Effect of Casting Temperature on the Microstructure of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu Aluminium Alloy Billets Prepared by LFEC Process

Abstract:

In order to understand the effect of casting temperature on the low frequency electromagnetic casting process, 200mm billets of an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy were produced, the microstructure was analyzed and the temperature field was measured during the casting process. The experimental results showed that low frequency electromagnetic casting process has an evident grain refining effect on aluminum alloy and casting temperature is not a sensitive parameter for this process, which can tolerate a large range of casting temperature. In the range of 710 to 750 °C, casting temperature does not show significant effect on the microstructure.
