Abstract
With thick-wall cylinders as the researched object, the paper adopts a novel cold-extrusion technology, namely electro-hydraulic cold-extrusion, to apply vibration signals into a traditional cold extrusion technology. With volume effects of vibration processing as the theoretical basis, Deform-3D software was used to conduct numerical simulation of metal materials under a traditional extrusion type and an extrusion mode with vibration respectively. Evolution processes of metal flow lines and metal grid flow under two kinds of extrusion types were analyzed and compared in details. Through experimental research, computational results of numerical simulation were verified. Metal flow lines at corners of molded parts were observed and analyzed in particular. Researched results show that the metal flow velocity increased and the bending level of cross-section flow lines of the metal decreased after applying vibration signals compared with the traditional extrusion type. The research indicated that vibration promoted metal flow, reduced resistance of the metal flow, and obtained more uniform deformation of metal materials during plastic molding. Research achievements obtained in this paper provide important theoretical and practical engineering values for effectively applying vibration in mechanical processing fields.
