Working Body for Deformation of Thin-Walled Pipe Billets

Abstract

In this paper we consider different types of working bodies and fillers used in the manufacture of hydro-gas systems of aircraft from thin-walled pipe billets, and also explored the advantages and disadvantages of liquid, fusible, solid, elastic, loose and combined fillers in the deformation of pipe segments by means of distribution, crimping, forming and flexible. As a result of the research, a device for distributing pipe billets along a rigid matrix and a working body made of granular polyurethane and ice, the main advantages of which are: good rheological properties (fast flow); high ductility and viscosity; high ability to transfer pressure throughout the metal zone; ability to withstand high compression load; ease of entry into the workpiece and removal from the finished part; low production costs.
