[0002] Aluminum alloy has low density, high specific strength, good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and weldability, good processing performance, long service life, easy recycling, can achieve the purpose of lightweight and weight reduction, reduce costs, and therefore has a wide range of uses. This aluminum alloy cavity cover for ALD coating uses liquid cooling technology to reduce the temperature of the equipment. Compared with traditional air cooling, liquid cooling technology has higher heat dissipation efficiency and lower noise level. The liquid in the flow channel of the aluminum alloy cavity cover for ALD coating transfers heat from the equipment to the liquid, which can quickly take away the heat and keep the operating temperature of the equipment within a low range. The aluminum alloy cavity cover for ALD coating consists of a substrate and a cover. Due to the thin thickness of the cover, the traditional method usually uses fusion welding to fix the substrate and the cover, but the heat input of fusion welding is large, and the metal material of the cover may be burned. At the same time, the deformation and residual internal stress after welding are large, which is not convenient to use. Summary of the invention

After heating the aging hardened cavity cover to 300 degrees and keep it for one hour, cool it to room temperature in the heating furnace to release the internal stress and prevent the generation of new stress. Step 5: Shaping: After removing stress from the aluminum alloy cavity cover for ALD coating, remove the burrs on the surface, and then shape the top surface of the aluminum alloy substrate and cover plate to ensure that the flatness of the two surfaces is within 1mm; Step 6: Machining: The shaped aluminum alloy cavity cover is machined to machine the remaining features and shapes to facilitate the installation of subsequent functional parts and seals; Step 7, tapping: After the processing is completed, place the aluminum alloy cavity cover on a large platform, use the tapping equipment to process the threaded holes according to the drawing, and blow away the remaining aluminum chips; Step 8, water pressure detection: block the water outlet of the aluminum alloy cavity cover, connect the hydraulic pump to input an appropriate amount of clean water into the water inlet, observe whether there is liquid seepage in the weld area, whether the pressure maintenance requirement can be met within a certain period of time, and determine whether there are any defects in the weld.
