Abstract: | Large-sized frame forging of Ti-alloy is an important forced component of aircraft. The frame forging has complicated shape
which leads to great difficulties in deformation. Some defects may be produced during the forming process such as un-filling
or overlapping. Preform design is an effective method for producing qualified forging. In this article, a new method based
on 3-D electrostatic field simulation is proposed to design preform of a large-sized frame forging of Ti-alloy and a geometric
transformation method is introduced to obtain the preform dimension. In order to select more suitable preform of large-sized
frame forging, FEM software Deform-3D is employed to simulate the isothermal forming process of designed preform. Deformation
uniformity index ψ is introduced as a criterion to judge the forging quality and the most appropriate preform is obtained
by virtual orthogonal test design. |
