This study investigated the crystallization position and formation mechanism of globular crystals at the center area in the thickness direction of aluminum alloy strips cast by a high-speed twin roll caster. Twin roll casters for single strips and clad strips were used, as well as twin roll casters equipped with a cooling slope. The globular crystals were formed from dividing arms of dendrites of the solidified layer facing the center area at the roll gap. The arms of isolated dendrite also divided. No globular crystals were formed at the interfaces of clad strips with different solidification temperatures because of the temperature gradient at the interface which inhibited division of the dendrite arms. It was demonstrated that globular crystals at the center area of the thickness direction were formed by dendrite-arm-dividing at the roll gap by the strip casting clad strip. Experiments by semisolid-strip casting with the cooling slope showed that globular crystals in the molten metal existed in the solidification layers.

Twin Roll

A horizontal-type twin roll casting method has been popular for producing aluminum alloy strips, however, it is characterized by a relatively low productivity (1~6 m/min). In contrast, a vertical-type high-speed twin-roll casting method possesses an extremely high productivity (60~120 m/min (1~2 m/s)) and an excellent heat extraction ability. The rapid cooling effect provided significant microstructure refinement and mechanical properties improvement in various kinds of cast aluminum alloy products. Not only “product to product recycling” but also “up-grade recycling” can be achieved by making good use of these merits. Two examples of application showing the potential of vertical-type high-speed twin roll casting method are presented. (1) Several kinds of Al-Si base alloy were cast into the strips. Not only strength and toughness but also formability was increased in the twin roll cast products. In particular, great improvement in deformability shows the potential of the twin-roll cast aluminum alloy products as substitutes for some wrought aluminum alloy products. (2) The vertical-type tandem twin-roll caster was able to fabricate a clad strip by single step. The A4045/A3003/A4045 aluminum alloy clad sheets produced by the twin-roll casting showed better mechanical properties than the conventional hot-roll bonded clad sheets.

Cast Aluminum

With the rapid development of modern world aerospace science and technology, hi-tech weaponry and high-speed transportation tools, industrial production and high-tech equipment manufacturers have increasingly urgent demand for high-performance metal materials. The cast aluminum is a new aluminum alloy series developed by foundry industry recently. Because it does not need the solid solution hardening process and has good mechanical properties, it's loved by the manufacturing sector. This paper targets at channel angular deformation direction to study the cast aluminum tissue material .

High Speed Cutting

The analysis of cutting forces during in-cut and out-cut milling of EN AC-AlSi10Mg cast aluminum alloy was presented. The research included measurement of the components of the total cutting force: Ff, Fp and Fc (Fx, Fy, Fz respectively) and determination of their amplitudes at a constant feed per tooth value and the adopted variable technological parameters, i.e.: depth of cut ap, milling width ae and cutting speed vc. Based on the obtained results, it was found that along with the increase in the depth of cut and the milling width, the values of selected components and their amplitudes increase for both in-cut and out-cut milling. During rise of cutting speed, it was observed that the components of the total cutting force increase to the speed vc = 450 m/min, then their values begin to decrease. This is related to the transition from conventional machining to the range of High Speed Cutting. It is important that higher values of cutting forces were noted in the case of out-cut milling instead of in-cut milling.
