Abstract

Abstract The present paper deals with input process parameter optimization in an extrusion process using DEFORM-3D software and Taguchi approach. Selection of process parameters in an extrusion process is a trivial task in order to minimize the power consumption as an objective function by using two different set of materials. The present research focuses on input process parameters including the shape of the work piece; half die angle, coefficient of friction, logarithmic strain, ram velocity and die length. The simulations aredone by DFORM-3D software used for expecting minimum force attained in cold frontward extrusion process. The materials such as DIN16MnCr5 and AISI1010are used as billet material with definite dimensions. The in effect of stress and strain distribution and also maximum principal stress through the billet has been assessed. The results attained from DFORM-3D software associated with experimental results. The results reveal that effective parameters have the significant influence on decreasing the minimum extrusion force.
