Analysis of Bulk Metal Forming by UBET – Case Studies

The most important and in practice most frequently applied bulk metal forming processes are: forging, rolling, extrusion, drawing, upsetting and hobbing. One of the main steps in preparation and performing of bulk metal forming process is determination of optimal input parameters. Efficient way to do this is process of pre-analysis and simulation. Current paper elaborates analysis of different bulk metal forming operation by using UBET simulation: free upsetting, hobbing and open-die forging. Deformation load is determined and analysis and discussion of the results are performed. At the end, results obtained by simulation are compared to theoretical calculations.
