A matrix for shaping a valve preform has a circular through opening and a reduced conical section. The reduced conical section tapers from an outer diameter to a reduced cone inner diameter, the outer diameter being greater than or equal to the initial outer diameter of the valve preform, and the matrix inner diameter being smaller than the initial outer diameter.

One aspect relates to a production method for a ring electrode, to a ring electrode, and to an electrode system. One method for the ring electrode includes providing an outer element, including an outer tube, providing a first inner element, including a first inner tube having a first core of a sacrificial material, providing a second inner element, including a second core of a sacrificial material, forming a composite tube by arranging the first inner element and the second inner element inside the outer element, the first inner element and the second inner element being arranged off-center with respect to one another, drawing the composite tube in a longitudinal direction of the composite tube, separating a composite tube disk from the composite tube, removing the sacrificial material of the first core, and removing the sacrificial material of the second core in order to obtain a contacting opening in the ring electrode.

An extrusion apparatus and a method for manufacturing an aluminum capillary tube using the same are provided. The extrusion apparatus includes a container, a housing mold provided on one side of the container and including a plurality of dies formed with a plurality of holes, and a ram pressing an aluminum billet accommodated in the container in a direction from another side to the one side of the container so that the aluminum billet accommodated in the container is extruded into a plurality of aluminum capillary tubes having cross-sectional shapes corresponding to the plurality of holes, and the number of the plurality of holes is determined based on an inner diameter of the container and a diameter of each of the plurality of holes.

A friction assisted tube fabrication method is disclosed. The friction assisted tube fabrication includes a set of methods such as a friction assisted tube forming, a friction assisted tube extrusion, and a friction assisted tube straining method. A metal object, for example, a deformable tube is simply deformed into the tube using a mandrel. The metal object with an initial diameter is forced across the slope of the mandrel with an angle. The mandrel is configured to rotate while forcing the metal object to deform into the tube with the desired radius. While rotating the mandrel, a friction is generated due to contact between the tube and the mandrel, thereby generating thermal energy to heat a deformation area of the tube for simply and easily softening and forming into the desired shape with accuracy diameter, and dimensions using a nominal pressing force without additional equipment and power.

A method for preparing a multilayer metal composite pipe includes steps of: internally and externally grinding blank pipes; cleaning oil stains; assembling a multilayer metal pipe; drawing to reduce a diameter; performing high-speed friction welding at the pipe ends; performing heat treatment; performing four-roller cross-rolling; straightening; performing two-roller cold-rolling; performing cold-drawing to reduce the diameter; performing cold-expansion to reduce the diameter; performing precise cold-rolling; degreasing; brightening; performing surface grinding; cleaning dust; detecting multilayer metal interface bonding; detecting flaws; testing metal structure performance; and sizing and packaging. By cycling the cold-drawing, the cold-expansion, and the precision cold-rolling, key indicators such as product dimensional accuracy, surface quality, material properties, and crystal grain size can be collaboratively controlled, so as to achieve higher accuracy, better performance, and more outstanding extreme specifications. The present invention solves the problem of inconsistent extension due to differences in metal properties.

A pipe body, wherein the pipe body (10) has a welded portion (11) at both ends of the pipe body, aligned in a widthwise direction of the pipe body (10). The thickness of the welded portion (11) decreases gradually from the inside to the outside of the pipe, and an outer end of the welded portion (11) is located at a center portion of the pipe body (10) in a thickness direction. The configuration of the welding structure enhances the strength of the welded portion of the pipe, so that the pipe will not crack easily when it is reworked by flaring or bending, thus having high reworkability. In addition, a pipe (100) made of the pipe body (10) and a method of making the pipe (100) are disclosed.
