    Abstract: A heating method, a heating apparatus, and a hot press holding method for a plate workpiece are provided. The plate workpiece has a first region and a second region. A cross sectional area of the first region in a widthwise direction of the plate workpiece is substantially uniform along a longitudinal direction of the plate workpiece or is monotonically increased or decreased along the longitudinal direction. The second region is adjoining a portion of the first region in a monolithic manner. The method includes heating the second region, and heating at least the first region by direct resistance heating along the longitudinal direction. The second region is heated before heating the first region such that the first region and the second region are heated to be in a given temperature range.

    Abstract: A wire heating system includes an induction heating apparatus having a power supply and an induction coil arranged to heat a wire rod by an induction heating using current supplied from the power supply, and a controller configured to control the current to be supplied to the induction coil based on a feeding speed of the wire rod. The induction heating apparatus has a heating section in which the wire rod is heated by the induction heating using the induction coil, and a soaking section located downstream of the heating section to homogenize the temperature distribution of the induction-heated wire rod. The controller is configured to control the current to be supplied to the induction coil such that a temperature of the wire rod at a downstream end of the soaking section becomes a target temperature.

    Abstract: A method for setting conditions for a shaft diameter enlargement, a shaft diameter enlargement method, and a shaft diameter enlargement apparatus are provided. A controller of the shaft diameter enlargement apparatus controls a compressing section, a bending section, and a rotating section to enlarge an intermediate portion of a shaft workpiece to have a predetermined outer diameter by rotating the shaft workpiece about its axis with axial compressive force a bending angle being applied to the intermediate portion. The controller determines whether the shaft workpiece is acceptable, based on the number of rotations of die shaft workpiece required for enlarging the intermediate portion to have the predetermined outer diameter or based on an enlargement ratio of the intermediate portion.

    Abstract: A direct resistance heating simulation method is provided. In this method, a welding region and its peripheral region of steel sheets to be welded by a pair of electrodes are divided into a plurality of elements. A coupled analysis is performed such that a temperature, a metal structure, stress and strain at each element are determine in a mutually associated manner based on Joule loss obtained through a current analysis and a magnetic field analysis for each element. The coupled analysis is repeated to predict an effect of one or more parameters, including at least one of a frequency, a magnitude and an application time of electric current to be applied to the electrodes, a cooling time, a pressure applied from the electrodes to the steel sheets and a shape of the electrodes, on welding quality after a post-heating by direct resistance heating and to improve weld strength.

    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for manufacturing a stepped member are provided. An intermediate portion of a shaft workpiece is radially enlarged while being compressed in an axial direction by applying alternating load to the intermediate portion in a direction intersecting the axial direction in a state in which pressure that compresses the shaft workpiece in the axial direction is applied to both ends of the shaft workpiece. The enlarged intermediate portion of the shaft workpiece is cat in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction so that the shaft workpiece is divided into two stepped members. Each of the stepped members has a shaft portion and a head portion provided at an axial end of the shaft portion, and the head portion has a larger diameter than the shaft portion.
