In the internal thread extrusion forming, if the process parameters are not selected properly, the extrusion torque will increase, the extrusion temperature will be too high, or even the tap will break. In order to obtain effective process parameters under certain working conditions, this paper uses a combination of numerical simulation and process experiment to analyze the influence of the bottom hole diameter, extrusion speed, and friction factor on the extrusion torque and extrusion temperature. Through an orthogonal experiment, the significant influence law of different process parameters on the extrusion torque and extrusion temperature was studied, and the order of their influence was determined. Based on the optimal process parameters, numerical simulations and process tests were carried out, and the extrusion effect and related parameters were compared and analyzed. The results show that the extruded thread has clear contour, uniform tooth pitch, complete tooth shape, and good flatness. Compared with before optimization, the maximum extrusion torque has been reduced by 37.15%, the maximum temperature has been reduced by 29.72%, and the extrusion quality has been improved. It shows that the optimized method and optimized process parameters have good engineering practicability.

The diameter of the threaded bottom hole determines whether the extrusion can proceed smoothly and the fullness of the tooth shape after extrusion. The tooth height rate is an important indicator of the strength of the threaded connection. In order to establish the relationship between the diameter of the bottom hole and the tooth height of the extruded internal thread, this paper takes the aluminum alloy M8×1.25 mm internal thread as an example, and uses a method of combining numerical simulation and process test. Obtained the changing law of internal thread profile and tooth height rate of extruded workpieces with different bottom hole diameters. Using MATLAB to fit the numerical simulation results, the relationship between the tooth height of the internal thread and the diameter of the prefabricated bottom hole of the workpiece was obtained. The reliability of the numerical simulation results and the feasibility of the fitting formula are verified through experiments. The results show that the diameter of the prefabricated bottom hole of the workpiece is controlled within 7.33~7.39 mm when the M8×1.25 mm internal thread is processed by the cold extrusion process. The high rate of the internal thread after extrusion meets the requirements of thread connection strength, and the internal thread has high forming quality and good surface quality.


Metal matrix composite is considered in various engineering fields like Automobile, medical, electronics aerospace, marine, recreational sectors, of which Aluminum metal matrix composite is considered mostly because of its high strength to weight ratio, easy of fabrication, corrosion resistance, good aesthetic appearance and high resistance to wear etc. This paper concentrates on the effect of secondary processing (Cold Extrusion) on mechanical and wear properties of Al6063 reinforced with SiC, Al2O3 and CeO2 particles. Here composite systems prepared by varying reinforcement from 0% to 8% in steps of 2%. Stir casting route adopted for casting composite systems after casting the composite is made to pass through extrusion process with an extrusion ratio of 1.93 with a total strain of 1.45. All composite systems tested for mechanical properties as per ASTM and ISO standard. Wear test was conducted on pin on disc setup for different loads, reinforcement, sliding distance and sliding speed. Results reveals that due increase in reinforcement the mechanical properties have improved further improvement observed when subjected to extrusion process, similar observation was made for wear studies which conclude the wear rate is improved for extruded composite as compared to cast composite systems observed by various researchers.
