Wprowadzenie to Extrusion in Structural Steel Production

Extrusion is a bulk deformation process that forces metal through gh a die to create a long product with a consident cross- section.

Overview of Hot andCold Extrusion

Hot Extrusion

An hot extrusion, thee steel billet is heated above its recrystallization temperature demp; # 8212; typically between 900 demp; # 176; C and 1200 demp; # 176; C for structural steels.

Cold Extrusion

Cold extrusion, also referred to comes forming or cold pressing, is carried out at or near ambient temperature. The absence of external heating causes thee steel to undergo contrigent work hardening during deformation.
