Description

In-situ preparation and forming method and device for aluminum/magnesium alloy semi-solid slurry
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of metal semi-solid processing, and particularly relates to a method and equipment for in-situ heating preparation and extrusion casting molding of aluminum/magnesium alloy semi-solid slurry.
Background
The metal semi-solid processing technology is a novel processing and forming method between the traditional solid processing technology (such as extrusion, forging and rolling) and liquid forming (such as casting). Because the semi-solid metal contains liquid metal and solid metal at the same time, compared with solid processing, the semi-solid processing has smaller molding resistance and can mold more complex shapes; compared with liquid forming, the oxidation resistance of the alloy is obviously improved when the alloy is processed at a lower temperature in a semi-solid state, the content of shrinkage defects is obviously reduced, and gas is not easy to be involved when the semi-solid metal is molded with a larger viscosity; the total amount of latent heat of crystallization released when the semi-solid metal is solidified is low, and the service life of the die is obviously prolonged. Therefore, semi-solid metal processing has the characteristics of less casting defects, low porosity, long service life of a die, easiness in processing and forming and the like, and is advocated by researchers once being provided. However, metal semi-solid processing is still rarely applied in practical production, mainly due to the small process window and the high control difficulty of semi-solid processing. Researches show that when the liquid fraction of the semi-solid slurry (semi-solid state) is 40-60%, the semi-solid slurry has the best formability, the temperature window corresponding to the liquid fraction of 40-60% is usually smaller, the semi-solid slurry preparation and processing forming processes need to be accurately controlled, and small process fluctuation can cause the obvious change of the liquid fraction of the semi-solid slurry, so that the forming defect is generated. For example, in the semi-solid die casting of aluminum alloy, once the semi-solid slurry has a large heat loss in the die casting process, casting defects such as cold shut and insufficient casting can be generated.
The metal semi-solid forming comprises two modes of rheoforming and thixoforming. Rheoforming refers to cooling a metal melt to a semi-solid temperature range, preparing semi-solid slurry by modification, violent stirring, vibration and other modes, and then directly using the semi-solid slurry for forming. The thixoforming is that the semi-solid slurry is firstly solidified into ingot blank to obtain semi-solid blank (solid), then the semi-solid blank is cut into sections according to requirements and then heated for the second time to obtain the semi-solid slurry, and then the semi-solid slurry is conveyed to a forming device to be processed and formed. The two methods are applied to industrial production and have respective characteristics. Rheological pulping and forming are completed synchronously, so that the cost is low; the thixoforming separates the pulping process from the semi-solid forming process, has higher cost, but is easier for microstructure regulation and control and production environment control.
The thixoforming is a semi-solid processing technology which is firstly applied industrially, and the whole processing process comprises three procedures of (1) semi-solid blank preparation, (2) secondary heating and (3) processing and forming, wherein the semi-solid blank preparation (procedure 1) is usually carried out independently, the semi-solid blank is cut into ingots with specific sizes according to subsequent requirements after the semi-solid blank preparation is finished, then the ingots (semi-solid blanks) are heated to a specific temperature, semi-solid slurry is obtained after the semi-solid blank is kept warm for a period of time (procedure 2), and finally the semi-solid slurry is conveyed into forming equipment to be processed and formed (procedure 3), namely, the secondary heating in the procedure 2 and the processing and forming in the procedure 3 are finished sequentially, the heat loss of the semi-solid slurry in the procedures of the procedure 2 and the procedure 3 determines the quality of.
Because the semi-solid slurry is easy to deform and cannot be directly clamped by a tool, the semi-solid slurry is usually required to be contained by a container, and before forming, the semi-solid slurry is taken out of the container and placed into a die, and then is processed and formed. The semi-solid slurry has heat loss in the transfer process, for example, the heat loss is caused by thermal radiation and air convection in the transfer process of the container, the heat loss is caused when the semi-solid slurry is poured out or ejected from the container, the semi-solid slurry enters the die to contact with the die and loses heat through heat conduction, and the longer the waiting time between the semi-solid slurry entering the die and the forming is, the larger the heat loss is; once the heat loss of the semi-solid slurry exceeds a certain limit, the formability thereof is affected, thereby causing casting defects such as cold shut and insufficient casting. Again, these heat losses cannot be compensated for by increasing the superheat: increasing the overheating can cause the liquid fraction in the semi-solid slurry to exceed 60%, and further, the defects of 'foot-like' in the heating process, solid-liquid phase separation in subsequent processing and forming and the like can be generated. Therefore, in the semi-solid thixoforming process, how to control the heat loss of the semi-solid slurry in the transfer process within an acceptable range after the slurry preparation is completed is the key of the success or failure of thixoforming.
There are many patents on the preparation of semi-solid slurries, but there are few patents on how to effectively reduce the heat loss of semi-solid slurries during transfer. For example, the semi-solid metal blank full-automatic continuous secondary heating device (CN201310521522.1) invented by Beijing color research institute well solves the technical problem of how to continuously and stably supply semi-solid slurry in the thixoforming process, but the patent does not relate to the problem of transfer of the semi-solid blank from a pulping device to a forming device. The invention discloses a device for continuous heating, hot-pressing and casting forming of aluminum alloy semi-solid blank (CN201821950985.4) invented by Jinyahao precision metal technology (Dongguan) Limited company, which realizes heating and transfer of the aluminum alloy semi-solid blank through a linear feeder, a tunnel heating furnace and a chute, but does not mention the problem of how to effectively reduce the heat loss of the aluminum alloy semi-solid slurry after the aluminum alloy semi-solid slurry comes out of the heating furnace in the waiting process of the chute and after the aluminum alloy semi-solid slurry enters a pressure chamber and before forming, and the heat loss obviously influences the forming performance of the aluminum alloy semi-solid slurry in the two. Therefore, there is currently no particularly effective solution for reducing the heat loss during the post-pulping transfer of semi-solid slurries.
The electromagnetic induction heating has the advantages of high heating rate, energy conservation, environmental protection, capability of realizing gradient heating and the like, and is widely used for industrial production, such as ingot heating before extrusion of aluminum alloy sections. However, due to the "skin effect" of electromagnetic induction heating, the temperature of the surface of the ingot is significantly higher than that of the core when heating, i.e., there is severe non-uniformity in temperature when heating the ingot by electromagnetic induction. The heating nonuniformity obviously reduces the electromagnetic induction heating rate, namely, a longer ingot heating temperature is needed to obtain a uniform temperature, for example, the preparation method disclosed by the semi-solid metal blank full-automatic continuous secondary heating device (CN201310521522.1) needs 10 minutes to obtain ideal semi-solid slurry. In order to increase the electromagnetic induction heating rate and shorten the electromagnetic induction heating time, a more efficient heating method is required.

