Abstract

With the development of the lightweight trend, the wheel rim of automobile is always made of aluminum alloy, which put forward higher requirements to the capability of the rim. Because of its big size, complex figure, and material with hard deformation, the wheel rim always take on cracks during the traditional forging. This paper study on the Isothermal-Forging, the blank and the mould can always keep at the same temperature during forging, and also with a constant strain rate, with which it can avoid the temperature decrease and the effect of cold mould during forging. On the other hand, with prefabricated pipe, the perforation extrusion is used to obtain the required deformation through multiple backward extrusion. This process greatly reduced the forming force, and also overcome the defect of crack at the inner rim.
