COMPARISON OF THE TORSION STRETCH FORGING OPERATION IN ASYMMETRIC ANVILS WITH THE STRETCH FORGING OPERATION IN COMBINED ANVILS

Abstract

The article analyzes results obtained from the numerical modeling of the torsion stretch forging operation carried out in asymmetric anvils, compared with the results obtained from the modeling of stretch forging in combined anvils. The analysis of the results has proved that the torsion stretch forging operation performed in asymmetric anvils yields a better quality forging compared to the forging obtained from the conventional forging operation carried out in combined anvils, which are now widely used in forges.
