Yamanaka Engineering is the sole authorized dealer in Japan for importing and selling DEFORM, the 3D FE simulator developed by SFTC in the United States. This simulator software for plastic forming has a proven track record as evidenced by its numerous users.

With its user-friendly, enhanced user interface, many environment condition settings to choose from, and a rapid development cycle, DEFORM is used worldwide for a wide range of applications due to its ability to handle everything from simple, standard analysis to complex, advanced-level analysis.

Using a complex mechanism, the closed forging process is one forging method for producing high-precision, high-value-added products.

Conventionally, either the hydraulic press or the die-set with a hydraulic device was used, but both methods were expensive and were plagued with low productivity. Yamanaka Engineering has developed a mechanical closed device to enable low-cost, high-speed production while maintaining the operability at the level of an ordinary die-set.

In addition, their device can be installed on a mechanical press without requiring any special equipment. It also allows the production of high-precision forged products independent of the precision of the press.
