2. EXTRUSION
Introduction
Extrusion is a bulk forming process in which the material is made to
flow using high pressure. The deformation takes places mainly at room
temperature -cold extrusion - as by this means plate-finished
workpieces with close dimensional accuracy are obtained. The billets
are only heated to forging temperature - hot extrusion .

4. Advantages
• Low Tooling Costs
• Design and Change Flexibility
• Good Quality
• Minimal wasted material
Disadvantages
• Limited complexity of parts
• Uniform cross-sectional shape only

5. Fig. (3) indirect Extrusion
Indirect Extrusion
he hollow ram containing the die is
kept stationary and the container
with the billet is caused to move.
Friction at the die only (no relative
movement at the container wall)
requires roughly constant
pressure.
Direct Extrusion
The metal billet is placed in a
container and driven through the die
by the ram. Friction is at the die and
container wall requires higher
pressure than indirect extrusion.

7. IMPACT EXTRUSION
• A manufacturing process in which a small shot of solid material is
placed in the die and is impacted by a ram, which causes cold flow
in the material.
• It may be either direct or indirect extrusion and it is usually
performed on a high- speed mechanical press.

8. HYDROSTATIC EXTRUSION
Hydrostatic extrusion is actually a form of direct extrusion. The liquid
applies pressure to all surfaces of the work billet. When the ram moves
forward, it is the force from the incompressible fluid that pushes the
work through the die, extruding the metal part.
