Forged part made of Cold heading quality wire materials are used for automotive brake systems. The cost reduction of forged products is a major issue because of the strict shape change. A series of studies were conducted to minimize the cost of EPB spindle process among brake parts. In order to reduce the material cost, heat treatment-abbreviated material was applied and the formability on the processes was verified by the ductile fracture theory. In addition, the causes of shape fixation and die life degradation were analyzed using the numerical simulation. The process cost has been minimized by re-designing process, changing the product shape, and the die material.
