The invention relates to a method for preparing a local enhancement aluminum matrix composite and belongs to the technical field of preparing metal matrix composites. Al powder, Ti powder, graphite powder and a pure Al block are used as raw materials. The method includes the following steps that firstly, the Al powder, the Ti powder and the graphite powder are prepared to form Al-Ti-C mixed powder, and the Al-Ti-C mixed powder receives ball milling and is evenly mixed; secondly, the Al-Ti-C mixed powder is pressed to form a preformed blank which is placed into a graphite mold to be preheated to 500 DEG C; thirdly, the pure Al block is smelted to 940 DEG C through a crucible resistance furnace and then fast poured into the graphite mold, the preformed blank is ignited, a synthetic reaction happens, and the local enhancement aluminum matrix composite is obtained. The method for preparing the local enhancement aluminum matrix composite has the advantages of being fast in reaction, simple in technology, capable of saving energy, efficient, good in filling capacity, high in connection degree of a matrix and enhanced particles and the like. In addition, enhancement phase TiC particles are prevented from being contaminated by impurities such as oxygen, the method can be applied to the field of composites which only need local enhancement, and an expensive enhancement phase is omitted.
