Problems solved by technology

[0003] Since the internal stress of the 7-series aluminum alloy casting process is very large, if the existing method is used to prepare the 7-series aluminum alloy ingot, it is difficult to achieve a good match in the casting process due to the casting temperature, casting cooling water flow, and casting speed, and the crystallizer itself The smoothness of the aluminum alloy is poor, and the lubrication performance is poor during the casting process, which leads to the cracking of the bottom and corner of the ingot, which affects the yield of the 7 series aluminum alloy ingot
The experimental results show that according to the existing method for preparing 7-series aluminum alloy ingots, the forming rate of the ingot is only about 60%, and the finished product rate is less than 50%. The low yield of 7-series aluminum alloy ingots seriously limits its wide application , therefore, it is necessary to study the preparation method of the new 7 series aluminum alloy ingot
