  2. IntrÖdÜcti h) Deformation processes have been designed to exploit the plasticity of engineering materials Plasticity is the ability of a material to flow as a solid without deterioration of properties Deformation processes require a large amount of force Processes include bulk flow, simple shearing, or compound bending www.fppt.info

  6. Forming Prodésgeqgnæpende tv,q$ Variables Forming processes consist of independent and dependent variables Independent variables are the aspects of the processes that the engineer or operator has direct control — Starting material — Starting geometry of the workpiece — Tool or die geometry — Lubrication — Starting temperature — Speed of operation — Amount of deformation www.fppt.info
  7. Dependent variables are those that are determined by the independent variable selection — Force or power requirements — Material properties of the product — Exit or final temperature — Surface finish and precision — Nature of the material flow www.fppt.info
  8. Independent-DepénfåenURe[aiipnships004 Independent variables- control is direct and immediate Dependent variables- control is entirely indirect — Determined by the process — If a dependent variable needs to be controlled, the designer must select the proper independent variable that changes the dependent variable www.fppt.info

  10. Process:MpdeUng Simulations are created using finite element modeling , Models predict how a material will can respond to a rolling process, fill a forging die, flow through an extrusion die, or solidify in a casting Heat treatments can be simulation Costly trial and error development cycles can be eliminated www.fppt.info
  11. Material being deformed must characterized — Strength or resistance for deformation — Conditions at different temperatures — Formability limits — Reaction to lubricants Speed of deformation and its effects Speed-sensitive materials- more energy is required to produce the same results www.fppt.info
  12. Und ér Friction and-Lübtica Metalworking Conditiofis are required to deform High forces and pressures a material For some processes, 50% of the energy is spent in overcoming friction Changes in lubrication can alter material flow, create or eliminate defects, alter surface finish and dimensional precision, and modify product properties Production rates, tool design, tool wear, and process optimization depend on the ability to determine and control friction www.fppt.info
  13. Metalforming friction differs from the friction encountered in mechanical devices For light, elastic loads, friction is proportional to the applied pressure — p is the coefficient of friction At high pressures, friction Slope = Contact pressure, P is related to the strength Figure The effect of contact pressure on the frictional resistance between two surfaces. of the weaker material www.fppt.info
  14. Friction is resistance to sliding along an interface Resistance can be attributed to: — Abrasion — Adhesion Resistance is proportional to the strength of the weaker material and the contact area www.fppt.info
  15. Surface Détérlpfåtion Surface wear is related to friction Wear on the workpiece is not objectionable, but wear on the tooling is Tooling wear is economically costly and can impact dimensional precision Tolerance control can be lost Tool wear can impact the surface finish www.fppt.info
  16. Lubrication Key to success in many metalfornmng operations Primarily selected to reduce friction and tool wear, but may be used as a thermal barrier, coolant, or corrosion retardant Other factors — Ease of removal, lack of toxicity, odor, flammability, reactivity, temperature, velocity, wetting characteristics www.fppt.info
  17. Workpiece temperature can be one Of the most important process variables—I In general, an increase in temperature is related to a decrease in strength increase in ductility, and decrease in the rate of strain hardening Hot working Cold working Warm working www.fppt.info
  18. Hot Working Plastic deformation of metals at a above the recrystallization temperature Temperature varies greatly with material Recrystallization removes the effects of strain hardening Hot working may produce undesirable reactions from the metal and its surroundings www.fppt.info
  19. Structure and Property Hot Working The size of grains upon cooling is typically uniform Undesirable grain shapes can be common (such as columnar grains) Recrystallization is followed by: — grain growth — additional deformation and recrystallization — drop in temperature that will terminate diffusion and freeze the recrystallized structure www.fppt.info
  20. I-lot Work; Engineering properties can be improved through reorienting inclusion impurities During plastic deformation, impurities tend to flow along with the base metal or fraction into rows of fragments Figure Cross section of a 4-in.-diameter case copper bar polished and etched to show the as-cast grain structure. Figure Flow structure of a hot-forged gear blank. Note how flow is parallel to all critical surfaces. (Courtesy of Bethlehem Steel Corporation, Bethlehem, PA.) www.fppt.info
  21. Temperature Varia0tiOnseirp Hot WorkingDC)4 Success or failure of a hot deformation process often depends on the ability to control temperatures Over 90% of the energy imparted to a deforming workpiece is converted to heat Nonuniform temperatures may be produced and may result in cracking Thin sections cool faster than thick sections (b) Figure Schematic comparison of the grain flow in a machined thread (a) and a rolled thread (b). The rolling operation further deforms the axial structure produced by the previous wire- or rod-forming operations, while machining simply cuts through it. www.fppt.info
  22. Col&Wprking Plastic deformation below the recrystallization temperature Advantages as compared to hot working -No heating required — Better surface finish — Superior dimensional control — Better reproducibility — Strength, fatigue, and wear are improved — Directional properties can be imparted — Contamination is minimized www.fppt.info
  23. O Disadvantages.tCold Working» Higher forces are required to initiate and complete the deformation Heavier and more powerful equipment and stronger tooling are required Less ductility is available Metal surfaces must be clean and scale-free Intermediate anneals may be i red Imparted directional properties can be detrimental Undesirable residual stresses may be produced www.fppt.info
  24. Metal Properties-ahd Cold Workingm Two features that are significant in selecting a material for cold working are — Magnitude of the yield-point stress — Extent of the strain region from yield stress to fracture Springback should also be considered when selecting a material Increase in tensile strength due to work hardening. The high-carbon steel will also have more springback.

Deformations produced at temperatures intermediate to cold and hot worh!gg Advantages - Reduced loads on the tooling and equipment — Increased material ductility - Possible reduction in the number of anneals — Less scaling and decarburization — Better dimensional precision and smoother surfaces than hot working — Used for processes such as forging and extrusion www.fppt.info

  31. o opper is being reduced from a hot-rolled 3/82in.-diameter rod to a final diameter of 0.100 in. by wire drawing through a series of dies. The final wire should have a yield strength in excess of 50,000 psi and an elongation greater than 10%. Use Figure 15-8 to determine a desirable amount of final cold work. Compute the placement of the last intermediate anneal so that the final product has both the desired size and the desired properties. 0/0 Cold Work = R.A. = { ( - Af ) / Ao 1000/0 AO = (DO)2 It (DO)2/4 = (0.375)2/4 Af = (Df)2 (Df)2/4 = (0.1 ( AO - Af ) / AO = (0.375)2/4 - (0.1 )2/4 1/ (0.375)2/4 )/0.1416 = 92.9% > It means that one step in the wire drawing process is not feasible. www.fppt.info
