Simulation of the process of extruding a bar billet into a cylindrical extrusion die with active friction

Abstract Backward extrusion processes are widespread when producing various axisymmetric hollow products. This process is characterized by high values of specific pressures. The meaningful task to be achieved is to reduce loads during this process implementation. The use of active friction forces to reduce loads seems to be promising. The use of a floating die with a protrusion on a cylindrical surface, which will facilitate the billet material pushing, is proposed. For theoretical justification of the process, the provision is made to use the finite-element method. The procedure was simulated for different geometric relationships of the tool, the floating extrusion die path velocities and the billet position relative to the extrusion die. The provision is made to analyze the influence of deformation parameters and velocity parameters on the change in force of the studied procedure. Based on the research findings, the conclusions on the expediency of the studied method use for its practical implementation have been made.
