Forging Simulation course
26 February 2019This module will enable the learner to have an understanding of practical implementation of simulation for improving of forging technology. Be able to find the ways to eliminate typical forging defects and reduce material waste. Thermal conditions of hot forging process and their role in simulation. Dies deformation and its influence on the forging process simulation. Non-coupled and coupled simulation. General aims and goals of modelling of forging process. Specifics of finite element simulation using commercial software tools to model bulk metal forming processes. Material, equipment and lubricant data required for forging simulation. Basic routine to simulate forging process. More: Forging training modules
Webinar: PPE in metalforming
27 February 2019Delivered by 3M’s expert Application Engineer, Simon Field, it will discuss the hazards commonly present in metalforming environments, and how to choose the right PPE to keep metalworkers safe. The 3M work hard to deliver the most effective PPE safety solutions available. One of 3M’s passions is protecting the health and safety of workers in all types of industries and work environments; however we have a core focus of metal working. It is our role is to help solve the complex health and safety challenges faced—providing a wide range of resources and solutions a business needs each step of the way. From identifying hazards to providing education and training, we support businesses to get the job done and get workers back home safe and healthy. Register here
