You could do a Derived Component and work your way backwards, but forged parts differ significantly from blank to finished part.

 

Do you have physical example parts along the process?

 

I don't think you will find an Easy Button solution.

I am a student of mechanical engineering in Technological institute of Pireus Greece and i want it for my graduation Thesis. The supervising professor asked me if i could do something like the pictures above so he can determine the dissertation topic

Inventor can do it..

Typically one would start with modeling the forged part then deriving that into a new part and adding new features (extruded cuts/holes) to simulate the post forging machining that is performed on the part..

Using the derived part functionality if you make a change to the as forged part those changes will also occur on the finished part file (hopefully without issue)

 

You could also just model each one up as its own part..
