This paper focuses on the extrusion process of powder/solid clad rods with the desired hole ratio in the center to reduce the weight. The finite-element model about a lot of deformation body extrusion was successfully demonstrated. Raw steel powder and steel tube were consisted as powder/solid rods. While the obvious plastic deformation proceeding in deformation region, the hole ratio clearly lessened, then a little rose apart from the deformation region. The deformation parameters were determined for the purpose to lesson the weight of the rod to about 15% hole ratio in powder deformation region. The extrusion experiment and the tensile property test proved that the integrative property improved while the weight was reduced. The clad rod can be utilized in the solid suck rods.

Extrusion container is the most important tooling for steel hot extrusion process. Conventional design using large castings and forgings is very difficult to execute due to high cost and risk. Steel wire wound containers have many advantages over conventional designs. However, conventional wire wound containers are developed for use at room temperature which are not applicable to steel hot extrusion process. In this article, the impacts of preheating on the design of steel wire wound containers are discussed in detail. A finite element model was established to examine the preheating temperature distribution, and a 1:10 scaled extrusion container was manufactured to verify the effectiveness of the finite element model. Based on the finite element model–computed temperature field, thermal stress analysis was performed. The thermal impacts on the stress of extrusion container and steel wire were obtained. Results showed that insufficient stability of internal cylinder and greatly enhanced steel wire stress may lead to the failure of extrusion container. To solve the problems, an improved design was put forward by increasing the stability factor of internal cylinder, reducing the prestress factor and lowering the allowable stress of steel wire. Results showed that the improved design can meet the requirements and counteract the thermal impacts.

A clear understanding of the plastic deformations at the spall edges is a primary task for the edge propagation predictions in rolling element bearings. This work proposed an elastic–plastic two-dimensional finite element model for calculating the contact stress and plastic deformation between the rolling element and raceway. This model includes a rolling element and one raceway. The rectangular plane strain solid elements are used to formulate the finite element model. The Coulomb model is used to formulate the friction force between the rolling element and raceway. A bilinear kinematic hardening material model is used in the finite element model, which can formulate the elastic–plastic deformations. The studied spall edge profiles are assumed to be sharp and cylindrical ones. To validate the finite element model, the contact deformations between the rolling element and the raceway from the proposed model and Hertzian contact theory are compared. Effects of spall edge profiles on the edge plastic deformations at the edge are analyzed, as well as the edge plastic deformation zone width. Based on the numerical results, the relationship between the edge plastic deformation and the spall edge profile, and that between the edge plastic deformation zone width and the spall edge profile are established. The results show that the edge plastic deformation is significantly influenced by the spall edge profiles, as well as the edge plastic deformation zone width. This paper provides a clear understanding of the effects of the edge profiles on the plastic deformations and propagation at the spall edge.

Extrusion is the plastic deformation process that allows for the highest degree of complexity profiles to be obtained. This paper presents the simulation of a cold forward extrusion process using the finite element method. The results obtained show the stresses, strains and temperatures during the plastic deformation of the material, as well as the stresses and strains in the punch and die. The analysis of the results obtained for different geometric dimensions of the working tools allowed the optimization of the studied extrusion process. In order to validate the finite element model, experiments were carried out with the data acquisition from the real process, which allowed the appreciation that numerical and experimental data are found in a good agreement.

An integration–rolling–extrusion process is raised for the manufacture of spline shaft in this study. First, the principle and procedures of integration–rolling–extrusion process are described. Next, the finite element model with a simplified sector blank is established to obtain a practical method for the simulation of integration-rolling-extrusion process. Through the simulation results, the plastic forming mechanisms are clearly revealed. During the integration–rolling–extrusion process, the equivalent stress, deformation degree, and material flow behavior mainly distribute on the surface layer of the blank and then gradually decrease along the radial inward direction. In the core region of the blank, there are almost no effective stress distribution, deformation degree, and material flow behavior. Next, the experiments are carried out on a specialized forming equipment to verify the finite element model. The results are measured and compared with finite element results. The finite element results show a good agreement with experiments; thus, the finite element analysis on the integration–rolling–extrusion process is credible. In addition, the measurement results show that the dimensions meet the requirement of heavy truck application. It indicates that the integration–rolling–extrusion process is feasible for the manufacture of spline shaft. However, the surface quality of the formed spline shaft is not satisfying, which needs to be discussed further.

The aim of this paper is to design and fabricate a star die and a cylindrical die to produce a star shape by redrawing the cylindrical shape and comparing it to the conventional method of producing a star cup drawn from the circular blank sheet using experimental (EXP) and finite element simulation (FES). The redrawing and drawing process was done to produce a star cup with the dimension of (41.5 × 34.69mm), and (30 mm). The finite element model is performed via mechanical APDL ANSYS18.0 to modulate the redrawing and drawing operation. The results of finite element analysis were compared with the experimental results and it is found that the maximum punch force (39.12KN) recorded with the production of a star shape drawn from the circular blank sheet when comparing the punch force (32.33 KN) recorded when redrawing the cylindrical shape into a star shape. This is due to the exposure of the cup produced drawn from the blank to the highest tensile stress. The highest value of the effective stress (709MPa) and effective strain (0.751) recorded with the star shape drawn from a circular blank sheet. The maximum value of lamination (8.707%) is recorded at the cup curling (the concave area) with the first method compared to the maximum value of lamination (5.822%) recorded at the cup curling (the concave area) with the second method because of this exposure to the highest concentration of stresses. The best distribution of thickness, strains, and stresses when producing a star shape by

AbstractThe current study presents a novel Tailored Forming process chain developed for the production of hybrid bearing bushings. In a first step, semi-finished products in the form of locally reinforced hollow profiles were produced using a new co-extrusion process. For this purpose, a modular tool concept was developed in which a steel tube made of a case-hardening steel, either C15 (AISI 1015) or 20MnCr5 (AISI 5120), is fed laterally into the tool. Inside the welding chamber, the steel tube is joined with the extruded aluminum alloy EN AW-6082. In the second step, sections from the compound profiles were formed into hybrid bearing bushings by die forging. In order to set the required forming temperatures for each material—aluminum and steel—simultaneously, a tailored heating strategy was developed, which enabled successful die forging of the hybrid workpiece to the desired bearing bushing geometry. Using either of the case-hardening steels in combination with aluminum, this novel process chain made it possible to produce intact hybrid bearing bushings, which showed both macroscopically and microscopically intimate material contact inside the compound zone.
