A method of drawing an axial tube made of an aluminum (Al) material for a cowl cross bar includes performing NaOH etching on an extruded pipe having a single diameter and made of an Al alloy and performing high frequency heat treatment on the extruded pipe to increase a tube reduction ratio of the extruded pipe. The cowl cross bar is manufactured having a large diameter section and a small diameter section have a difference in diameter, due to a tube reduction ratio, of 40% by a diameter reduction section. Therefore, even when an Al alloy is manufactured as the axial tube having different diameters, the occurrence of cracks is prevented.

A method for integrally forming a non-metal part and a metal part. The method comprises the following steps: A, arranging a non-transparent non-metal part in a mold; B, arranging a metal part on the periphery of the non-metal part in the mold, the metal part being a continuous structure located on the periphery of the non-metal part; C, heating the metal part so that the metal part is formed into semi-solid metal defined in a mold cavity; D, extruding the semi-solid metal through the mold, so that the semi-solid metal is combined with the periphery of the non-metal part in a seamless mode; and E, quickly cooling the semi-solid metal located on the periphery of the non-metal part, so that the semi-solid metal is formed into amorphous metal combined with the periphery of the non-metal part in a seamless mode. The method is simple and practicable, the rate of finished products is high, the metal part obtained through extrusion has high compactness and strength, and the difficulty in follow-up surface treatment of the metal part is reduced.

A system and method provide a material with uniform micro-structure. In an embodiment, an equal channel angular extrusion system includes an interior mandrel. The interior mandrel includes an expanding shear material section and a contracting shear material section. In addition, the system includes a material. The material is disposed about a portion of the interior mandrel. Moreover, the system includes a pressure application device.
