The Numerical Simulation Analysis of Hydro Forming of Hollow Crankshaft

The hydro forming process of hollow crankshaft was numerically analyzed and simulated based on Dynaform. Then the influence to hydro forming process in different loading paths was studied and the match relations between optimum forming pressure and axial feeding were obtained. The forming result was ideal and the forming parts were qualified. Finally, to the same material, the change trend of pipe billet wall thickness under the same forming pressure and axial feeding was discussed.
