Influence of eccentricity of double eccentricity sleeves on the movements of swing head in rotary forging press

Abstract

Rotary forging is an innovative incremental metal forming process, In a rotary forging press with double eccentricity sleeves, the eccentricity of double eccentricity sleeves has significant effects on the movements of swing head. The internal and external eccentricity of the existing rotary forging machine is equal, except circular path, the rotation speed of internal and external eccentric sleeves for the rose curve, spirals curve and straight line is not equal, which will produce the oscillation centrifugal force during the forming process and cause the violent shaking on the machine. The shaking of the machine has an important influence on the life of the equipment parts machining accuracy and surface profile of parts, reducing the production efficiency. This paper proposes a method to reduce shaking by changing eccentricity and studied the influence of unequal eccentricity on the movements of swing head obtained the design relationship of internal and external sleeves eccentricity, which can reduce the shaking in rotary forging press. This study improving the working state of the rotary forging machine and economic benefits.
