FORGING COMPLEX Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: plastic working of metals, possibly manufacture of forgings of different steels and

alloys by forging ingots with different cross section.

SUBSTANCE: forging complex includes forging press having upper and lower plates for mounting forging tool, movable table and forging tool. Table is provided with several positions for changing forging tool. The last includes tool having two strikers with flat working surface and at least one four-striker forging apparatus. Complex also includes one or two manipulators. In first position of movable table of press forging tool with two strikers is mounted. In second or in second and third positions of movable table are arranged respectively one or two four-striker forging apparatuses. Strikers of said apparatuses have working surfaces with width consisting 1.2 - 2.5 of width of working surface of strikers of tool mounted in first position. Four-striker forging apparatus arranged in third position may be designed for calibrating forgings.

EFFECT: possibility for forging ingots of large cross sections, lowered metal consumption of forging press.
