The components of ES die were manufactured and installed to gleeble1500D thermo-mechanical simulator. Microstructure observations were carried out in different positions of ES formed rods. The results show that homogeneous microstructures with mean grain size of 2 μm are obtained at lower temperature as the accumulated true strain is 2.44. Occurring of continuous dynamic recrystallization （DRX） is the main reason for grain refinement during ES process. The experimental results show that the ES process effectively refines the grains of AZ31 magnesium. The production results of ES extrusion with industrial extruder under different extrusion conditions show that the ES extrusion can be applied in large-scale industry.展开更多
