Forming Process and Die Design of Three-way Pipe
Using the finite element analysis software MSC-Superform,the forming processes of three-way pipe under different multi-direction loading way were simulated.The time-speed charts and extrusion force curves under three multi-direction loading ways(the multi-direction synchronization loading,the multi-direction loading step by step,the multi-direction order loading) were compared,the multi-direction loading step by step was best process plan.Based on this,the die of three-way pipe was designed.
