Abstract：

During the process of reverse extrusion with double mold holes, the layout of mold hole has an important impact on the deformation and quality of extruded profiles. Therefore, the numerical simulation of reverse extrusion process with double mold holes for aluminum alloy T profile was carried out, and the influence laws of different mold hole layouts on the deformation and its uniformity of extruded profile were analyzed to obtain a reasonable layout plan for double mold holes in flat mold extrusion. Then, aiming at the problem of equivalent strain concentration between the double mold holes in the flat mold extrusion, a method of setting a cleaver divider between the double mold holes in the flat die extrusion was proposed, and the equivalent strain, temperature distribution and velocity distribution of profiles before and after setting the cleaver divider were compared and analyzed. The results show that the mold hole layout has a significant effect on the equivalent strain distribution of extruded profile. Thus, a reasonable mold hole layout can effectively improve the deformation uniformity of profile, and the extrusion mold with cleaver divider can significantly improve the problem of equivalent strain concentration of profile.
