Prediction of grain size and experimental verification of hot forged bearing components
The grain size was predicted during hot forging and the validity of the results was verified. The material constants were obtained using AFDEX’s unique optimization technique for the single stage upsetting process of the three-stage process. When compared with the experimental results, it is concluded that the error is about 10%, which can be lower…

Heat treatment analysis
The AFDEX – HT was released on October 1st, 2017 in a selected country. Fig. 3 shows simulation result of a Jominy test using the 2D/ 3D heat treatment functions. Both 2D and 3D results are similar because they are all based on the stable temperature change although a quenching process was analyzed as shown…
