Yr. Li et al., A NEW MODEL FOR CALCULATING THE MAXIMUM BLOW FORCE OF A DIE-FORGING HAMMER, Journal of materials processing technology, 71(3), 1997, pp. 414-417
The blow of a die-forging hammer is analysed theoretically taking acco
unt of the elastic deformation of the cushion under the anvil block, a
nd a new equation for calculating the maximum blow force is deduced fr
om a new model proposed in the paper. The results calculated by the us
e of the equation agree well with experimental data. Thus, the equatio
n and the results provide a basis for the proper design and use of die
-forging hammers. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
