A tie bar tensioning system that allows a bending machine operator to removably couple an upper end of a bend die post of the bending machine to a base of the bending machine via a tie bar, and to lock the tie bar in a tensioned position. The tensioning system includes a stationary member and a rotatable member, each with aligned tie bar passages for receiving the one end of the tie bar. Both the stationary member and the rotatable member include respective engagement surfaces, with the rotatable member engagement surface being rotatable relative to the stationary member engagement surface between a released position and a tensioned position whereat the rotatable member is selectively lockable. The rotation of the rotatable member with the rotatable member engagement surface in engagement with the stationary engagement surface longitudinally displacing the rotatable member relative to the stationary member.

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.

The present disclosure provides a device and a method for controllable forging of a forming flow line of a complex-shaped component. The device includes a frame, a shaping unit, a cushioning unit, and a cleaning unit, and the frame is used to mount and fix the shaping unit, the cushioning unit, and the cleaning unit; the shaping unit is used to improve a shaping capacity of processed parts; the cushioning unit is used to reduce a vibration in a metal shaping process to avoid an impact on the shaping of the metal; the cleaning unit is used to clean up a surface of a mold after shaping; when the metal is put into the mold, the metal is extruded and shaped through the shaping unit, and at the same time, the cushioning unit is used to offset the vibration generated by the shaping unit during the shaping process.