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
(1) the technical scheme of the invention has small heat loss in the semi-solid slurry transfer process. In the invention, because the transfer time of the semi-solid slurry is short and the temperature difference between the semi-solid slurry and the die contacted with the semi-solid slurry is small, the heat loss in the transfer process of the semi-solid slurry can be effectively reduced. Calculating by using the descending speed of the supporting plate to be 0.2m/s, wherein the whole time interval is less than 2 seconds from the preparation completion of the semi-solid slurry to the start of the semi-solid extrusion casting; in the process of preparing the semi-solid slurry, besides the semi-solid blank, the punch of the upper cylinder, the supporting plate and the bottom of the upper die are simultaneously heated by the electromagnetic field, so that the bottom of the supporting plate and the bottom of the upper die which are contacted with the semi-solid slurry have higher temperature in the process of transferring the semi-solid slurry, the heat loss of the semi-solid slurry in the transferring process (the process of descending the supporting plate) is very small, and the industrial technical problem of large heat loss in the transferring process after the semi-solid slurry is pulped is effectively solved.
(2) The semi-solid slurry prepared by the technical scheme of the invention has better forming capability and process stability than the traditional method. Compared with the conventional semi-solid forming process, the semi-solid slurry extrusion casting method has the advantages that the heat loss of the semi-solid slurry caused by heat transfer of the punch and the pressure chamber is obviously reduced when the semi-solid slurry is extruded and cast, the temperature reduction before the semi-solid slurry is extruded and cast is very small, the capability of filling the semi-solid slurry into the die cavity and the feeding capability after filling are effectively improved, and the repeatability of the whole forming method is high.
(3) According to the technical scheme, the semi-solid slurry is prepared in situ by adopting a segmented variable power heating method with double-point temperature control on the outer surface and the center, and the required time is further shortened on the basis of the prior art. The method disclosed by the semi-solid metal blank full-automatic continuous secondary heating device (CN201310521522.1) requires 10 minutes of heating time to obtain semi-solid slurry; by adopting the technical scheme of the invention, the semi-solid slurry with the liquid fraction of 55 percent can be obtained by casting the A365.2 ingot with the diameter of 200 mm-height of 150mm for 6 minutes, and the semi-solid slurry preparation time is shortened by more than 40 percent.
(4) The technical scheme of the invention can effectively reduce the manufacturing cost of the extrusion casting equipment. Because the heat loss of the semi-solid slurry in the transfer process is effectively controlled, the semi-solid slurry has higher liquid fraction and uniform temperature during extrusion casting, has smaller flow resistance during molding, and can finish extrusion casting by adopting smaller pressure, therefore, the extrusion casting equipment can select a molding upper oil cylinder and a casting machine frame with smaller tonnage, and the manufacturing cost of the extrusion casting machine is obviously reduced.
(5) The technical scheme of the invention is convenient to realize mechanization, reduce process errors caused by manual operation, remarkably reduce manual labor consumption in the casting manufacturing process and is more beneficial to realizing safe production.

