Quantitative and Qualitative Assessments of the Forces Influence on the Press Equipment Guiding Elements

The force effect on the guide elements of the forging and pressing equipment of transverse forces is considered, taking into account the accompanying factors—gaps in the guides of the equipment and the eccentricity of the applied load that occur when performing metal forming operations. The method of modeling of the system, the stages of creating of a model are presented, the results of research are given, the main conclusions and recommendations are given, taking into account which will improve the quality of products obtained by forming operations and improve the performance of forging and pressing equipment and the tools used on it.
