Compared with the round tube of the same cross-section, the titanium rectangular tube has the advantages of a lightweight, high strength, large bending section modulus, metal saving, and easy installation.
 

The current process for producing titanium seamless rectangular tubes includes a die drawing process. Titanium alloy has a close-packed hexagonal structure at room temperature, with few sliding systems involved in deformability, and difficulty to deform.
It is difficult to form by drawing with a large amount of deformation. It usually requires multiple passes of drawing, and the production cycle is relatively long. . At the same time, the titanium alloy has a strong affinity with the mold material, and the deformation and temperature of the drawing process are not properly controlled. It is easy to bond with the mold, scratch the surface of the product, and the yield rate is low. Finally, in order to reduce the sliding friction between the drawing process and the mold, it is usually necessary to apply a lubricating coating. Some lubricants are volatile and will pollute the environment. Therefore, the requirements for lubricants are relatively strict, which increases production costs.
 

Due to the relatively high yield strength of titanium alloys, large deformation resistance, and relatively low elastic modulus, the processing process is relatively difficult, especially for titanium alloy pipes. To reduce the cost of titanium alloy rectangular tubes, it is necessary to change the existing drawing production methods, seek a new production and processing method, improve production efficiency and yield, reduce costs, and further promote in the fields of aircraft, automobiles, ships, etc. use.
