisms clarified with a numerical simulation model for thermal an...

Forging is a manufacturing process that consists of shaping the metal using localized compression forces. The blows are delivered with a hammer (often an electric hammer) or a die. In this paper, different methods of forging (multi-directional forging, hot forging, near-beta forging, multi-axial forging, direct powder forging, warm forging and ring forging) are discussed. The main problems that...
