INTRODUCTION
• A wrench or a spanner is a tool to provide grip and mechanical advantage in
applying torque to turn objects.
• The most common shapes are called open ended spanner.
• Die is an impression or an opposite machined copy of an existing shape or
complex structure(generally a ceramic or highly treated metal)used to repeatedly
mimic the desired product shape in a press.
• We are going to make a die for spanner.
• Forging process is used to make the tools so we discuss about forging in this.
• We will be using closed forging so we mainly focus on it .
FORGING
• Plastic deformation:- when forces are applied to a material causing it
to take on new shape. Basis for all forming process.
• Forging is forming method which shapes a metal part through
controlled plastic deformation.
• There is two type of forging on basis of shape.
Open die forging
closed-die forging
OPEN DIE FORGING
• Open-die forging is carried out
between flat dies or dies of very
simple shape.
• • The process is used for mostly
large objects or when the
number of parts produced is
small.
• • Open-die forging is often used
to perform the work-piece for
closed- die forging.
CLOSED FORGING DIE
• The work-piece is deformed
between two die halves which
carry the impressions of the
desired final shape.
• The work-piece is deformed under
high pressure in a closed cavity.
Normally used for smaller
components
• The process provide precision
forging with close dimensional
tolerance.
• Closed dies are expensive.
OPRATION OF FORGING
• Drawing Down: Drawing down is a process of elongate the length and
reduce the cross section area of work piece. Simply in this operation, the
length of work piece increases and the cross section area decreases. In this
process, a compressive force is applied at perpendicular direction of its
length axis. If a tensile force is applied to change its length at parallel to its
length axis, this process is known as wire drawing.
OPERATIONS OF FORGING
• Upsetting:
Upsetting is just opposite operation to drawing down. In this operation,
the length of work piece decreases and its cross section area increases.
In this process, a compressive force is applied at parallel direction to its
length axis.
TYPES OF FORGING ACCORDING TO TEMPERATURE
Die materials: alloyed steels (with Cr, Mo, W, V), tool steels, cast steels or cast iron. (Heat treatments such are
nitriding or chromium plating are required to improve die life)
NOTE:1) Carbon steels with 0.7-0.85% C are appropriate for small tools and flat impressions.
2) Medium-alloyed tool steels for hammer dies.
3) Highly alloyed steels for high temperature resistant dies used in presses and horizontal forging machines
