An optimization method for dimensioning hybrid passive–active die reinforcement systems in cold forging
Although cold forging enables the high-volume production of precision components, extrusion dies are exposed to severe cyclic loading. This promotes fatigue damage and dimensional scatter. Conventional shrink-fitted reinforcements increase tool life by prestressing the die in compression. However, they offer limited...
