Technological simulation of the process of hot forging of two-layer forgings with deep cavities and an inverted cone

The article delves into the technological simulation of hot forging processes for two-layer forgings with deep cavities and an inverted cone. It focuses on the use of digital simulation methods, particularly finite element analysis, to optimize the production and durability of these forgings. The study highlights the challenges and benefits of producing such forgings, including the improvement of cooling conditions and the reduction of material consumption. The authors propose a novel technological process involving separate hot forging of the inner body and outer shell, followed by joint reduction to form the final product. The research provides valuable insights into the force parameters, temperature distribution, and stress-strain conditions during the forging process, making it a crucial resource for professionals in the field.
