Design, Characterisation and Numerical Investigations of Additively Manufactured H10 Hybrid-Forging Dies with Conformal Cooling Channels

Internal die cooling during forging can reduce thermal loads, counteracting surface softening, plastic deformation and abrasive die wear. Additive manufacturing has great potential for producing complex geometries of the internal cooling channels. In this study, hybrid forging dies were developed co...
