The
ICFG consists of subgroups, each active in a particular sub-division of
the main fields of interest. Themes include the most relevant and
innovative aspects of cold forging processes related to materials,
lubrication, dies, design, processes and numerical simulation.
Currently there
are 4 active subgroups:
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Influences
of surface finishing on tool life & quality, surface topography
before and
after surface finishing, technologies for surface finishing, fatigue.
The subgroup
collects and disseminates facts about technologies and strategies
regarding tool
design, tool manufacturing and tool life management.

 |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Residual
stresses, strain hardening, minimization of operations, dimensional
accuracy, distortion, grain structure, machinability, light weight
design.
