Simulation of the Co-Extrusion of Hybrid Mg/Al Profiles

Abstract:

Extrusion of composite materials can offer big advantages. In this work the manufacturing of a hybrid metal profile in a single production step was investigated. A porthole die was used, thus producing profiles with extrusion seams. Along the seams a material mix up was visible. The extrusion process was simulated with the Finite Element Method to investigate the material flow in die and welding chamber in order to understand the cause for the defects at the seams.
