Question # 1:: Production Engineering 1
Question # 1 :
Describe four dierent forging operations stating their advantages and or limi-
tations. (Illustrative sketches are necessary for the operations description.
Question # 2 :
Plot the force vs. reduction in height curve in open die forging of a cylindrical,
annealed copper specimen 1.5 in. high and 1 in. in diameter up to a reduction
of 30% for the cases of
• no friction
• µ = 0.2
• sticking friction
Question # 3 :
A rectangular workpiece has the following original dimensions 2a= 120 mm, h=
30 mm and width = 20 mm. The metal ow stress is expressed by σ = 4000.3 .
It is beign forged in plane strain were, µ = 0.2 and the reduction in height is
20%. Calculate the required press capacity to o the work.
Question # 4 :
What are the main forging defects observed in impression die forging and state
how to eliminate/ reduce them.
