Application of computer-aided engineering optimum design method in aluminum profile extrusion mould

摘要

The finite element analysis and the optimum design of aluminum profile extrusion mould were investigated using the ANSYS software and its parameterized modeling method. The optimum dimensions of the mould were obtained. It is found that the stress distribution is very uneven, and the stress convergence is rather severe in the bridge of the aluminum profile extrusion mould. The optimum height of the mould is 70. 527 mm, and the optimum radius of dividing holes are 70. 182 mm and 80. 663 mm. Increasing the height of the mould in the range of 61. 282 mm to 70. 422 mm can prolong its longevity, but when the height is over 70. 422 mm, its longevity reduces.
