Introduction • Practically all metals, which are not used in cast form are
reduced to some standard shapes for subsequent processing.
• Manufacturing companies producing metals supply metals in form of ingots which are obtained by casting liquid metal into a square cross section.
• Slab (500-1800 mm wide and 50-300 mm thick)
• Billets (40 to 150 sq mm)
• Blooms (150 to 400 sq mm)
• Sometimes continuous casting methods are also used to cast the liquid metal into slabs, billets or blooms.
• These shapes are further processed through hot rolling, forging or extrusion, to produce materials in standard form such as plates, sheets, rods, tubes and structural sections.

Metal forming processes
• Large group of manufacturing processes in which
plastic deformation is used to change the shape of
metal work pieces
• The tool, usually called a die, applies stresses that
exceed the yield strength of the metal
– The metal takes a shape determined by the
geometry of the die

Basic Types of
Metal Forming Processes
1. Bulk deformation – Rolling processes
– Forging processes
– Extrusion processes
– Wire and bar drawing
2. Sheet metalworking – Bending operations
– Deep or cup drawing
– Shearing processes
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE

Temperature in Metal Forming
• Any deformation operation can be accomplished with
lower forces and power at elevated temperature
• Three temperature ranges in metal forming:
– Cold working
– Warm working
– Hot working
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Hot and cold working processes
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Cold Working
• Performed at room temperature or slightly
above
• Many cold forming processes are important
mass production operations
• Minimum or no machining usually required
–These operations are near net shape or net
shape processes
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Advantages of Cold Forming
• Better accuracy, closer tolerances
• Better surface finish
• Strain hardening increases strength and
hardness
• Grain flow during deformation can cause
desirable directional properties in product
• No heating of work required
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Disadvantages of Cold Forming
• Higher forces and power required for deformation
• Surfaces of starting work must be free of scale and dirt
• Ductility and strain hardening limit the amount of forming that can be done – In some cases, metal must be annealed before further
deformation can be accomplished
– In other cases, metal is simply not ductile enough to be cold worked
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Hot Working • Deformation at temperatures above the re crystallization
temperature.
• The process of formation of new grains is called
recrystallisation process and corresponding temperature is
called recrystallisation temperature
– Recrystallization temperature = about one-half of melting
point on absolute scale
• In practice, hot working usually performed somewhat
above 0.5Tm
• Metal continues to soften as temperature increases
above 0.5Tm, enhancing advantage of hot working
above this level
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Advantages of Hot Working
• Work piece shape can be significantly altered
• Lower forces and power required
• Metals that usually fracture in cold working can be hot formed
• Strength properties of product are generally isotropic
• No strengthening of part occurs from work hardening – Advantageous in cases when part is to be subsequently
processed by cold forming
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Disadvantages of Hot Working
• Lower dimensional accuracy
• Higher total energy required, which is the sum of
– The thermal energy needed to heat the workpiece
– Energy to deform the metal
• Work surface oxidation (scale)
– Thus, poorer surface finish
• Shorter tool life
– Dies and rolls in bulk deformation

Bulk Deformation Processes
Rolling: Compressive deformation process in which the thickness of a
plate is reduced by squeezing it through two rotating cylindrical
rolls.
Forging: The work piece is compressed between two opposing dies so
that the die shapes are imparted to the work.
Extrusion: The work material is forced to flow through a die opening
taking its shape
Drawing: The diameter of a wire or bar is reduced by pulling it through
a die opening (bar drawing) or a series of die openings (wire
drawing)

Sheet Metal working
• Forming and related operations performed on metal sheets, strips, and coils
• High surface area-to-volume ratio of starting metal, which distinguishes these from bulk deformation
• Often called press working because presses perform these operations
– Parts are called stampings
– Usual tooling: punch and die

Friction in Metal Forming
• In most metal forming processes, friction is
undesirable:
– Metal flow is retarded
– Forces and power are increased
– Wears tooling faster
• Friction and tool wear are more severe in hot working
• if the co efficient of friction is very high, that
condition is called as sticking or sticking friction
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Lubrication in Metal Forming • Metal working lubricants are applied to tool-work
interface in many forming operations to reduce harmful effects of friction
• Lubricant for cold working processes are mineral oil, fats and fatty oils, soaps
• Lubricants for hot working processes are mineral oils, graphite, moltan glass etc
• Benefits:
– Reduced sticking, forces, power, tool wear
– Better surface finish
– Removes heat from the tooling

Hot rolling
• Deformation process in which work thickness is
reduced by compressive forces exerted by two
opposing rolls
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
• The cross section of the work piece is reduced by the process. The material gets squeezed between a pair of rolls, as a result of which the thickness gets reduced and the length gets increased.
• Mostly, rolling is done at high temperature, called hot rolling because of requirement of large deformations. Hot rolling results in residual stress-free product.
• Bloom is has a square cross section, with area more than 230 cm2. A slab, also from ingot, has rectangular cross-section, with area of at least 100 cm2 and width at least three times the thickness. A billet is rolled out of bloom, has at least 40 mm X 40 mm cross-section.
• Blooms are used for rolling structural products such as I-sections, channels, rails etc. Billets are rolled into bars, rods. Bars and rods are raw materials for extrusion, drawing, forging, machining etc. Slabs are meant for rolling sheets, strips, plates etc.