Comparative example 1
This comparative example was substantially the same as example 1 except that the number of temperature controls was reduced and the temperature was controlled to retain only 50% of the fraction of liquid phase corresponding to the temperature T50And a liquidus fraction of 55% corresponding to the temperature T55The specific heating method is as follows:
(1) when the temperature T of the outer surface of the semi-solid blank0≤576℃(T50) The method comprises the following steps: when 0 is present<T1Heating the semi-solid blank at 576 deg.C or below with full power; when the temperature is 576 DEG C<T1≤582℃(T55) Heating with 10% power; when T is1>Stopping heating at 582 ℃;

When the method of reducing the number of temperature control is adopted, the first temperature control point is set to be too high, such as 576 ℃ (liquid fraction of 50%) in the embodiment, because the thermocouple temperature measurement has time lag, and electromagnetic induction heating is a very efficient heating method, when the temperature detected by the thermocouple is 576 ℃, the actual temperature of the surface of the ingot reaches 586-591 ℃, and at the moment, the surface of the ingot enters a high liquid fraction stage (liquid fraction of 60-63%) which can flow under gravity: the phenomenon of solid-liquid separation during extrusion can be caused by excessively high liquid fraction, macrosegregation is formed, and macrosegregation can cause the sharp reduction of the performance of the hub, so that the product is scrapped.
Comparative example 2
This comparative example was substantially the same as example 1 except that the number of temperature controls was reduced and the temperature was controlled to retain only 40% of the liquidus fraction corresponding to the temperature T40And a liquidus fraction of 55% corresponding to the temperature T55The specific heating method is as follows:
(1) when the temperature T of the outer surface of the semi-solid blank0≤573℃(T40) The method comprises the following steps: when 0 is present<T1Heating the semi-solid blank at 573 deg.C or below with full power; when the temperature is 573 DEG C<T1≤582℃(T55) Heating with 10% power; when T is1>Stopping heating at 582 ℃;
(2) when the temperature T of the outer surface of the semi-solid blank0The temperature is 573-582 ℃ (573℃)<T0At 582 ℃) of: when 0 is present<T1Heating at a temperature of no more than 582 deg.C with 5% power; when T is1>Stopping heating at 582 ℃;

When the number of control temperatures is reduced, the first temperature control point is set at 35% to 45% of the liquidus ratio, and the second temperature control point is set at the target value (the liquidus ratio in this example is 55%), although the risk of entering the high liquidus ratio (> 60%) is significantly reduced, the time required to reach the target liquidus ratio is significantly increased. In the comparative example, the time required for heating the semi-solid slurry is increased from 5-6 min to 9-10 min by the sectional power-variable temperature control method in the patent application, the heating efficiency is obviously reduced, the heating time is equivalent to that of the conventional method (semi-solid metal blank full-automatic continuous secondary heating device (CN201310521522.1)), and the method has no obvious improvement.
