A multistage press for the bulk deformation of a piece of wire includes a wire feed with associated apparatus for cutting to length, and a transfer device—having grippers—for receiving a piece of wire that has been cut to length and transferring the latter to subsequent forming stages, there being arranged, on that side of the cutting-to-length apparatus opposite from the wire feed, a device for partially heating a length of wire. A method produces a formed part with a multistage press of this type.

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 method for manufacturing a blade, the method includes casting a nickel alloy blade precursor having an airfoil and a root. The airfoil and the root are solution heat treating differently from each other. After the solution heat treating, the root is wrought processed. After the wrought processing, an exterior of the root is machined.

A method for forming a QCr0.8 alloy tapered cylindrical ring, including: heating a standard QCr0.8 alloy cylindrical part followed by upsetting and stretching at least twice to obtain a primary blank; heating the primary blank followed by upsetting and chamfering to obtain a secondary blank, where a diameter of a top end is greater than that of a bottom end; subjecting the secondary blank to backward extrusion to form a preform; machining the preform to remove a flash and a bottom residue; subjecting a bottom end of the preform to local bulging to enable a shape and a size thereof to match that of a drive roller in a forming tooling, so as to form a profiled ring blank; and rolling the profiled ring blank by a radial-axial ring rolling machine with the forming tooling to form the tapered cylindrical ring.
