The invention discloses a preparation method of an aluminum-based ceramic composite material. A porous ceramic blank is placed into a lower cavity of a hearth, an aluminum ingot is placed into an upper cavity of the hearth, vacuum heat injection squeezing-infiltration is performed, a sintering furnace is closed after infiltration, vacuum is pumped and kept, temperature is kept after one-time temperature rise, a manual valve is opened, inert gas is injected, infiltration is finished under atmospheric pressure, and finally, furnace cooling is performed to reach room temperature after infiltration to prepare the aluminum-based ceramic composite material. By vacuum heat injection squeezing sintering, the aluminum-based ceramic composite material is successfully prepared, the prepared aluminum-based ceramic composite material meets strength requirements and machining requirements, and the preparation method is simple in process, easy in operation and suitable for manufacturing parts needinglight weight, good conductivity, high strength and high temperature resistance.
