Description

Forming method of aluminum alloy top cover component with convex hole
Technical Field

Background
The creep age forming technology is a technology which is generated for solving the difficult problem of high-performance and high-precision manufacturing of large-scale complex integral components in aerospace. The technology utilizes the creep and time effect strengthening characteristics of the material under the action of a stress field and a temperature field, enables a workpiece to be attached to the molded surface of a die in a vacuum loading mode without a convex die or a mechanical loading mode with the convex die, and keeps the material in a constant temperature state for a certain time to enable the material to generate plastic flow so as to realize the forming and forming cooperative manufacturing of the component.
The creep age forming technology not only can realize the integrated forming of large components, but also can greatly improve the mechanical property of materials. Compared with the traditional integral wallboard component forming technology, the technology has the advantages of high forming precision, good dimensional stability, difficulty in generating processing cracks and the like.
