Abstract:

Inner axial micro grooves of copper heat pipe were manufactured via the high-speed oil-filled spinning with drawing process , and the corresponding mechanism was then investigated. Experimental results show that the manufacturing of micro grooves includes two stages , namely , the extrusion and the forming stages , that the proce-ssing of micro grooves is mainly affected by various factors , such as the geometric parameters and working position of the multi-tooth mandrel , the depth reduction , the drawing speed , the spinning speed and the working tempera-ture, that micro grooves with different shapes , depths and depth/width ratios can be obtained by varγing the extru-sion depth , the feed rate , the mandrel shape and size , and that the high -speed oil-filled spinning is feasible to the manufacturing of micro grooves due to its full material utilization , high efficiency and low cost.

Key words: oil-filled spinning, micro groove, heat pipe, mandrel
