QForm at Confederation of British Metalforming event on 29th of July in the UK
Event: Forging technology elements that determine final part quality and die life
Date: Wednesday 29 June 2016, 9.30 – 16.30, National Metalforming Centre, UK
We invite you to join us for a one day event to launch CBM’s ambition of supporting forging members gain a competitive advantage through process technology. A combined day where we pull together the influencers on product quality and die-life, giving examples of latest achievements in lubrication, die material and in-press measurements together with practical demonstrations of how simulation software can identify problems in the product and die before you touch any metal.
Included:
- Overview of main reasons of premature die failure (brittle and thermal cracks, low cycle fatigue, abrasive wear).
- Forging technology analysis based on material flow simulation with prediction of die stress, temperature and deflection.
- Use of simulation to extend die life.
- Speakers from experienced suppliers.
This is a free to attend event but registration is essential. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
Predicting of a low cycle fatigue crack in the die after hot forging of 284 parts that is close to practical observation.
