The invention discloses a method for
machining an aluminum
alloy air tank, and relates to the method for
machining an automobile air tank. According to the method, aluminum
alloy plates with marks being 5083 and the thicknesses being 2.8-3.0mm are respectively used for blanking and
machining of end covers and a tank body, then, the end covers and the tank body are installed and welded, seal packaging is conducted after
air tightness detection is qualified, and the surface of each adopted aluminum
alloy plate is covered with a thin film in the blanking process. The method includes the following steps of A, end cover machining, B, tank body machining, C, installing and
welding, wherein the end covers are welded to the end openings in the two ends of the tank body respectively, D,
air tightness detection and E, seal packaging. By means of the method for machining the aluminum alloy air tank, the high-level
performance requirement can be met, the high-level appearance requirement can also be met, and the method has the advantages of being high in
welding quality, convenient to operate, capable of lowering labor intensity, saving in energy,
environmentally friendly, long in service life, low in cost, good in development prospect and suitable for popularization and application.
