... on the full forward impact extrusion of aluminum alloy EN AW 6082 (T6) with regard to reduction of friction and wear. Design/methodology/approach The investigations included a variation of lubricant and die treatment. Friction, wear and the mean arithmetic height Sa were used as evaluation...

...Amit Sharma; Manish Garg; Satnam Singh Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop hybrid aluminum metal matrix composite by stir casting process, reinforced with graphite and hard boron carbide particles to enhance the wear resistance. An attempt is made to optimize the wear (weight loss...

...Adalet Zeren Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to understand the effect of graphite content on the properties of aluminum alloy/silicon carbide/granite (Al/SiC/Gr) composites. Design/methodology/approach – Hardness and wear tests were applied to the powder metallurgical composites...

...Carlos Alberto Schuch Bork; Janaina Fracaro Souza Gonçalves; Jefferson Oliveira Gomes Purpose – This article aims to collect data on the aluminum alloy 7050-T7451 machinability used in the manufacturing of aeronautical structures, using the combination of the jatropha vegetable-base soluble...

... pure aluminium (Al99.7) were used as the test materials. The upsetting process was applied to the cylindrical specimens using flat end dies. Three types of lubricants, namely, grease, graphite and SAE 40 oil, were used in this study. Experiments were performed using a hydraulic press, which has 5 mm/s...

...Joseph S. Ajiboye; Saheed A. Adebayo; Temitayo M. Azeez Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the degree of improvement in mechanical properties of aluminum alloy (AA6063) after processing with equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) using four environmentally benign lubricants...

... of the study show that MQL can be successfully applied for precision reaming of aluminum and can provide guidance in developing an MQL system. Originality/value – Few studies have been performed for reaming holes in general, and very few studies have been performed for reaming with MQL. Reaming...
