The Phenomenon of Durability Variable Dies for Aluminum Extrusion Profiles
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Extrusion dies are usually regenerated several times (min 4 times). The phenomenon of extended life after each regenerative nitriding process has not been explained. In this work, the regeneration process of dies used in the extrusion of aluminium profiles has been presented. In the article, it was sought to explain the cause of increased die durability after the third or fourth nitriding. Also in this work is presented an analysis of the influence of the parameters of gas nitriding with the ZeroFlow method on hardness of dies. Results were verified under industrial conditions at extrusion company, comparing the durability of the dies nitrided with the ZeroFlow method with so-far-used dies nitrided in the commercial way. An increase of the dies durability was achieved after a single ZeroFlow nitriding.

Among different SPD techniques, Equal channel Angular Pressing has attracted the most attentions, because of applying large strain to solid bulk materials. In this research, ECAP process up to 6 passes was carried out on a pure copper and a 6012 Al-Mg-Si alloy with BC route in ECAP dies with Φ=120 and Ψ=20 and diameter of 20and 10 millimeter respectively. Moreover, X-ray diffraction (XRD) syste...

متن کاملAnalysis of Axisymmetric Extrusion Process through Dies of any Shape with General Shear Boundaries
In this paper, a generalized expression for the flow field in axisymmetric extrusion process is suggested to be valid for any dies and the boundary shapes of the plastic deformation zone. The general power terms are derived and the extrusion force is calculated by applying upper bound technique for a streamlined die shape and exponential functions for shear boundaries. It is shown that assuming...
متن کاملA generalized upper bound solution for bimetallic rod extrusion through arbitrarily curved dies
In this paper, an upper bound approach is used to analyze the extrusion process of bimetallic rods through arbitrarily curved dies. Based on a spherical velocity field, internal, shearing and frictional power terms are calculated. The developed upper bound solution is used for calculating the extrusion force for two types of die shapes: a conical die as a linear die profile and a streamlined di...
