Abstract

A method of manufacturing a crankshaft having weight-reducing forged holes can achieve lightening and precise forming by additionally including a punching process of using an individual hydraulic press. The method includes steps of: heating a steel bar, performing busting such that the heated steel bar is disposed in a cavity of a mold to be produced as a first intermediate shape of a crankshaft, performing brokering such that the first intermediate shape is produced as a second intermediate shape, performing finishing such that the second intermediate shape is produced as a third intermediate shape, performing trimming such that the third intermediate shape is produced as a complete shape of the crankshaft by cutting portions other than the shape of the crankshaft, and performing punching such that holes are formed in the complete shape of the crankshaft.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims under 35 U.S.C. §119(a) the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2016-0057762, filed on May 11, 2016 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a crankshaft having weight-reducing forged holes, and more particularly, to a method of manufacturing a crankshaft, capable of achieving lightening and precise forming and having improved durability by additionally including a punching process of using an individual hydraulic press.2. Description of the Related Art[0003]In recent years, improvement in fuel efficiency has become important and antipollution measures have been increasingly enforced in the vehicle industry.
