Type of Lubrication
1. Manual
2. Automatic
Lubricants used are:
.Molten glass is the most common lubricant for
steel and nickel based alloys
.Graphite-based lubricants are also be used at
high extrusion temperature.
Extrusion Equipment
Extrusion Presses
Auger
Hydraulic Pump
Pressure Intensifier
Drives
shapes.
Disadvantages:
Deformation is non-uniform due to different
the
container.
Requirements:
Need considerable headroom to
Die materials
Dies are made from highly alloy tools
Die design
production.
Dies must withstand considerable amount of
stresses, thermal shock, and oxidation.
Design Consideration:
Different wall thicknesses in one section should be
avoided.
The more simple shape the more cost effective.
Symmetrical shape is more accurate.
Sharp corners should be avoided.
Size to weight ratio
Tolerances are added to allow some distortions
(industrial standards).
b) Extrusion piping
c) Surface Cracking
