Abstract

Increasing production efficiency while using the maximum effort to utilize energy and keeping the quality of products steady at the same time has been a complicated task for industries and manufacturing firms. The manufacturing process like extrusion plays a great role in improving product sustainability due to its near net shape fabrication character. But still, this process did not achieve its ultimate product enhancement capability. During the aluminium extrusion process, multi-hole extrusion dies are implemented to produce several extrusion products at a time, which maximizes the productivity of this process. But still, some improvements have been left to product quality enhancements. In this study, process enhancement has been taken care of to improve the productivity of the multi-hole extrusion process. A simulation of direct hot extrusion of AA6063 aluminium alloy is performed by using DEFORM-3D software at different extrusion process parameters, and the results were analyzed using the finite element method.Please confirm if the corresponding author is correctly identified. Amend if necessary.It is correct. No changes required.
