Embodiment 1

[0054] Embodiment 1 (Ti-6A1-4V powder compaction experiment)

[0055] The experiment is carried out on the high-speed pressing machine built. The experimental device is mainly composed of upper and lower punches, molds, and hammers. The whole high-speed pressing process consists of three steps of powder filling, compaction and discharge. Before powder filling, the die walls were lubricated with zinc stearate dissolved in acetone to facilitate ejection of the compact. The Ti-6Al-4V powder with a mass of 4.0 g was poured into the mold cavity and sandwiched between the upper and lower molds. During compaction, a weight is released at a specific height and then impacts the upper punch to compress the powder. Impact energy density per unit mass E′ in the experiment m defined as:
