Embodiment 1

[0025] The 7055 aluminum alloy spray-formed ingot is extruded (extrusion ratio 14.8) into a Φ130mm bar after being wagoned, and the bar is processed into a product blank. The wall thickness of the blank is about 12mm. The blank is subjected to T6 heat treatment. The heat treatment steps are as follows: :

[0026] a) Secondary solid solution treatment, room temperature rises to 450°C for 2 hours, keeps at 450°C for 3 hours, rises to 477°C for 0.5 hours, keeps at 477°C for 3 hours, and quenches at 50°C.

[0027] b) Single-stage peak aging treatment, the room temperature was raised to 120°C for 1 hour, and kept at 120°C for 24 hours.

[0028] c) High temperature stress relief aging, heat preservation at 140°C for 10 hours.

[0029] In the above examples, compared with the product blank without high-temperature stress-relief aging, after high-temperature stress-relief aging, the tendency of cracking in the subsequent machining process is significantly reduced, the amount of defor...

[0033] Extrude the 7085 aluminum alloy spray-formed ingot into a plate with a specification of δ100mm×200mm, and the blanking length is 250mm. The plate is subjected to T76 heat treatment, and the steps are as follows:

[0034] a) Secondary solid solution treatment, room temperature rises to 450°C for 2 hours, keeps at 450°C for 3 hours, rises to 477°C for 0.5 hours, keeps at 477°C for 3 hours, and quenches at 50°C.

[0035] b) Two-stage artificial aging treatment, the room temperature was raised to 120°C for 1 hour, kept at 120°C for 8 hours, and then raised to 160°C for 12 hours for 1 hour.

[0036] After the heat treatment is completed, it is machined, the wall thickness of the product is about 15mm, and then a high temperature stress relief aging is carried out. The steps are:

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a 7000-series aluminum alloy, in particular to a heat treatment method for reducing the stress of a spray-formed 7000-series aluminum alloy product. Background technique [0002] The 7000 series (Al-Zn-Mg-Cu) aluminum alloy with Zn, Mg, and Cu as the main alloying elements has the advantages of low density, high strength, and good plasticity, and is currently widely used in high-end aerospace and other high-end fields. High-toughness aluminum alloy; the 7000 series aluminum alloy produced by spray forming process has the advantages of fine grain, uniform and dense structure, and no macro segregation. [0003] The 7000 series aluminum alloy belongs to the heat-treatable aluminum alloy, and its strength can be greatly improved through various heat treatment systems. For example, the tensile strength of spray-formed 7055-T6 state can reach 720MPa, which is 227% higher than that of 220MPa in the O state, but at the same time , the...
