| Abstract Scope |
In this study an analytical method is developed to automatically design a multi-staged forging sequence based on the CAD file of the forged part.
The method uses artificial neural networks to analyse the geometry of the forging and to classify it into a shape class. A slicer algorithm divides the forging into cutting planes and calculates the mass distribution around its centre of gravity line. An algorithm shifts the points of the polygon courses of the cross-sectional contours and approximates the mass distribution step by step from the forging to the semi-finished product. Each preform is exported as CAD file.
The generated sequences are simulated and evaluated by form filling, folds and cracks. The conducted FE simulations showed, that the automatically generated forging sequences allow the production of different forgings. By help of the FE results, the algorithm is now refined, and the method subsequently validated by experimental forgings. |
