Abstract

In this paper, the radial extrusion process with mandrel is considered. The numerical simulation results by the rigid-plastic finite element method (FEM) to investigate the forming characteristics in two different schemes of radial extrusion process with mandrel as single-ended and double-ended have been determined. Based on the finite element simulations using two-dimensional QForm software, deformation patterns (gridlines distortion), distributions of effective strain and stress, the variations of relative punch pressure with punch stroke and also to predict and avoid folding defect with different forming parameters in single-ended and double-ended processes have been investigated.
