Abstract
The equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) is one of the most important methods used for bulk metal forming. In which die angles are the most importent parameter. This paper attempts to determine the effect of different die angles during ECAE process for 6062 aluminum alloy deformation. Numerical simulations are performed for ECAE process on cylindrical billet of 6062 aluminum alloy at a constant frictional coefficient (μ) of 0.08 and punch speed of 15 mm/sec. Die has made with inner corner angles of (φ) =105°, 115°, 125°and 135° by fixing the outer corner angle (ψ) of 6°, punch is designed with a radii (R) of 4.75mm and height of 50mm. From the simulation results, tha data has been obtained in the form of load stroke behavior, and energy consumend during the punch stoke. It is observed that the maximum load and more energy consumption during the process is noted for lower angle.
