CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
The die design, a large division of tool engineering, is a complex, fascinating subject. It is one of the most exciting of all the areas the general field of tool engineering. The word ‘die’ is very general one and it may be well to define its meaning as in this project report. It is used in two distinct ways. When employed in general sense, its mean an entire press tool with all component taken together. When used in a more limited manner, it refer to that components which is machined to receive the blank, as differentiated from the component called the ‘punch’ which is its opposite member.
In this project, the new die design of a proper punch and die will be discussed. Starting by designing model of extrusion die and optimize the main parameter are geometry model of punch and the angle of the die has been analyze using finite element analysis (FEA) software. Then few proposed optimization will be developed and be evaluated to find the best solution for the cavity problem.
1.2 Problem Statement
2
software allows the extrusion die to be turned three-dimensionally and for improvements to be made easily. Many specifications that must be considered before design the extrusion die.
Die design for a new product is developed on the basis of previous experience and experimentation. It is effective for analysis of material flow, temperature distribution and load estimation if die design is specified. But 3D simulation becomes time consuming when many simulation trials are required for development of die shape and searching for optimal position of orifice. By using the new software today, we not only can design the die extrusion but also can analysis the product in details. The defects from the design can be detected when doing a simulation on the product. By using FEA simulation software (Deform V10), the more precise and accurate result will be get.
1.3 Objective
The main objectives that have to be in consideration for this project; stated as below:
a) To design an extrusion die by using SolidWork software.
b) To simulate an extrusion die by using the DEFORM 3D FEA software c) To optimize the geometries parameters of extrusion die.
1.4 Scope
l.5 Parts of The Extrusion Process
Understanding how an extrusion press works requires identifying the press parts and explaining their use. An extrusion press is made up of a front platen and back platen held together by four tie rods. The parts of the press that actually make the extrusion are as follows:
Figure 1.1: The Extrusion Process (http://www.aec.org/techinfo/expro.html)
a) Main Cylinder- Chamber and cylinder of an extrusion press into which hydraulic fluid is pumped to generate the desired ram pressure and movement.
b) Hydraulic Pressure- Pressure used to move the ram forward at the required Pounds Per Square Inch.
c) Ram- A steel rod attached to the main cylinder with a dummy block on the end that enters the container and applies pressure to the billet.
d) Dummy Block- A tight fitting steel block attached to the ram stem on a press which seals the billet in the container and prevents metal from leaking backward.
e) Billet- Aluminium log cut to specific lengths which are fed into the press as extrusion materials.

g) Tool Stack (Die Assembly)- solid: die ring, die, backer, bolster, and sub-bolster (Sub-sub-bolsters are not used in Carthage or Newnan). Hollow: die ring, die mandrel, die cap, bolster, sub-bolster
l.5.1 Die Assembly
Extrusion apparatus for extruding aluminium materials wherein the material is introduced into an extrusion chamber and through a plurality of extrusion orifices located in an extrusion plate closing off one end of the extrusion chamber. The extrusion orifices are circumferentially spaced about the center of the die plate.

a) Die Holder- Container of the tool stack. b) Die Lock- Locks the die into the die holder.
