The die profile plays an important role in reduction of extrusion load, evolution of uniform micro-structure and overall improvement of surface integrity of reproduct. In the present investigation, a numerical FEM approach has been carried out for extrusion through cosine die profile using DEFORM-3D software for steady state deformation using rigid plastic material. The extrusion load has been predicted. The comparison made with the experimental results. To show the validity and effectiveness of the result, experiments on hot extrusion were performed, and the results of computation are found to be in good agreement with those of the experiments.
