Experimental and Analytical Assessment of the Power Parameters of the Combined Rolling-Extruding Process Using a Round Billet from Alloy 01417 Obtained Using an Electromagnetic Mold

Abstract

Analytical and experimental studies have been carried out, which made it possible to propose new technological modes of combined rolling-extruding for the production of rods from alloy 01417 for the further drawing of wire for electrical purposes. The force parameters on the rolls and the die are calculated when extruding a rod with a diameter of 5 mm on the laboratory unit CRE-200 and the industrial unit CRE-400. The obtained values of the forces on the rolls and the die do not exceed the permissible values of the power load of the units. Therefore the selected parameters are suitable for conducting experiments on the manufacture of prototypes of rods. To verify the conclusions made, experimental studies were carried out on the CRE-200 unit at a temperature of 320 oC and a drawing coefficient μ = 12.1. The results of experimental studies in comparison with the calculated data showed that the deviation of the calculated data does not exceed 15%.
