Abstract
The paper presents analysis of influence of change of physical parameters such as: temperature, friction coefficient and load, during the process of die forging. Optimization of the process effects in achieving high quality products, decreasing shaping resistance, and what follows – lower energy consumption. Temperature is the basic factor affecting the process of plastic working. Analyzing that influence in individual die fragments, allows to engineer the flow of shaped material. The QForm3D commercial program for finite element method calculations was used for numerical simulations. The paper presents multi-variant analysis of forging process with the usage of numerical simulation, which provided many valuable information concerning changes of key parameters, such as: temperature, stress and strain distribution and variations of technological parameters, as well as their mutual influence, difficult to obtain in analysis of industrial process.
