There are many parameters to take into account which influence the press load.

Material alloy, temperature, billet shape, forging speed... The easier way is to perform a numerical computation of the forging process (requires specific softwares for that). It's also recommanded to identify the rheological behavior of the selected material if you want to get accurate results.

Either you can find some charts, based on given geometry profiles, and materials. But honestly I don't know how worth it is.

Thanks for your response.

Yes, it's to be detailed and reviewed. My views as a purchasing negotiation to understand whether a part can be done in 3T or 1TP.

I referred this website article but need to have details views on understanding the things.
