Displacement Behavior of Wood in Boss Forming Using Open-Die Wood Forging

Article Preview

Abstract:

Biomass materials such as wood are attracting renewed attention as alternative fuels in order to help resolve environmental resources caused by the use of fossil fuels. In this study, the possibility of products being processed from wood bulk was investigated by means of boss forming using open-die forging. Additionally, the difference in formability and deformation behavior during forging was investigated by changing the experimental conditions, such as the moisture content of the wood billets used, the forming pressure, and the forming temperature. The experimental results showed that wood had enough liquidity to be forged, and that two sudden and large increases in displacement occur during forging. Finally, the conditions governing these displacements were summarized from these results
