This invention relates to the field of
copper material preparation technology, specifically a control method for a continuous
extrusion apparatus for wide-width hollow
copper profiles. Based on the cross-sectional characteristics of the target wide-width hollow
copper profile, the method collaboratively sets the rotational speed of the dual
extrusion rollers, the feed rate of multiple billets, and the temperatures of the expansion cavity and the forming die. Driven by the dual
extrusion rollers, the copper billets undergo plastic deformation within the expansion cavity and achieve lateral convergence to form a
metal cavity with a predetermined
hydrostatic pressure. By monitoring the weld interface state of the
metal cavity and the profile exit shape, real-time feedback signals are obtained. The flow channel contour of the expansion cavity and the
sizing zone of the forming die are then collaboratively optimized and controlled to obtain a corresponding set of
process control parameters. These parameters are then evaluated and corrected by an offline
expert system until the preset requirements are met. This invention fundamentally ensures the complete metallurgical bonding of the internal welds during the continuous extrusion process of wide-width hollow copper profiles, improving the mechanical properties and density of the wide-width hollow copper profiles.
