Aluminum AA6063 material was the billet material, tempera- ture of the billet was 450 °C and ram speed was selected as 5 mm/sec. The die design was obtained according to the shape of the bridges of the porthole die. Finally, the design optimization was achieved by analyzing FEM results. It was obtained that the dies which have curved bridges offer optimum process conditions. Keywords: Porthole Die Extrusion, FEM, Aluminum 6063, stress distribution, die deflection.

Received: 26 July 2018; Accepted: 20 August 2018; Published: 23 August 2018 Abstract: The design of a porthole die is one of the key technologies for producing aluminum profiles. For an aluminum profile with high length–width ratio and small cavity, it is difficult to control the metal flow through porthole die with the same velocity to ensure the die’s strength. In the present study, the porthole die extrusion process of aluminum profile with small cavity was simulated using HyperXtrude 13.0 software based on ALE formulation. The simulation results show for the traditional design scheme, the metal flow velocity in porthole die at every stage was severely not uniform. The standard deviation of the velocity (SDV) at the die exit was 19.63 mm/s. The maximum displacement in the small mandrel was 0.0925 mm. Then, aiming at achieving a uniform flow velocity and enough die strength, three kinds of die structure modifications for the porthole die were proposed.

  • Engine Block Materials and Its Production Processes
    ENGINE BLOCK MATERIALS AND ITS PRODUCTION PROCESSES 2.2 THE CAST IRON MONOLITHIC BLOCK The widespread use of cast iron monolithic block is as a result of its low cost and its formidability. This type of block normally comes as the integral type where the engine cylinder and the upper crankcase are joined together as one. The iron used for this block is the gray cast iron having a pearlite-microstructure. The iron is called gray cast iron because its fracture has a gray appearance. Ferrite in the microstructure of the bore wall should be avoided because too much soft ferrite tends to cause scratching, thus increasing blow-by. The production of cast iron blocks using a steel die is rear because its lifecycle is shortened as a result of the repeated heat cycles caused by the molten iron. Sand casting is the method widely used in the production of cast iron blocks. This involves making the mould for the cast iron block with sand. The preparation of sand and the bonding are a critical and very often rate-controlling step. Permanent patterns are used to make sand molds. Usually, an automated molding machine installs the patterns and prepares many molds in the same shape. Molten metal is poured immediately into the mold, giving this process very high productivity. After solidification, the mold is destroyed and the inner sand is shaken out of the block. The sand is then reusable. The bonding of sand is done using two main methods: (i) the green sand mold and (ii) the dry sand mold.

First, the finite element result was compared with experimental extrusion data acquired to validate the current analysis. Then, the effect of design parameters of the die shape was numerically analyzed using commercial FE software, Forge NxT, for the metal forming process. Elastic FE analyses were also conducted for dies to analyze the maximum principal stress that affects the early fracture of dies during the extrusion process and the maximum von Mises stress that causes the severe deformation of dies. Consequently, the effect of the corner radius at the exit and land length on the extrusion load and die stress is negligible compared to that of the corner radius at Citation: Choi, B.-J.; Moon, I.Y.; Oh, the entrance and die angle.