Types of rolling mills
• Rolling Mills
• Equipment is massive and expensive
• Rolling mill configurations:
Two-high – two opposing rolls
Three-high – work passes through rolls in both
directions
Four-high – backing rolls support smaller work rolls
Cluster mill – multiple backing rolls on smaller rolls
Tandem rolling mill – sequence of two-high mills

NASHIK
Forging process
• Forging is a process in which the work piece is shaped by compressive forces applied through various dies and tools. It is one of the oldest metalworking operations. Most forgings require a set of dies and a press or a forging hammer.
• Unlike rolling operations, which generally produce continuous plates, sheets, strip, or various structural cross-sections, forging operations produce discrete parts.
• Typical forged products are bolts and rivets, connecting rods, shafts for turbines, gears, hand tools, and structural components for machinery, aircraft, railroads and a variety of other transportation equipment.
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
• Depending upon complexity of the part forging is carried out as open
die forging and closed die forging.
• In open die forging, the metal is compressed by repeated blows by a
mechanical hammer and shape is manipulated manually.
• In closed die forging, the desired configuration is obtained by
squeezing the work piece between two shaped and closed dies.
• On squeezing the die cavity gets completely filled and excess material
comes out around the periphery of the die as flash which is later
trimmed.
• Press forging and drop forging are two popular methods in closed die
forging.
• In press forging the metal is squeezed slowly by a hydraulic or
mechanical press and component is produced in a single closing of die,
hence the dimensional accuracy is much better than drop forging.
• Both open and closed die forging processes are carried out in hot as
well as in cold state.

Open-Die Forging
• Compression of work piece between two flat dies
• Deformation operation reduces height and increases
diameter of work
• Common names include upsetting or upset forging or
cogging
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Open-Die Forging with No Friction
• If no friction occurs between work and die surfaces,
then homogeneous deformation occurs, so that radial
flow is uniform throughout work piece height

diameter, 2. partial compression, 3. final size.
Open-Die Forging with Friction
• Friction between work and die surfaces constrains
lateral flow of work, resulting in barreling effect.
• In hot open-die forging, effect is even more pronounced
due to heat transfer at and near die surfaces, which
cools the metal and increases its resistance to
deformation
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
Impression-Die Forging or closed die forging
• Compression of work part by dies with inverse of desired part
shape
• Flash is formed by metal that flows beyond die cavity into small
gap between die plates
• Flash serves an important function:
As flash forms, friction resists continued metal flow into gap,
constraining material to fill die cavity
In hot forging, metal flow is further restricted by cooling against
die plates

Extrusion • A plastic deformation process in which metal is forced under
pressure to flow through a single, or series of dies until the
desired shape is produced.
• Process is similar to squeezing toothpaste out of a toothpaste tube
• In general, extrusion is used to produce long parts of uniform
cross sections
• Typical products made by extrusion are railings for sliding doors,
tubing having carious cross-sections, structural and architectural
shapes, door and windows frames.

(1)Direct Extrusion (Forward Extrusion)
(2)Indirect Extrusion (Backward Extrusion)
(3)Cold Extrusion
(4)Hot Extrusion
• Direct Extrusion
• Billet is placed in a chamber and forced through a die opening
by a hydraulically-driven ram or pressing stem.
• Dies are machined to the desired cross-section

• Indirect Extrusion
• Metal is forced to flow through the die in an opposite
direction to the ram’s motion.
• Lower extrusion force as the work billet metal is not
moving relative to the container wall.
• Limitations
• Lower rigidity of hollow ram
• Difficulty in supporting extruded product as it exits die

Drawing • Commonly used to make wires from round bars
• Large quantities of wires, rods, tubes and other sections are
produced by drawing process which is basically a cold
working process.
• In this process the material is pulled through a die in order to
reduce it to the desired shape and size.
• In a typical wire drawing operation, once end of the wire is
reduced and passed through the opening of the die, gripped
and pulled to reduce its diameter.
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE
NASHIK
• Drawing is an operation in which the cross-section of
solid rod, wire or tubing is reduced or changed in shape
by pulling it through a die. Drawn rods are used for
shafts, spindles, and small pistons and as the raw material
for fasteners such as rivets, bolts, screws.
• Drawing also improves strength and hardness when these
properties are to be developed by cold work and not by
subsequent heat treatment.

• Wire drawing machines consisting of multiple draw
dies (typically 4 to 12) separated by accumulating
drums
Each drum (capstan) provides proper force to draw
wire stock through upstream die
Each die provides a small reduction, so desired
total reduction is achieved by the series
28/07/2016 PROF. V.V.SHINDE NDMVP'S KBT COE

• Die Materials
Commonly used materials are Tool Steels and
Carbides
Diamond dies are used for fine wire.
For improved wear resistance, steel dies may be
chromium plated, and carbide dies may be coated
with titanium nitride
For Hot drawing, cast-steel dies are used

Tube drawing
• Tube drawing is also similar to wire drawing, except that a
mandrel of appropriate diameter is required to form the
internal hole.
• The process reduces the diameter and thickness of the tube.
• Tube drawing is very similar to bar drawing, except the
beginning stock is a tube. It is used to decrease the diameter,
improve surface finish and improve dimensional accuracy.
• A mandrel may or may not be used depending on the
specific process used.
• Here two arrangements are shown in figure (a) with a
floating plug and (b) with a moving mandrel
