A small projection with a height and width of about 40 and 50 µm, respectively, was formed on a twin-roll-cast A356 aluminum alloy sheet by cold rolling at a rolling speed of 0.5 m/min. This projection was then used as a die to form a groove with a depth and width of about 40 and 50 µm, respectively, on a polyethylene terephthalate plate by pressing.

In this study, a twin-roll casting sheet of 6061 aluminum alloy was cooled using furnace, asbestos, air, wind and water. The effect of cooling rate on the microstructure and properties of twin-roll casting 6061 aluminum alloy sheet were studied. Optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, microhardness tester and universal tensile machine were used to observe the microstructure and properties of twin-roll casting sheet of 6061 aluminum alloy. The results show that the higher the cooling rate, the smaller the grain size of the alloy and the smaller the number of precipitated phases in the matrix. Uniform grain size of the alloy could be obtained at a stable cooling rate. The hardness, tensile strength and elongation of the twin-roll casting sheet increased with cooling rate. Under wind cooling condition, the twin-roll casting sheet demonstrated excellent comprehensive performance, i.e., 88 MPa of yield strength, 178 MPa of tensile strength and 15% of elongation, respectively. A quantitative Hall–Petch relation was established to predict the yield strength of 6061 twin-roll casting sheets with different grain sizes and cooling rate.

In aluminum alloy sheet metal forming process, annealing treatment can improve the mechanical properties. The tensile test for different temperatures of 400°C, 450°C, 500°C, 550°C respectively have been carried out from 1h to 12h.The result revealed that the ductility increased with the increase of annealing temperature. It is found that the annealing treatment at 500°C for 6 h can get a good property. Furthermore, the result of tensile test showed that the yield strength increased from 130MPa before cold rolling to 190MPa after annealed, and the elongation of the sheet increased to 28.6%. The result of stamping test verified that the limiting draw ratio (LDR) increased after annealing treatment from 1.15 to 1.56. The value of blank holder force for the cylindrical cup is becoming smaller after the annealing treatment. The microstructure investigations on experimental aluminum alloys after long-time annealing and cold rolling conditions were presented. The changes of the main structural contituents have been obviously observed, which improved the formability of the alloys.

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%.
