Aluminum AA6063 material was the billet material, temperature of the billet was 450 degrees C and ram speed was selected as 5 mm/sec. The die design was obtained according to the shape of the bridges of the porthole die. Finally, the design optimization was achieved by analyzing FEM results. It was obtained that the dies which have curved bridges offer optimum process conditions.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessPorthole Die ExtrusionFEMAluminum 6063Stress DistributionDie DeflectionAluminumSeamsAn Optimization Study for Bridge Design of a Porthole Extrusion DieArticle134270275N/AWOS:0005148020000012-s2.0-85122098113Q4
