Die Life Prediction of Connecting Rod SIFL-175

Abstract

This work mainly focuses on the life prediction of hot forging dies of connecting rod SIFL-175. This prediction helps the forging industry in estimating the quantity of products forged before reworking or resinking and thereby can supply the forgings to the customer at reasonable lower price and this will also escalating the demand from the customer. The prediction of die life is vital to satisfy demands for lower cost and shorter production preparation times. The prediction helps the company to make an accurate production planning process and can take necessary steps and actions to utilize the maximum quantity of products before die failures.
