> Simulating Ring Rolling Strong demand for better simulation capabilities has prompted one developer to accelerate release of a special module for ring-rolling simulation.

> Simufact Sets Up Center to Develop New Applications “Solver” center will address manufacturers’ specific simulation needs

> Commercial Debut for Simufact.forming 8.1 A new simulation software for forging and other bulk metal forming processes offers numerous improvements and a new range of functions.

> Boeing to Develop Wireless Technologies for Aerospace-Related Applications Agreement will result in formation of the Aerospace Network Research Consortium

> 2008 Looks Like a Growth Year More than 80% of the forgers surveyed indicate equipment investment plans for the coming year, and 25% have plant expansion plans.

> Study Shows Superiority of Forged Crankshafts Researchers demonstrate forged steel’s superior fatigue performance and durability versus cast iron in comparable, fully machined crankshafts.

> Ellwood City Forge Invests For Its Future Late last year, directors of Ellwood City Forge approved a new open-die forge press facility— just the latest in a series of investments for the Pennsylvania manufacturer.

> Calculating reduction on rings Q: Is there a specific formula to calculate reduction on rings and sleeves (rings drawn out on a pin)?

> The Present and Future of Forging Simulation Computer programs can predict die fill, load, energy, and defect formation. As applications advance and technology matures, simulation will continue to evolve into a daily production activity, even at the smallest forge shops.

> NFTD is Paying Off for DOD and Forgers Using the National Forging Tooling Database is proving to be a fast and easy way to locate the tools needed to forge replacement parts for the U.S. Dept. of Defense weapons systems.

> Jobshop Lean Workshop is a Winner "Lean" is identification and elimination of waste; "Waste" is any part of the system that does not provide value to the customer.

> National Forging Tooling Database Progress Report The objective is to re-establish the relationships between replacement parts for legacy weapons and the tooling held by forging companies. The database currently numbers about 100,000 tool sets, and is expected to grow by at least 50%.

> Developer Unveils New Version of Simulation Software Some new features of the latest version of Qform3D include ability to detect and show laps, improved speed and reliability, and enhanced simulation of dies.
