Abstract

In any metal forming process, both the strain rate and deformation rate depend on the die profile. The die profile also, is responsible for the non-uniformity of the deformation along the cross-section. These affect the quality and mechanical properties of the product. Therefore, if a die is designed, in which the affecting variables can be controlled spontaneously it is hoped to obtain a product with a desired quality. In this paper, the effect of the die profile on the mechanical and metallurgical properties of the product is investigated.
