Influence of Anvil Geometry on Stretching Process of Cylinder Forging with Materials Properties in Materials Engineering

Abstract

Stretching is a commonly used process to manufacture forgings with good quality. In this paper, the stretching process of cylinder forging with materials properties in materials engineering was investigated by finite element method. The metal flow law of cylinder stretching process was studied, based on the simulation and analysis of the effect of tool geometry like flat and V-shaped anvils on strain and stress distribution state in the forging. The reasonable tool geometry for stretching was V-shaped anvil.
