the aluminum extrusion process starts with a diet being loaded into the press
0:07
the diet has openings that will create the profile when the aluminum is pushed
0:11
through
0:13
dies our preheated to prevent the aluminum from sticking in these openings
0:18
next the wrought alloy is brought to the press in the form of a bill
0:22
the bill it as a solid solent oracle length of a lawyer there can be up to
0:26
seventy two inches long
0:28
abilities and placed into a heating furnace and he did to nine hundred
0:32
degrees fahrenheit
0:33
this temperature allows the bill it to become soft yet still maintain its shape
0:38
in a solid form
0:40
note that the aluminum has not changed color
0:43
even as a basis for heating furnace at nine hundred degrees
0:48
finish cuts off is used to cut the profile to the specified commercial life
1:47
extrusions are then placed on rafts as they are prepared for the aging process
1:52
extrusion alloys reach their optimal strength through the process of aging
1:57
sometimes known as age hardening
1:59
natural dating occurs at room temperature
2:02
artificial aging takes place through controlled heating in an aging often
2:07
the aging of and further strengthens or hardens the profile through controlled
2:11
thermal treatments that affect the metallurgical structure of the alloys
2:16
yielding maximum strength
2:17
hardness an elasticity for the profile
2:21
once the extrusion process is complete the die is removed from the press and
2:26
cleaned of any residual aluminum
2:29
after cleaning the die is inspected and prepared for the next time it will be
2:33
used to extruded this profile
ROLLING
here the material is rolled from its original thickness of twenty two
2:47
centimeters
2:48
down to about
2:49
three centimeters
2:51
is is a very significant reduction
2:55
at this rough email
2:57
four high vol the notice
3:00
to back up
3:01
and to smaller working
3:04
the back of roles are often cast steel group
3:09
the working roles must have very smooth surfaces and tolerate high temperatures
3:14
and where as they are in direct contact with the material
3:23
this particular material is rolled with five passes
3:26
where one past means that the material passes through the roles ones
3:33
the material is surface planned several times during the roughing mill process
3:39
any new traces of mail scam
3:44
in order to control the width of the material
3:47
vertical roles are used
3:53
the material is now called
3:55
transfer bars
3:57
after the roughing mail
3:59
the transfer bar is rolled up in the coral barks
4:03
the coil boxes primary purpose is to save space
4:07
button when inside the club box a temperature equalization also occurs
4:12
the temperature difference between the ends of the material is minimized as the
4:17
transfer bar is coil together
4:19
when the transfer bar is removed from the coral barks it has a temperature at
4:23
of about one thousand fifty degrees centigrade
4:28
the ends of the transfer bar are cut off and the bar undergoes further males
4:32
killed it
4:34
after this it's time for the next stage
4:39
this mill consists of six n
4:41
in the shape of
4:42
four high voting
4:45
here the transfer bars now called strips
4:48
pot of gold into a thickness of between sixteen
4:51
and one point eight milliliters
4:59
we see enough of
5:01
which measures and controls amongst other things the line speed
5:08
the swinging motion that can be observed is when opt
5:12
is adjusting itself
5:16
in order to control the profile and the flatness of the strips
5:20
0:50
to form discrete parts to near net shape from these rock mill forms
0:55
for their refining microstructure and directional grain flow
1:00
because of these effects on microstructure and grain flow
1:04
the mechanical performance of rock mill forms and parts
1:08
is typically superior to that of cast medals
1:14
opened i for j
1:15
is performed on ended
1:18
or a pre form
1:20
and is the defamation of a workpiece
1:23
between flap or shaped dies
1:25
without completely restricting mental flow
1:29
this defamation can result in lengthening of the workpiece while
1:33
reducing its cross-section
1:36
upsetting regions along the length to greater sizes than adjacent regions
1:43
bulging the work pieces cross-section
1:45
while reducing its length
1:48
lengthening and upsetting are typically done using multiple impacts as the work
1:54
pieces incrementally advanced lengthwise
1:57
and rotated about its longitudinal access
2:01
there is a centrally no limit to the size of forgings that can be made
2:05
using opened i for j
2:08
they can range from a few centimeters two thirty meters in length
2:13
and wave from a few
2:14
to up to several hundred thousand kilograms
2:19
although fairly complex shapes can be made using opened i four jg
2:24
most a rather simple solid sore hollows requiring considerable machining
2:29
to achieve final shape
2:32
forgings are produced using simple flat
2:36
v shaped
2:38
or semi round dies
2:41
various six esri tools are also used including saddles
2:46
blocks
2:49
rings
2:50
manju rolls
2:52
and punches
2:54
to withstand forging temperatures abrasion and impact
2:59
dies and accessory tools are usually made of hard work
3:03
tools deals or medium carbon alloy steels
3:09
impression dot forging
3:11
also called closed i forging
3:13
is the defamation of metal that forging temperature
3:17
within one or more die impressions or cavities
3:21
it is performed both impresses and hammers
3:26
work pieces maybe round
3:28
or rectangular
3:29
and cross-section
3:31
or flat desks
3:32
and that dies are sometimes enter relief heated to minimize chilling and cooling
3:38
of the workpiece
3:40
for simple shapes impression die fourteen can be performed in a single
3:45
press stroke
3:46
more often however
3:48
several strokes of different force are used with dies
3:52
having several impressionist four sequential pre forming and finish
3:56
forging operations
3:59
preforming operations may include
4:02
to increase the workpiece cross-section
4:06
blocking to refine the shape four finish forging
4:11
and finish forging to complete the shape
4:15
in finnish forging
4:17
the bulk of the metal is forced into the impression
4:20
wala thin-layer
4:21
called flash
4:23
flows out between the dies at the parting plane surrounding the forging
4:29
flash comprises a flat region called the land
4:32
and sometimes a bowl this region at the end of the land created by a gutter in
4:38
the upper die
4:40
the thin flash cools rapidly increasing pressure within the impression
4:45
which assists metal flow in the impression details
4:49
once finish forging is complete
4:52
the flashes removed either manually for with training dies
