Aluminium alloy sheet mould pressing quenching composite molding method and integrated device thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses an aluminium alloy sheet mould pressing quenching composite molding method and an integrated device thereof. The method comprises the steps of heating a slab type blank holder, and cooling a female die and a male die; conducting solution heat treatment on an aluminium alloy sheet in a heating furnace; then conveying the aluminium alloy sheet subjected to solid solution and heat preservation from the heating furnace to the blank holder to be place in a centring mode, and ensuring that the sheet is still in a high-temperature state before molding; then conducting die assembly, completing the cooling and quenching process when aluminium alloy parts are in a die assembly state, and ensuring that the shapes of the parts do not change during quenching; conducting die sinking, wherein the aluminium alloy parts and the blank holder demould from the male die synchronously, taking out molding parts, fast moving the molding parts to the aluminium alloy sheet subjected to solid solution and heat preservation according to beats, and finally performing enhanced treatment on the aluminium alloy parts to obtain the final aluminium alloy parts. According to the aluminium alloy sheet mould pressing quenching composite molding method and the integrated device thereof, inverted female and male dies and a composite die are adopted, and the method is applicable to the preparation of aluminium alloy sheet parts capable of being subjected to heat treatment.

Problems solved by technology

The main alloying element of 7000 series aluminum alloy is zinc, which can obtain high strength, good corrosion resistance and good welding performance through proper heat treatment process, but its plasticity is low

However, there are two problems in this cold forming method: first, the poor formability of the aluminum alloy sheet at room temperature will cause cracking defects in the formed parts with complex shapes during cold forming, so the forming efficiency is low; second, the parts are taken out after forming. During the solid solution and aging T6 treatment process, since the parts need solution heating, quenching and cooling, deformation and springback are prone to occur due to thermal stress, resulting in poor dimensional accuracy of the parts

However, there are the following problems during molding: first, the method requires that the aluminum alloy part after forming must be separated from the die quickly along with the punch and the blank holder and stay on the blank holder and the punch to complete its cooling and quenching. In the process, since the parts hav
