Tire mold forging is a forging method that directly uses blanks or pre-forges the blanks into the shape and size required for tire forging, and then uses the tire mold to perform final forging on the free forging equipment.
In addition to the up and down flat anvils and general forging tools, tire mold forging also requires special tire molds. The tire mold is not fixed on the forging equipment. When it is used, it is placed on the lower flat anvil of the equipment. It is removed when not in use. It is easy to use, does not require installation, greatly saves the time of mold testing, and the process is flexible and diverse. It is always completed in the mold cavity. The shape and size of the wheel forging are mainly guaranteed by the tire mold. Therefore, it is possible to obtain wheel forgings with complex shapes and accurate dimensions, and the number of fires and deformation processes required for heating is also reduced, which not only improves the metal material. Utilization rate, and reduce machining man-hours, greatly improving labor productivity.
In terms of the quality of wheel forgings, due to the role of the mold during the forming process, metal deformation is limited. The forged wheel forgings have a dense structure, the quality of the wheel forgings is relatively good, the surface quality is also good, and the machining allowance is small The utilization rate of materials is greatly improved, the production efficiency is relatively high, and it is possible to forge wheel forgings with more complex shapes; it can also produce large wheel forgings on small equipment, and it can also do local molding. Based on the above advantages, tire mold forging Has been valued and favored by many manufacturers.
