Abstract :
In order to intuitively understand the internal structure, working principle and operating course of the magnesium alloy extruder, furthermore optimize the extrusion process, the problem of modeling and analysis to the model is solved in this paper. A method is studied to create three dimensional visualization of virtual environments based on the extrusion principle of magnesium alloy and virtual reality technology. All models are created by using SOLID WORKS or 3DMAX software, the next step is that 3D models are imported directly into EON Studio by "EON Reptor-web studio-3DMAX" plug-ins to create a virtual environment. When the processing of virtual simulation program is completed, an interactive assembly system of magnesium alloy extrusion machine can be achieved. As the system has the features with imagination and real-time, self-view and interactive operation is feasible. This method can effectively solve the related issues of extruders and the extrusion process. It will be utilized to prepare plastic deformation behavior of magnesium alloy extrusion and isothermal extrusion process simulation.
