Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of new aluminum-lithium alloy materials and manufacturing technology, in particular to an aluminum-lithium alloy thick-walled annular part with high specific strength and specific stiffness and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Metal ring materials can be used as key connection, transmission, slewing and supporting components in the fields of major mechanical equipment, pressure vessels, and aerospace equipment manufacturing. Since aluminum-lithium alloy has a wide service temperature range, good casting performance and mechanical properties, and the density of the current lightweight aluminum-lithium alloy is only 1 / 3 of that of traditional steel materials, it is in the face of the global energy crisis and environmental degradation. In the background, exploring the use of aluminum-lithium alloy annular structural parts to replace traditional steel materials has broad industrial application p...
