Abstract

Aiming at the large weight of automobile steel solid shaft, this paper innovates aluminum alloy hollow shaft. The rolling process of automobile hollow shaft was simulated by using the short process flexible precision forming process and the Finite Element Method (FEM). The variation of the shape and inner hole of the rolled piece, the roundness of the outer surface and the wall thickness during the rolling process were analyzed. The numerical results verify the feasibility of rolling aluminum alloy automobile hollow shaft by this process, and provide a theoretical basis for forming aluminum alloy automobile hollow shaft in China.
