The invention relates to a method for creating elevations (21) in a workpiece (1) by forming techniques. In a first step, depressions (11, 12) are created, with dimensions that differ from dimensions of depressions (20) to be created between the elevations (21). In a second step, the elevations (21) are created from regions (13) between the depressions (11, 12). The invention also relates to an apparatus for implementing the method and to a product thereby created.

Provided a die lubricant rotating spray tray device, wherein the nozzles, the connecting sleeve bodies, the nozzle connecting pipes, the air pipe joints and the lubricant pipe joints are sequentially connected to form independently-communicated cavity pipelines, compressed air is input from the air pipe joints, a lubricant is input from the lubricant pipe joints, the rotation driving mechanisms drive the spray tray rotators to rotate through the transmission mechanisms, and the spray tray rotators drive the nozzles to rotate, so that the same dosage of the lubricant is sprayed on the maximum pitch circle surfaces of upper and lower dies, the aim of uniformly spraying the forging lubricant on the working surfaces of the upper and lower dies is achieved.

The present invention provides a forging and pressing production management method, comprising the steps of: A. acquiring at least one characteristic of a fed material; B. correspondingly selecting, according to the characteristic of the material, at least one of the temperature, the pressure or a mold from among operating factors of the forging and pressing process; C. transporting the material according to the selection result; and D. processing the material until a finished product is produced. The present invention enables at least one material to be formed by hot melt and forging and pressing by itself without human operation, thereby completing the mass production of the material. Operating factors such as the pressure, temperature and mold required for formation are taken into account, and the identification requirements for the material are reduced, thereby realizing large-scale production.

A manufacturing device manufactures a component having a hat-shaped section as a pad and a punch sandwiching a center portion of a metal plate, and a die and a holder sandwiching both side portions of the metal plate are moved relative to each other in the upper-lower direction. The manufacturing device includes the die, the pad provided inside an opening of the die so that the pad is able to move relative to the die, the punch arranged to face the pad in the upper-lower direction, the holder arranged around the punch so as to face the die in the upper-lower direction and be able to move downwardly, and a locking block provided on the holder. The locking block is moved from a non-facing position to a facing position and inserted between the pad and the holder after mold closing and before mold opening.

A method for manufacturing an operation rod of a wrench assembly for disassembling a fan clutch, including following steps of: preparing a rod material; fixing the rod material on a forging mold; carrying out a forging process to produce a semi-finished head; carrying out a cutout process, cutting the remainder structure out of the semi-finished head; obtaining a finished product of a head portion, the head portion including two wing plates and a shaft which are integrally formed.

A forging apparatus includes an ironing mechanism and a phase alignment mechanism. The ironing mechanism includes: a punch set, which is fitted into a cylindrical portion of a pre-processing material to be formed into the outer joint member, and is radially expandable and contractible, the cylindrical portion having grooves formed in an inner peripheral surface thereof; and a die having a hole into which the cylindrical portion is press-fitted. The phase alignment mechanism is configured to align phases of the grooves in the inner peripheral surface of the pre-processing material and phases of track groove portion forming surfaces of the punch set with each other before the pre-processing material is fitted to the punch set.
