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. The pressure application device applies pressure to the material to force the material to contact the expanding shear material section to provide an expanded post-shear material section. Pressure from the pressure application device applies pressure to the material to force the expanded post-shear material section to contact the contracting shear material section to provide a contracted shear material section.

A method for producing a composite material by plating a band arrangement with a top side (O) and a bottom side (U), wherein the band arrangement comprises at least a first strip and a second strip, which form between them a filling channel, wherein the band arrangement comprises at least one filler strip, wherein the abovementioned band arrangement is plated, wherein a part of the filler strip, during the plating, is extruded into the filling channel; and a composite material, characterized in that it has been produced according to the method as disclosed.

An efficient method for producing spring strut forks for motor vehicles is presented. In each case two spring strut forks are produced from a metallic extruded profile as a starting product. The extruded profile has a central, middle main chamber and four longitudinal chambers which are arranged offset with respect to one another over the circumference of the main chamber. Wall portions of the main chamber which are situated between the longitudinal chambers are removed, and the extruded profile is severed into two semifinished parts. Each semifinished part has one cylinder portion and two oppositely situated arm portions which project relative to the cylinder portions. The semifinished parts are subsequently mechanically machined, and one spring strut fork is produced from each semifinished part.

A method for preparing a high-strength extruded profile of an Mg—Zn—Sn—Mn alloy is composed of a solid solution treatment at two stages to a billet, a high-temperature pre-aging to the billet, a low-temperature rapid extrusion and a low-temperature aging treatment to a profile. The Mg—Zn—Sn—Mn alloy includes the following elements in mass percent: 5.8-6.2% of Zn, 3.0-3.5% of Sn, 0.25-0.45% of Mn, unavoidable impurities of 0.05% or less, and the balance magnesium. The Mg—Zn—Sn—Mn magnesium alloy profile has a fine grain size of about 10-20 μm and a dispersed second phase, so a high strength and a good elongation can be obtained therein, and a tensile strength of 350 MPa or more, a yield strength of 280 MPa or more, and the elongation of 12% or more. In addition, the profile has a high extrusion production efficiency and a high yield, and a low extrusion cost.

Devices and methods for performing shear-assisted extrusion processes for forming extrusions of a desired composition from a feedstock material are provided. The processes can use a device having a scroll face having an inner diameter portion bounded by an outer diameter portion, and a member extending from the inner diameter portion beyond a surface of the outer diameter portion.

Extrusion feedstocks and extrusion processes are provided for forming extrusions of a desired composition from a feedstock. The processes can include providing a feedstock having at least two different materials and engaging the materials with one another within a feedstock container.

Methods for preparing metal sheets are provided that can include preparing a metal tube via shear assisted processing and extrusion; opening the metal tube to form a sheet having a first thickness; and rolling the sheet to a second thickness that is less than the first thickness.

An extrusion press machine includes: a die configured to extrusion-mold a workpiece; a cylinder configured to apply pressing force to press the workpiece against the die; and a platen configured to receive the pressing force from the die. The platen includes an outside element and an inside element that is disposed coaxially with the outside element, inside the outside element. The inside element includes one or more fluid supply structures each supplying a cooling medium toward an extruded product extruded from the die.

The present disclosure relates to the field of screw pump technologies, and in particular to a rotary mold extrusion molding process of a screw pump rotor. The rotary mold extrusion molding process of a screw pump rotor includes: performing isothermal spheroidizing annealing for a metal embryo material after treating the metal embryo material ultrasonically for 8˜30 s; performing cylindrical turning for the annealed metal embryo material and then performing sand-blasting, and soaking the metal embryo material in saponified oil for 10˜30 min for lubrication treatment, where the saponified oil contains a nano-silicon carbide of 0.5%˜8% which is a nano-silicon carbide mixture with particle sizes of 20˜60 nm and 140˜200 nm with a mixed weight ratio of 1:(2.8˜4); at room temperature, placing the metal embryo material into an extrusion cylinder to perform rotary mold extrusion molding so as to obtain a finished product.

New 6xxx aluminum alloy products and methods and systems of making the same are disclosed. A method may include heating a billet of a 6xxx aluminum alloy to a preheat temperature, holding the billet at the preheat temperature for a time sufficient to dissolve at least some precipitate hardening phases of the billet, extruding the billet into an extruded product wherein, during the extruding, both the billet and the extruded product are maintained at or above the preheat temperature, discharging the extruded product from the extrusion apparatus while maintaining the extruded product within 100° F. of a solvus temperature of the 6xxx aluminum alloy, and moving the extruded product from the heating shroud to a quenching apparatus.

One or more hollow billets are loaded onto an elongate mandrel bar for extrusion. The billets are transported along the mandrel bar to a rotating die. The billets are transported through fluid clamps, which engage the mandrel bar and provide cooling fluid to the mandrel bar tip, and through mandrel grips, which engage the mandrel bar and prevent the mandrel bar from rotating. One or more press-rams advance the billets through a centering insert and into the rotating die. A quench assembly is provided at an extrusion end of the extrusion press to quench the extruded material. A programmable logic controller may be provided to control, at least in part, operations of the extrusion press system.
