The use limit times of different aluminum alloy mold designs vary greatly, generally ranging from thousands to hundreds of thousands of times. This has a lot to do with mold material and heat treatment, aluminum alloy material, shape and accuracy requirements, etc. For details, please refer to the design specifications of related products in related industries.

How can we use this kind of shunt mold more reasonably? We can start from the following aspects:

1. Strictly implement the aluminum profile production process regulations

It must be carried out in strict accordance with the corresponding aluminum extrusion process. During the start-up process, the temperature of the middle section of the aluminum rod furnace is set at 530-550℃, and the temperature of the outlet section is set at 480-500℃. The holding time must be sufficient to ensure that the aluminum rod is warm and Thorough (that is, the core and surface are warm enough), to avoid the increase of the elastic deformation of the mold due to the difference in the temperature of the aluminum rod (the temperature of the core is insufficient), thereby aggravating the phenomenon of "partial wall" and "variation in length" Occurrence, even plastic deformation of the extrusion die and scrapped.

2. Ensure "Three Hearts in One"

The center of the extrusion cylinder, the center of the extrusion rod, and the center of the die base must be visually concentric, and no obvious eccentricity is allowed, otherwise it will affect the flow rate of the product, and even affect the molding of the product or make the length of the left and right extruded products more different. Big to squeeze production.

3. Reasonable selection of support pads
The double-hole special supporting pad of appropriate size must be selected to reduce the elastic deformation of the lower mold, so that the extruded product is stable in shape and the size change is small; and the double-hole special supporting pad must be reserved before the mold is released to prevent the mold from being released. Later, it took too long to find the support pad, which caused the mold to cool down too much and the car was stuffy.

4. Strengthen the information feedback in the extrusion process of aluminum profile

A: Information feedback of extrusion die plug die

There are many reasons for mold plugging, and it is generally difficult for people without special training to express it clearly. It is best to check the mold by the corresponding mold repair personnel and find the reason before burning the mold.

B: Feedback of the discharge molding situation

In addition to the material head with a clearly marked extrusion die number, it is also necessary to mark the overall flow direction of the material head that is difficult to see on the material head, such as a, "intersect discharge" (indicating that there are two parts in the actual extrusion process. The inner side of the hole is slow and the outer side is faster); b, "phase separation and discharge" (indicating that the inner side of the two holes is fast and the outer side is slow in the actual extrusion process); c, "left long and right short" means that the left branch is long and the right branch is short. And the amount of the difference between the length and the short should be indicated. Because the distance between the interrupted saw and the discharge port is about 6 meters, the form of "A meter/6 meters" usually means that the component of the difference in length is A meter every 6 meters, so it is perfect and accurate. The expression is conducive to the correct judgment and maintenance of the mold repair personnel.

C: Information feedback of oversize

When the discharge molding is normal but the size is out of tolerance, a sample must be taken to make a complete and correct identification (extrusion die number, discharge direction, dimensional defect, etc.), any of the identification errors may cause It is necessary to pay great attention to repairing the wrong mold.

Only such a complete feedback of usage information is beneficial to the correct judgment and maintenance of the mold repair personnel, can improve the efficiency of mold repair, and reduce the number of mold repairs and unnecessary mold trials.

5. Mold damage inspection

①The materials used to make the parts of the forming mold do not meet the requirements of the working conditions, causing the mold to be deformed, corroded or severely worn after a period of work.

②When installing and disassembling the parts in the forming mold, hit the parts with a hammer, causing the mold parts to be deformed or the smooth surface is damaged, and the working surface has impact scars.

③The split cone angle is too large, and the resistance to the melt flow is large, causing the split cone bracket rib to break.

④The working surface of the die and mandrel is low in hardness, which makes the smooth surface abrasion seriously and causes the surface to be rough.

⑤When adjusting the mold, the wrong degree of work will cause the mold adjustment screw to be broken, the die or the sizing sleeve will be deformed and cannot be used.
