Forging Process
Powder forging was performed on a 1600 kN friction screw
process. The pressure was controlled at 1000 1400 Mpa during
forging. The initial forging temperature of the compact was
1100C. In order to protect the compacts from oxidizing, a 4 kVA
furnace was always filled with high purity N
2
gas during heating.
After heating for 10 min, the compact was manually removed from
the furnace and put into the hot forging die quickly. In order to void
oxidation in cooling, the forged compact was dropped into oil
directly after being ejected from the mould.

Conclusions
1. Powder forging of the motorcycle connecting rod is an
advanced process combining the advantages of
powder metallurgy and precision forging.
2. Fe-C-Cu-Mo alloy powder can exhibit execllent
physical and mechanical properties during
consolidating, sintering and powder forging.
3. The powder forging process of the connecting rod can
save much material, reduce the equipment capacity
and remove the excessive machining.
4. The research results of powder forging the P/M
motorcycle connecting rod can provide a good
reference to the powder forging of automobile
connecting rods.
