Providing plastic zone extrusion
View Patent ↗Plastic zone extrusion may be provided. First, a compressor may generate frictional heat in stock to place the stock in a plastic zone of the stock. Then, a conveyer may receive the stock in its plastic zone from the compressor and transport the stock in its plastic zone from the compressor. Next, a die may receive the stock in its plastic zone from the conveyer and extrude the stock to form a wire.
1. A system comprising:
a compressor configured to receive a stock;
a conveyer configured to receive the stock from the compressor and transport the stock from the compressor wherein the conveyer comprises;
a base; and
a screw configured to rotate in the base to transport the stock from the compressor to a die, wherein the screw comprises,
a first thread,
a second thread, and
a third thread, the first thread being closer to the compressor than the second thread and the third thread, the third thread being closer to the die than the first thread and the second thread, the second thread being between the first thread and the third thread, a space between the first thread and the second thread being greater than a space between the second thread and the third thread; and
the die configured to;
receive the stock from the conveyer, and
extrude the stock to form a wire.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the compressor comprises a chamber and a plunger.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the plunger is configured to rotate in the chamber.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the conveyer being configured to transport the stock from the compressor comprises the conveyer being configured to mix the stock.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stock comprises at least two of the following: a first alloy, a second alloy, first nano-particles, and second nano-particles.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the compressor is configured to generate frictional heat in the stock to place the stock in a plastic zone of the stock.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the conveyer is configured to generate frictional heat in the stock to place the stock in a plastic zone of the stock.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the die is configured to generate frictional heat in the stock to place the stock in a plastic zone of the stock.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the stock comprises at least a first alloy and a second alloy; and
the wire comprises a first microstructure and second microstructure having a high adhesion between the first microstructure and second microstructure.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the stock comprises a metal and nanoparticles; and
the wire comprises microstructures of the metal and of the nanoparticles distributed substantially homogeneously within the wire.
