A release agent for a hot-forging die, containing micronanobubbles.

A ball screw is provided in which an outer circumferential formation is formed at a portion facing a ball circulating passage out of outer circumferential surface of a nut. The ball screw includes: a screw shaft having on its outer circumferential surface a screw groove; a nut having on its inner circumferential surface a screw groove facing the screw groove; a plurality of balls rollably loaded in a spiral ball rolling passage formed by both screw grooves; and a ball circulating passage to return the balls from a start point to an end point of the ball rolling passage for recirculation. The ball circulating passage is a concaved groove formed by concaving a groove on a part of the cylindrical inner circumferential surface of the nut by plastic working. Then, a flange is integrally provided at a portion facing the ball circulating passage and the screw groove.

A method for manufacturing a gear toothing on a metallic workpiece and a tool device for calibration of a gear toothing inlet and/or a gear toothing outlet of a gear of the metallic workpiece. The method includes producing the gear toothing by forming manufacturing and performing a compression process to calibrate a gear toothing inlet and/or a gear toothing outlet of the gear toothing, wherein a gear tooth shape and a gear tooth length are adjusted during the compression process. The tool device includes a workpiece location for accommodating the workpiece, an axially movable die selectively engageable with the gear toothing, the die supporting the gear toothing and predefining the gear tooth shape to be adjusted on the gear toothing inlet and/or on the gear toothing outlet, and at least one axially movable compression ring which calibrates the gear toothing inlet and/or gear toothing outlet by a compression process.

A molding die structure for forming oblique teeth on a rivet nut includes a mold seat, a first forging die, a second forging die, and a retaining member. The mold seat is provided with a mold cavity and a threaded portion. The first forging die is inserted into the mold cavity and provided with a die cavity and a nut cavity. The second forging die is inserted into the die cavity and has an inner face provided with an oblique toothed portion and a guide hole. The oblique toothed portion includes a plurality of oblique teeth. The retaining member is screwed into the threaded portion and limits the first forging die and the second forging die in the mold cavity. The second forging die and the die cavity of the first forging die form a low friction contact.

A description is given of a method and a device for forging a rod-shaped workpiece (5) which is deformed with the aid of forging tools (1, 2, 3, 4) in the sense of a cross-sectional displacement perpendicular to the forging axis (a) and is subjected to an axial advancement and possibly a rotation about the forging axis (a) during the pauses in the engagement of the forging tools (1, 2, 3, 4). In order to achieve an advantageous grain refinement, it is proposed that the workpiece (5) is deformed in the sense of the cross-sectional displacement perpendicular to the forging axis (a) in a bending zone (13) between two central supports (11) by means of the forging tools (1, 2, 3, 4) acting on the workpiece (5) radially in relation to the forging axis (a).
