Research on Influencing Factors of Magnesium Alloy Wheels Forging Forming Force

For magnesium alloy wheels have the advantages of light weight, remarkable energy saving effect, this article establishes a new technology of magnesium alloy wheels forging, and forging process is simulated through the use of FEM software. Investigate the effect of several key factors on the forming force. The results show that forming force increases with the die and material temperature reduces. and with the increase of Friction Coefficient, FEM analysis results provide guidance for the actual production.The energy consumption test shows that compared with aluminum alloy energy saving rate of road and laboratory bench test of magnesium alloy wheels respectively is 11 percent and 15.4 percent. Energy saving effect is remarkable.
