3.1 HyperXtrude simulations HyperXtrude is commercial software for simulation which was produced by Altair Inc. It is good at and special for die design and material flow in the extrusion process of metals and polymers. If the simulations are accurate enough for different profile designs and thermo-mechanical behavior of the billet materials‚ it is very important for die designers and production engineers to predict and reduce the cost of die trials. It is of very practical for producing balanced

more brittle than steel and are far more subject to breaking‚ especially if the drill is not held at a constant angle to the work piece. The proper drill bit selection can be categorized by the material composition of the workpiece being manufactured which determines its hardness and workability. High speed steel bits are commonly used to drill typical working metals‚ hardwood‚ and most other materials. HSS is a form of tool steel that runs at greater cutting speeds than carbon steel bits‚ and has largely

Effect of cold rolling on bonding tensile of 7075 alloy The present study reports the effect of cold working on bending and tensile behavior of Brass‚ Copper‚ Aluminium. A series of experiments involving cold rolling (58% cold work) have been conducted for those three materials. The Vickers number of hardness for cold rolled specimens can be show very clearly that it has increasing up the number itself likewise the number of thickness reduction which also increasing. Which its number of Vickers
