Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to aluminium extrusion die technical field, especially in processing thick thin difference solid material's aluminium hot extrusion die. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the aluminium processing industry, aluminium hot extrusion as an important forming process is widely used in the production of various aluminium alloy profiles due to its high efficiency and economy. However, in the actual production process, especially when processing 3 series aluminium manganese alloy materials with large thickness difference, there are a series of technical problems and challenges that need to be solved.
[0003] Large thickness difference profiles face significant challenges in the uniformity of aluminium supply. The flow of aluminium liquid in the die is subject to the thickness variation of the material. The thick point area may "steal material" due to smaller flow resistance, resulting in insufficient supply of aluminium liquid in the thin point area. This uneven supply not only affects the quality of the final product, but also causes material waste. Secondly, the design of the die and the configuration of the working belt also have an important impact on the flow of aluminium liquid. Too long working belt will cause the aluminium liquid to stagnate during the flow process, increasing the friction and resistance in the extrusion process, which may cause the temperature of the aluminium liquid to drop rapidly, affecting the flowability and forming effect of the aluminium liquid. In the case of large thickness difference and uneven material flow, some areas of the die will be subjected to greater wear pressure, resulting in shortened die life, increased production cost and frequency of downtime maintenance. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a die structure with uniform aluminium supply, reasonable die design and proper working belt configuration.
