AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies make it difficult to manufacture large irregularly shaped ring components, especially those in the 5-meter range, as their performance and size cannot meet high requirements.
Using aluminum-lithium alloy materials, through steps such as forging, punching, reaming, rolling, machining, solution quenching and aging treatment, 5-meter-class irregular rings with an outer diameter of 5000-5500mm are prepared, possessing high triaxial mechanical properties.
High-performance manufacturing of 5-meter-class irregular rings has been achieved, with excellent levels of tangential and axial tensile strength, yield strength and elongation, meeting the requirements of large spacecraft.
