A special-purpose die for shaping an aluminum-magnesium alloy by rotating extrusion is provided, including a male die and a female die, wherein a trapezoidally-sectioned groove is formed at an end portion of a working area of the male die, an inner portion of the male die is hollow, with the hollow inner portion having sections of equal area, a circumferential wall of a die cavity of the female die is provided with at least two symmetrical axial grooves, and a cavity is formed inside a clamping part of the female die. The present disclosure remarkably reduces the axial extrusion force such that the deformation of the formed workpiece is more uniform, which greatly improves the mechanical property of the formed workpiece.

Special-purpose die for shaping aluminum-magnesium alloy by rotating extrusion

Provided is a method of forming a cup-shaped aluminum-magnesium-alloy article by rotary extrusion, including the following steps. (1) Blanking. (2) Performing rotary extrusion: placing a cylindrical billet into a concave die cavity, wherein a peripheral wall of the cavity of the concave die is provided with at least two symmetrical axial grooves; inserting a convex die into the concave die cavity, wherein an end of a working region of the convex die is provided with a groove of a trapezoidal cross section; subjecting the convex die to forward extrusion and heating, and simultaneously rotating and heating the concave die, wherein an integral torque is formed during the extrusion process of the convex die by using the cylindrical billet inside the groove having a trapezoidal cross section, and wherein a synchronized rotation with the concave die is achieved by using a metallic billet that flows into the axial groove. (3) Demolding.

Method of forming a cup shaped aluminum magnesium alloy article by rotary extrusion

The present invention discloses a rotary extrusion producing mold for producing an inner ring rib with a large aspect ratio formed of a hollow billet, which consists of a concave die, a left half convex die, a right half convex die, a mandrel, a lower core support and an elastic supporting mechanism, the left and right half convex dies are fixed onto an upper template connected with a slider and a horizontal hydraulic cylinder, a left drive hydraulic cylinder and a right drive hydraulic cylinder are mounted at both ends of the upper template, respectively, the lower core support passes through a middle of the concave die, the elastic supporting mechanism is mounted at a bottom of the lower core support, a drive gear is mounted on a side face of the concave die, and the mandrel is disposed between the left and right half convex dies.
