The design and development of a hydrostatic extrusion apparatus

摘要

The purpose of this research is to design and construct an experimental hydrostatic extrusion apparatus which has a maximum working pressure of 10 000 kg/cm~2, and to reduce the cost of this extrusion apparatus. The high-pressure extrusion container has been designed with two-layer pyramidal cylinders, and the material used was SKD61 which is cheap and readily available. Different materials and designs for high-pressure seals were tested and analyzed for the best combination performance. Problems in the extrusion processes using this device were analyzed and solved, which increased the reliability of the device. The results of extrusion experiments have established that this device is practicable.
