Abstract
This paper deals with friction properties and deformation resistance during hot forming of Mg-Al-Ca-Mn series magnesium alloys. Friction coefficients between dies and magnesium alloys were obtained by ring compression tests that used graphite, PTFE, and an oil lubricant in a hot-forging process. Hot forging was performed under various conditions to clarify the effects of types of lubricants and slide motion of the press machines on friction properties. Two types of slide motion, a constant velocity motion and a pulse motion were selected in the ring-compression test. It was found that graphite with an oil lubricant effectively eliminated die sticking in hot forming of magnesium alloys. The isothermal deformation resistances were derived using friction coefficients obtained by ring-compression tests as well as finite-element simulations. The predicted stress strain curves with temperature were examined with the stress-strain relationship obtained in experiments using a servo press and demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method.
