flow. (a) Casting by the processes described in Chapter 11. (b) Machining form a blank,
described in Part IV of this book, and (c) forging. Each process has its own advantages and
limitations regarding external and internal characteristics, material properties, dimensional
accuracy, surface finish, and the economics of production. Source: Courtesy of Forging

deformation of the billet without friction. (c) Deformation with friction. Note the
barreling of the billet caused by friction forces at the billet-die interfaces.
Cogging Operation on a Rectangular Bar

Figure 14.4 (a) Schematic illustration of a cogging operation on a rectangular bar.


Blacksmiths use this process to reduce the thickness of bars by hammering the part on an
anvil. Reduction in thickness is accompanied by barreling, as in Fig. 14.3c. (b) Reducing the
diameter of a bar by open-die forging; note the movements of the dies and the workpiece. (c)
The thickness of a ring being reduced by open-die forging.
Impression-Die Forging

Figure 14.5 (a) through (c) Stages in impression-die forging of a solid round billet. Note
the formation of flash, which is excess metal that is subsequently trimmed off (see Fig.
14.7). (d) Standard terminology for various features of a forging die.
Die Inserts

forging an automotive axle housing.
Forging a Rod, Fullering, and Edging

Figure 14.7 (a) Stages in forging a connecting rod for an internal combustion engine. Note
the amount of flash required to ensure proper filling of the die cavities. (b) Fullering and (c)
edging operations to properly distribute the material when preshaping the blank for forging.

The Coining
Process

Figure 14.10 (a) Schematic illustration of the coining process. The earliest coins were
made by open-die forging and lacked precision and sharp details. (b) An example of a
modern coining operation, showing the workpiece and tooling. Note the detail and superior
finish that can be achieve in this process. Source: Courtesy of C & W Steel Stamp Co., Inc.

Swaging with and without a Mandrel

Figure 14.15 (a) Swaging of tubes without a mandrel; note the increase in wall
thickness in the die gap. (b) Swaging with a mandrel; note that the final wall
thickness of the tube depends on the mandrel diameter. (c) Examples of cross-
sections of tubes produced by swaging on shaped mandrels. Rifling (internal
spiral grooves) in small gun barrels can be made by this process.
Metals in Decreasing Order of Forgeability
Defects in Forged Parts

Figure 14.16 Examples of defects in forged parts. (a) Laps formed by web buckling during
forging; web thickness should be increased to avoid this problem. (b) Internal defects
caused by an oversized billet. Die cavities are filled prematurely, and the material at the
center flows past the filled regions as the die closes.
Speed Ranges of Forging Equipment
Principles of Various Forging Machines

Figure 14.17 Schematic illustration of the principles of various forging machines.


(a) Mechanical press with an eccentric drive; the eccentric shaft can be replaced by
a crankshaft to give the up-and-down motion to the ram. (b) Knuckle-joint press.
(c) Screw press. (d) Hydraulic press.
Cost-per-piece in Forging

Figure 14.18 Typical (cost-per-piece) in forging; note how the setup and the tooling costs-
per-piece decrease as the number of pieces forged increases if all pieces use the same die.
Costs of a Rod Made by Forging and Casting

costs of a small connecting
rod made by various forging
and casting processes.
Note that, for large
quantities, forging is more
economical. Sand casting
is the most economical
process for fewer then
about 20,000 pieces.
