Because of the special design of the extrusion die, the direction of the frictional force has been altered and the distribution of the strain field has been uniformed. The results of the finite element analysis(FEA) indicate that the homogeneity of the finial deformation has been greatly enhanced with this method provided. The ratio of maximum strain to minimum strain along the width is reduced from 6.39 to 1.03. Along the billet length, the strain homogeneity region increases more obviously and the strain is uniformed more greatly than that of common extrusion.
