Description
Cold forming tools experience significant mechanical and tribological stresses throughout their operational lifespan, which in some instances can result in premature damage to the tools. Given that these tools constitute a substantial portion of the manufacturing costs for components, it is crucial to proactively address potential issues during the design phase. The COLDFORM® software offers the ability to assess the mechanical strength of dies, thereby enhancing their longevity. It calculates stress distribution within the die, as well as monitoring deformations, wear, temperature variations, and any damage that may occur throughout the process. Furthermore, COLDFORM® can perform quick analyses by applying the stresses derived from the forming process to the tools. Additionally, the software supports coupled part/tool simulations, yielding highly accurate outcomes. With features focused on pre-stressed dies, it allows for precise assessment of the required pre-stressing for the interference fit of the tools. This capability ultimately aids manufacturers in optimizing tool performance and reducing costs associated with tool replacements.
Description
FORGE® serves as a premier software solution for simulating both hot and cold forming processes, having established itself as the flagship product of Transvalor for nearly 35 years while gaining a global customer base. This software effectively addresses the requirements of companies that manufacture forged components across various industrial domains. Among its standout features is point tracking, which facilitates the identification of cold-shut regions within the component and predicts metal fibering, a critical aspect for ensuring that the forgings exhibit excellent mechanical characteristics. It also employs advanced marking techniques to visualize segregations found at the core of the billet and to pinpoint flow-through anomalies. Furthermore, FORGE® provides forecasts for forging loads, energy consumption, torques, and the power required during each deformation process, enabling users to assess whether the demands on their equipment are acceptable, optimize the distribution of forging loads across different phases, and identify potential issues related to die balancing and deflection. With its comprehensive capabilities, FORGE® empowers manufacturers to enhance their production efficiency and product quality significantly.
