The Research and Optimization of a 6061 Aluminum Rectangular Tube Extrusion Using Porthole Dies According to the Parameter of Split Ratio

Article Preview

Abstract:

Extrusions of a 6061 aluminum rectangular tube using porthole dies with three assigned different split ratios were simulated by the software DEFORM-3D based on Finite element method. The distributions of stress, equivalent strain rate, temperature, velocity of the deformation materials and the mold stress during the three extrusion processes were obtained, respectively. By analyzing the distributions of those fields, the most reasonable split ratio is selected and then the die structure is modified.
