Abstract
The main subject of the present work is investigation of possibility of extension of classical orbital forging technology to obtain more cost effective forging process. Orbital forging is the process used for forging of shaped parts by applying the incremental forging method. Results of simulation of orbital forging are compared in the present work with the result obtained from a conventional forging process. 3D finite element (FE) simulations are used in the present project to evaluate the capabilities of the orbital forging process and proper die design, and to predict the forging loads the. Selected results of simulations are presented in the paper. These results are the basis for the further comparison and discussion about possible modifications of conventional orbital forging approach.
