Effects of fast shot speed and vacuum level on the grain size and mechanical properties of this alloy were studied. Microstructure of the alloys was analyzed by SEM, EDX and optical microscope （OM）. The effect of heat treatment on high vacuum die-casting （HVDC） GW63K alloy was also studied. The results indicate that with the increase of fast velocity, the tensile yield strength hardly changes, but the elongation first increases, then decreases. The optimum heat treatment process is solution treatment at 748 K for 2 h and aging at 473 K for 80 h. Under this condition, GW63K magnesium alloy exhibits a maximum tensile strength and elongation of 308 MPa and 9.45%. There is significant correlation between ductility and the presence of external solidified cells （ESCs）. The as-cast GW63K alloy consists ofα-Mg and Mg24（Gd,Y）5 particles. After heat treatment, Gd and Y atoms dissolve intoα-Mg matrix.展开更多

Howeve...Silicon-based aluminum casting alloys are known to be one of the most widely used alloy systems mainly due to their superior casting characteristics and unique combination of mechanical and physical properties. However,manufacturing of thin-walled aluminum die-casting components,less than 1.0 mm in thickness,is generally known to be very difficult task to achieve aluminum casting alloys with high fluidity.Therefore,in this study,the optimal die-casting conditions for producing 297 mm×210 mm×0.7 mm thin-walled aluminum component was examined experimentally by using 2 different gating systems,tangential and split type,and vent design.Furthermore,computational solidification simulation was also conducted.The results showed that split type gating system was preferable gating design than tangential type gating system at the point of view of soundness of casting and distortion generated after solidification.It was also found that proper vent design was one of the most important factors for producing thin-wall casting components because it was important for the fulfillment of the thin-wall cavity and the minimization of the casting distortion.展开更多

文摘GW63K （Mg-6Gd-3Y-0.5Zr） magnesium alloys were prepared successfully by high-vacuum die-casting. Effects of fast shot speed and vacuum level on the grain size and mechanical properties of this alloy were studied. Microstructure of the alloys was analyzed by SEM, EDX and optical microscope （OM）. The effect of heat treatment on high vacuum die-casting （HVDC） GW63K alloy was also studied. The results indicate that with the increase of fast velocity, the tensile yield strength hardly changes, but the elongation first increases, then decreases. The optimum heat treatment process is solution treatment at 748 K for 2 h and aging at 473 K for 80 h. Under this condition, GW63K magnesium alloy exhibits a maximum tensile strength and elongation of 308 MPa and 9.45%. There is significant correlation between ductility and the presence of external solidified cells （ESCs）. The as-cast GW63K alloy consists ofα-Mg and Mg24（Gd,Y）5 particles. After heat treatment, Gd and Y atoms dissolve intoα-Mg matrix.
文摘Vehicle mass reduction in the automotive industry has become an industry-wide objective.Increasing fuel efficiency and greenhouse gas emission targets for engine-powered vehicles,and ambitions for extended range electric vehicles have motivated these reductions in vehicle mass.Mass reduction opportunities in structural automotive applications are increasingly realized through lightweight alloy castings,such as magnesium,primarily due to the ease of component substitution.The traditional benefits of magnesium die-castings including lightweighting and associated compounded mass savings,excellent strength-to-weight ratio,part consolidation,near net-shape forming,dimensional repeatability,and integration of additional components can be realized in closure applications.One recent example is the application of a magnesium die-casting for the structural inner of the liftgate in the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica,replacing nine parts in the previous generation and resulting in a liftgate assembly weight reduction of nearly 50%.The work presented here reviews past and current developments of magnesium die-castings in closure applications and discusses the benefits and challenges of magnesium alloys for these applications,including casting design,corrosion and fastening strategies,and the manufacturing design and assembly methodologies.
文摘The vacuum die-casting process,started 25 years ago in Japan,has been widely applied.This technology contributes very much to improvement of castings quality.The main factor causing the defects of die castings is the trapped air in the mold cavity,while the key technology of vacuum die-casting process is to avoid the trapped air effectively by evacuating the cavity before casting.At the same time,due to the shot speed and the casting pressure reduced in half,the service life of the die is prolonged and the productivity is enhanced,as well.Vacuum die-casting process is of great signif icance in improving the die castings quality and making up the shortcomings of super-high-speed shot casting.

文摘Al-Si-Mg alloys are the most commonly used material in high vacuum die-casting(HVDC),in which the morphology and distribution ofα-Al grains have important effect on mechanical properties.A multi-component quantitative cellular automaton(CA)model was developed to simulate the microstructure and microsegregation of HVDC Al-Si-Mg alloys with different Si contents(7%and 10%)and cooling rates during solidification.The grain number and average grain size with electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)analysis were used to verify the simulation.The relationship between grain size and nucleation order as well as nuclei density was investigated and discussed.It is found that the growth of grains will be restrained in the location with higher nuclei density.The influence of composition and cooling rate on the solute transport reveals that for AlSi7Mg0.3 alloy the concentration of solute Mg in liquid is higher at the beginning of eutectic solidification.The comparison between simulation and experiment results shows that externally solidified crystals(ESCs)have a significant effect for samples with high cooling rate and narrow solidification interval.

文摘Silicon-based aluminum casting alloys are known to be one of the most widely used alloy systems mainly due to their superior casting characteristics and unique combination of mechanical and physical properties. However,manufacturing of thin-walled aluminum die-casting components,less than 1.0 mm in thickness,is generally known to be very difficult task to achieve aluminum casting alloys with high fluidity.Therefore,in this study,the optimal die-casting conditions for producing 297 mm×210 mm×0.7 mm thin-walled aluminum component was examined experimentally by using 2 different gating systems,tangential and split type,and vent design.Furthermore,computational solidification simulation was also conducted.The results showed that split type gating system was preferable gating design than tangential type gating system at the point of view of soundness of casting and distortion generated after solidification.It was also found that proper vent design was one of the most important factors for producing thin-wall casting components because it was important for the fulfillment of the thin-wall cavity and the minimization of the casting distortion.
