Effect of Drawing Parameters on Elongation of Micro Copper Tube with Straight Grooves

Article Preview

Abstract:

Using high-speed oil-filled spinning and multi-pass drawing composite machining methods, a micro straight groove of copper tube(MSGCT) with an outer diameter about 3 mm~6 mm was obtained, and the forming mechanism of micro straight grooves was investigated. The key factors of process parameters influence the drawing were analyzed. The experimental results show that the values of drawing elongation increases with reduction and die angle increasing. However, drawing elongation increases firstly and then becomes smooth with drawing speed increasing. Stable-quality MSGCT can be achieved by controlling the drawing process parameters and the configurations of micro straight grooves were observed by scanning electron microscope(SEM). In addition, the high-speed oil-filled spinning and multi-pass drawing composite manufacturing can further improve the capillary force of the micro straight grooves of copper heat pipe.
