Reading Assignment:
Groover Textbook Chapter 3.2.1 (Hardness Tests), Chapter 18, and Chapter 19.3.1
(Open Die Forging)
Learning Objectives:
Students will be able to:
Determine the influence of cold work versus hot work in a forging/upsetting process
(design for manufacture)
Understand the process steps, operation sequences, labor requirements, production
rate, and equipment involved in typical forging operation (process planning)
Recognize important attributes of the raw materials, process methods, and finished
products, and identify methods for and assessing (measuring) those attributes
(problem solving and continuous improvement)
Procedure:
Part I – Cold Forging/Upsetting
