Hot close-die forging processes are broadly used in manufacturing at the present time. The researchers still not strictly answered on the significant questions about necessity and shape of intermediate steps. General algorithm for process planning support for intermediate steps designs of axisymmetric hot close-die forging parts are presented in this study. Example of using this algorithm also is included in the paper.

Thanks for contribution to IPROMS 2006. I have a question regarding the introduction. You mentioned the previous approaches are difficult to formalizing the process planning rules. Can you give more detail about how and why they are hard to apply? Thanks.
