An inline hot rolling was operated on 5182 aluminum alloy strip cast using a vertical type high speed caster (VHSTRC) at the speed of 60 m/min. A porosity existing at center line of the thickness and a ripple mark on the surface, these are typical defects of the strip cast by the VHSTRC, could be improved by the inline rolling. The rolling speed was as same as the roll-casting-speed of 60m/min. The temperature of the strip, when the inline rolling was operated, was 450oC. The reduction of the strip of the inline rolling was 35%.

Twin Roll

When a strip of Al-Si alloy with an Si content of 1% was cast using a vertical-type high-speed twin-roll caster, cracks form in its surface. The effects of the pouring method, the shape and position of the nozzle, and the roll surface texture on surface crack formation were evaluated with a roll caster. The rolls were made of a copper alloy, and the roll speed was 30 m/min. The as-cast strips were bent to investigate the degree of crack formation, and the outer surface of the strips was observed without magnification and with a stereomicroscope to determine the influence of the pouring method, the shape and position of the nozzle, and the roll surface. A roll machined to form V-shaped grooves 0.4 mm deep on the surface of the strips was most useful for reducing surface cracking. Changing the shape of the nozzle tip was second-most effective. There was a clear correlation between the roll surface condition and surface cracking in the Al-Si strip.

Porosity occurred in the 5182 aluminum alloy strip cast by a vertical type high speed twin roll caster. The porosity was caused by high-roll-speed and low-roll-load. Improvement of the porosity was tried by a scraper. The scraper was mounted on the roll, and the scraper was moveable depend on the thickness of the solidified layer on the roll. The scraper scribed the semisolid layer to improve the porosity. The scraper was useful to decrease the porosity of roll cast 5182 aluminum alloy strip.

In-line rolling was operated on the as-cast strip cast by a vertical type high speed twin roll caster. The AA6022 and AA6111 strip was tested. The casting and rolling speed was 60m/min. Reduction was from 20% to 55%. The temperature of the rolling was within from 400oC to 450oC. The porosity and crack in the strip were improved by the in-line rolling. The in-line as rolled strip was cold rolled down to 1mm, and T4 heat treatment was operated. The microstructure of the strip, on which in-line rolling was operated, became uniform at thickness direction than the microstructure of the strip on which only the cold rolling was operated. The surface defects like the ripple mark and trace line of the nozzle were improved.

Center Area

High speed roll casting of AA5182 aluminum alloy was tried using a vertical type high speed twin roll caster equipped with mild-steel rolls. Parting material was not used and speed was 80m/min. AA5182 strip, which thickness was 2.1mm, could be cast continuously. However, porosity occurred at center area at the thickness direction of the strip of the as-cast strip. Si was added to original AA5182 to improve the porosity at 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 mass%. The porosity was improved as the content of the Si increased. The elongation resulting from the tension test was the best when 0.2mass%Si was added. The clack on the surface was improved by the increase of the Si content. Roll casting ability was improved by the Si, too.
