The paper illustrates the approach underlying a CAE module for the design of the tooling systems in forging technology that has been developed and implemented by the authors into a high-level parametric CAD system and, then, validated in the tool-design department of a forging company. The approach is based on the classification of possible configurations of punch- and die-side tool assemblies and combines the automatic retrieval of the tool assembly configuration for a specific stage of the press with the automatic scaling and fitting of individual tool components and assemblies thanks to the parametric modelling and pre-defined assembly rules.

Abstract
The paper illustrates the approach underlying a CAE module for the design of the tooling systems in forging technology that has been developed and implemented by the authors into a high-level parametric CAD system and, then, validated in the tool-design department of a forging company. The approach is based on the classification of possible configurations of punch- and die-side tool assemblies and combines the automatic retrieval of the tool assembly configuration for a specific stage of the press with the automatic scaling and fitting of individual tool components and assemblies thanks to the parametric modelling and pre-defined assembly rules.Pubblicazioni consigliate
