THE INTERNATIONAL FORGEMASTERS MEETING
Transvalor is will be participating in the 22nd International Forgemasters Meeting (IFM 2024) organized by AIM and Federacciai, set to take place in Milan, Italy from May 27 to 29, 2024.
IFM 2024 is expected to be a landmark event, focusing on important and current issues in the forging industry. It will be a gathering of leading experts in the field. The meeting serves as an exclusive platform for engaging with researchers, skilled technicians, and influential decision-makers from different parts of the world.
Our Technical Account Managers Federico FRACASSO and Nadine EL KOSSEIFI will be present at the exhibition booth to demonstrate the benefits of the FORGE® simulation tool and respond to any inquiries you may have about simulation in different types of forging processes.
FORGE® FOR OPEN-DIE FORGING
Forge® is a powerful simulation tool for open-die forging processes across industries, including energy. It predicts equipment capacity, component dimensions, detects flaws, and forecasts temperature distribution, strain, reduction ratio, porosity closing, and metallurgical changes. Notable features include precise workpiece movement description, complex piloting, metallurgy prediction, die analysis, and efficient computation. FORGE® seamlessly integrates with Transvalor's THERCAST® software for a complete workflow, offering insights into residual stresses, distortion, and component hardness post-open-die forging.
CASE STUDY FRISA
FORGE® has a proven track record in ring rolling, as demonstrated by its successful utilization by FRISA. Faced with the challenge of identifying a new tool geometry to minimize defects in forged components, FORGE® played a pivotal role. It not only uncovered the root causes of defects but also guided the design of optimized tool geometries. This strategic approach significantly enhances the quality and efficiency of the ring rolling forging process, benefiting companies like FRISA and others seeking reliable forging solutions.
