3D FE Modeling Simulation of Cold Rotary Forging with Double Symmetry Rolls

A novel metal plastic forming technology, cold rotary forging with double symmetry rolls, is presented on the basis of cold rotary forging with single roll. A reasonable 3D elastic-plastic dynamic explicit FE model of cold rotary forging with double symmetry rolls is developed under the ABAQUS software environment. Through simulation, the distributions and histories of different field-variables such as stress, strain and force and power parameters are investigated in detail. The research results not only provide an advanced and innovative technology for metal plastic forming, but also help to better understand cold rotary forging with double symmetry rolls.
