On the Direct Extrusion of Solder Wire from 52In-48Sn Alloy

In this article, technology for producing wire and rod solder from 52In-48Sn alloy has been developed investigated in the conditions of small-scale production. The use direct extrusion rods instead traditional solder, which includes pressing, rolling drawing, can significantly reduce fleet required equipment. Using only a melting furnace hydraulic press, wires be produced various sizes. Shortening production cycle allows you to quickly fulfill small orders competitive sales. This article develops mathematical model extrusion, calculate ratio, speed pressing force. results modeling process Ø2.00 mm Ø8.0 made are presented. temperature tool is simulated software QForm based on finite element method. Experimental manufacturing Ø2.0 microstructure extruded eutectic phases γ β. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) mapping showed that obtained by uniform distribution structural phases. used manufacture other low-melting alloys.
