Modeling Friction in HyperXtrude for Hot Forward Extrusion Simulation of EN AW 6060 and EN AW 6082 Alloys

In this work, different friction models available in HyperXtrude had been investigated the context of hot forward extrusion simulation aluminum alloys. Extrusion trials were carried out for EN AW 6060 and 6082 at temperatures ram speeds. The forces as well material near exit die recorded used validation simulations. FE-simulations each trial HyperXtrude. Initially, calibrated only two trials. Then, these to simulate with process parameters. Reasonably good agreements observed between experiments simulations terms forces. However, overpredicted temperature by almost up 40 °C high speed.
