Provided is a method for producing a hot forged material capable of preventing the generation of double-barreling shaped forging defects. A method for producing a hot forged material, wherein both an upper die and a lower die are made of Ni-based super heat-resistant alloy, and a material for hot forging is pressed by the lower die and the upper die in the air to form the hot forged material, the method comprising: a raw material heating step of heating the material for hot forging in a furnace to a heating temperature within a range of 1000 to 1150 C.; a jig heating step of heating a holding jig for holding the material for hot forging within a temperature range of 50 C. lower than and 100 C. higher than the heating temperature of the material for hot forging; a die heating step of heating the upper die and the lower die to a heating temperature within a range of 950 to 1100 C.; and a transferring step of transferring the material for hot forging onto the lower die by using the holding jig attached to a manipulator after the completion of the raw material heating step, the jig heating step, and the die heating step.

A cycle is repeated a plurality of times, which includes a forging process for placing a material to be forged in a lower die and pressing the material to be forged in this state and then separating an upper die from the material to be forged; an elevation process for lifting the material to be forged by using an elevation device to separate the material to be forged from the lower die; a rotation process for rotating the material to be forged around its center by using a rotation device; and a lowering process for placing the material to be forged rotated by the elevation device in the lower die.

A moving element (21) holding a workpiece (a hub unit bearing (1)) is horizontally loaded into an internal space (23) of an exterior (17) from an external space of the outer package (17), while being guided by a guide member (20) through an opening portion (a front surface side opening portion (25)) provided in the exterior (17) constituting a rotary forging apparatus (16). After completion of the loading process, the workpiece is subjected to rotary forging, using a forming die (18).

A machine and its associated process for upset forging the ends of deformed reinforcement bars are disclosed. The machine includes 2 split clamping dies and an upsetting die, and they are housed in separate casings so that the clamping action is independent from the upsetting die. The clamping dies and the upsetting die form a continuous cavity for accommodating the forging of long bars. The upsetting die has a upsetting cavity with radial closed cross-section, and the whole forging process is performed inside this closed cavity to ensure it's a true closed-die forging process, which results in precise upset diameter with improved roundness of the rebar.
