In order to reduce the exhaust emission of the automobile and improve the endurance mileage of the new energy automobile, the weight reduction of the automobile becomes the development trend of the whole industry. Among them, the use of aluminum alloy instead of conventional steel becomes one of the important measures for the weight reduction of automobiles. The die-casting molding process has the advantages of high dimensional accuracy, high production efficiency, high material utilization rate, excellent mechanical property, good economic benefit of mass production and the like, and has been widely used for molding automobile parts. Therefore, the production of the aluminum alloy automobile structural part by adopting the die casting process has important significance for automobile weight and emission reduction. The solution treatment mainly aims at dissolving alloy elements into an aluminum matrix so as to separate out nano strengthening phases in the subsequent aging stage to strengthen the alloy. Theoretically, on the premise of not causing serious growth of metal grains, the higher the solid solution temperature is, the longer the solid solution time is, the more thorough the solid solution of alloy elements is, and the stronger the subsequent aging precipitation strengthening effect is. However, due to the characteristics of gas coiling and residual stress in the high-speed die casting process, the conventional aluminum alloy die castings are easy to cause serious bubbling and deformation in the high-temperature long-time solution heat treatment stage, so that the application of the solution heat treatment process of the aluminum die castings is limited. In order to reduce bubbling and deformation induced during the solid solution stage of die castings, the following patents disclose the following solid solution methods:

the Chinese patent No. CN201910227173.X reduces the occurrence of bubbling phenomenon of aluminum castings through a low-temperature solution heat treatment process.
The Chinese patent CN 201910419250.1 realizes the reinforcement of the aluminum casting by a composite heat treatment process of 200-220 ℃/3-5 h-550-580 ℃/3-6 h-180-200 ℃/7-8 h.
