Service life estimation of extrusion dies by numerical simulation of fatigue-crack-growth
Fatigue behavior of cold extrusion dies is investigated analytically. Experimental studies and practical experience have shown that fatigue cracks occur at the inlet radius of die shoulders. The highest stress concentration is found also at the same location. For this reason, effective stress intensity factors at different locations of the die-shoulder inlet of a typical axisymmetric extrusion die have been calculated by using the finite element method. The crack growth has been simulated by applying the Paris/Erdoǧan fatigue law to the computed data. Finally, service life of the extrusion die has been estimated from the crack-growth-rate.
