Microstructure, Texture, Electrical and Mechanical Properties of AA-6063 Processed by Multi Directional Forging

Abstract: In current research, the effect of the multi-directional forging (MDF) process on the microstructure, texture, mechanical and electrical properties of AA-6063 under different heat treatment conditions at various MDF temperatures was studied. The annealed AA-6063 alloy was processed up to three passes of MDF at ambient temperature. Three passes of this process were also applied to the solution-treated AA-6063 at ambient temperature and 177 °C. Microstructural investigations demonstrated that the MDF process led… Show more

“…As a result, a bimodal grain size distribution was observed in the central cross-section after IMF at 350 • C and ∑e = 6.3. Similar grain bimodality was observed after multi-directional forging of various aluminum alloys [9,[27][28][29][30][31] and after IMF with a lower strain per pass of 0.4 and a cumulative strain of ∑e = 6.1 in the studied Al-Mg-Mn alloy [43].…”

“…The grain structure consists of very fine grains and coarse grains in pure Al subjected to multi-directional forging at room temperature [25,26]. Similar grain bimodalities are observed in many aluminum-based alloys [9,21,[27][28][29][30][31]. The final grain structure and its homogeneity are 2 of 12 significantly affected by the deformation temperature, cumulative strain and alloy composition [2,[7][8][9][10]20].…”

“…No lubrication between sheet and die was used. The applied force was measured in terms of punch displacement, and shear stress was calculated in MPa using the following equation [36,37]:τ=Pπdt ,where P is the punch force in newton, t is the sample thickness, and d is the average diameter of the punch and die in mm. The shear punch test curves were obtained by plotting shear stress vs. normal displacement.…”

“…Followed by extrusion, the produced bar samples were cut and machined to prepare the required samples for the MDF process with the dimensions of 10 × 10 × 15 mm 3 . MDF was performed in a two-side closed forging die with the detail conditions described in previous works [14]. The schematic of MDF process used in current research is represented in Fig.…”

“…It can be performed at various temperatures, strains, and strain-rates according to the dimensions of die and sample [13]. The ability to control the amount of plastic strain in each pass and repeatability of the process are among the principal advantages of this method [14]. Also, by considering a high potential of this method for the production of large samples, it can be utilized on an industrial scale.…”
