Abstract:

This paper presents the technology of forging of the Putanker 1.3 T fastener type by the TR method and the results of modelling the wear of the tools used in this process. A preliminary analysis showed abrasive wear to be the dominant wear mechanism in the first forging operation. Numerical modelling by means of the MARC computing software package was carried out to predict the wear of the tools in the forging of the Putanker fastener. The changes in the shape of the dies surface after the forging of 2200, 6500, 9600 and 23500 pieces were determined by surface scanning. The Archard model was used to describe the abrasive wear.
