The industrial application of high-alloyed Al-Mg-Si alloys for the production of thin strips by means of twin-roll casting is limited due to the structural inhomogeneity and segregation formation. To reach the highest mechanical properties of the finished product, a direct influence on the strip formation conditions during the twin-roll casting can be applied. Analogous to the asymmetric rolling process, additional shear stresses were created in the strip forming zone by using different circumferential velocities and torques of the caster rolls. To provide the asymmetric process conditions, only one caster roll was left driven and the second one was left idling during the casting process. The microstructure and the mechanical properties of the strips in the as-cast state as well as after the homogenization and subsequent age-hardening were analyzed. A comparison of the test results showed a positive influence of the asymmetry conditions on the strips’ properties.

Abstract Twin Roll Casting technology belongs to modern, integrated method of processing aluminum and its alloys. This method includes preparation of liquid metal and its continuous casting between the rotating cylindrical crystallizers, optional homogenizing treatment, cold rolling and optional interoperation or final heat treatment. Final products of TRC method are strips with a thickness from few to several millimeters, which can be directly subjected to cold rolling process to afford a sheet. Properties of final product are limited by the material’s condition, its chemical composition and also selected path of its processing technology. The paper presents research results of chemical composition and mechanical properties of strips obtained in Twin Roll Casting processing line.

Experimental study on downstream rolling process for twin roll casting magnesium alloy strip was carried out. The microstructure of the casting and rolling strip were observed by OM, SEM, and TEM. The effects of homogenizing process, the parameters of rolling process and annealing after rolled on secondary rolling of AZ31B casting strip were analyzed. The results show that the twin roll casting strip are suitable for rolling at 380-420 °C after homogenizing at 400 oC for two hours, the reduction rate of each pass should be controlled lower than 18%. Mg alloy sheets with thickness from 0.3-1 mm can be produced in once annealing period in this way. By controlling the pass reduction and rolling temperature, the fabricated AZ31B Mg alloy sheets can achieve both high strength and good plasticity by grain refining below 10μm. The mechanical properties of rolled strip after annealing at 400 oC for 0.5h-1h could get tensile strength 220MPa and meantime elongation rate 20%.
