Description

Complete annealing method of heat-treatable reinforced aluminum alloy sheet
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of aluminum alloy plate processing, in particular to a complete annealing method of a heat-treatable reinforced aluminum alloy sheet.
Background
The complete annealing is one of the heat treatment methods for aluminum alloy products, and mainly aims to reduce the work hardening and residual stress introduced in the rolling, extrusion or forging production process of aluminum alloy workpieces. In order to ensure the minimum strength after annealing, the traditional process for fully annealing the heat-treatable reinforced aluminum alloy is to heat the product to a temperature above the recrystallization temperature (generally 320-410 ℃) and keep the temperature for a period of time, cool the product to 260 ℃ or even 200 ℃ at a slow cooling rate (generally along with slow cooling, the cooling rate is less than or equal to 30 ℃/h) and then discharge the product from the furnace for air cooling after the product is fully recrystallized. The essence of the heat treatment process is that: the product is organized from a deformation state with higher energy storage above the recrystallization temperature, and new crystal grains without distortion are formed again through recrystallization; a very slow cooling rate is provided during the annealing cooling process, avoiding the quenching effect from re-hardening the alloy.
The box-type annealing furnace is a periodical heat treatment furnace, alloy sheets are placed on a heat-resistant material rack in a coiled material form and distributed by a trolley capable of entering and exiting the furnace, and steel sleeves penetrate through the middle of the coiled materials to enable the coiled materials to be supported at two ends of the material rack. After the materials are prepared, the heat treatment coiled material and the whole material rack and the sleeve are fed into a furnace together for heat treatment. The heat treatment method has good heat preservation effect, can control the cooling speed of furnace cooling, and is a main method for completely annealing the heat-treatable reinforced aluminum alloy sheet in the industry at present. However, when the box-type annealing furnace is used for carrying out complete annealing heat treatment, the aluminum alloy sheet is in a coiled strip form and is not fully unfolded during production, so that oil stains on the surface of the aluminum alloy sheet are not easy to volatilize completely, and part of the oil stains can remain on the surface of the aluminum alloy to form annealed oil stains all the time, and finally the surface quality of the aluminum alloy sheet is lower. The sheet is heated in a box annealing furnace in a tape coiling mode, heat is gradually transferred from outside to inside the roll by conduction, and the heating time is increased along with the increase of the diameter of the tape coiling; meanwhile, due to the influence of stacking of the material rack, the sleeve and the coiled material, the heating and temperature equalizing time is sometimes as long as tens of hours. In such a long heating process, most of the deformation energy storage accumulated in the plate is consumed by the recovery process, so that the recrystallization nucleation rate is reduced, meanwhile, the temperature difference exists between the inner layer and the outer layer of the coil, the outer layer of the coil is at a high temperature for a long time, the grain growth is particularly serious, and as a result, the serious uneven grain growth between the inner layer and the outer layer of the coil is caused, so that the physical property and the mechanical property of the thin plate are inconsistent.
The air cushion type continuous heat treatment furnace is also a periodic heat treatment furnace, coiled materials pass through a furnace body of a heat treatment section in an uncoiler in an uncoiling mode, and furnace wind blows to the surface of the strip from the upper side and the lower side in the vertical direction, so that the thin plate floats and moves under the action of air flow. The production mode can realize the rapid heating of the sheet band and can also obtain high-quality surface quality. However, since the sheet strip is cooled in an expanded form, and the condition for realizing "slow cooling" is not provided, it is considered that the sheet strip is not suitable for the heat treatment for the complete annealing of the heat treatable reinforced aluminum alloy.

The key points of the method of the invention are as follows: the complete annealing process is carried out in two stages, specifically: firstly, carrying out first-order annealing treatment on the alloy by adopting an air cushion type continuous heat treatment furnace, then carrying out second-order annealing treatment on the alloy by adopting a box type annealing furnace, uncoiling the first-order annealing treatment, matching with a first-order annealing treatment process, completely volatilizing oil stains on the surface of an aluminum alloy coiled material, avoiding forming annealing oil spots, matching with the second-order annealing treatment of the box type annealing furnace, obtaining a completely annealed aluminum alloy coiled material, and realizing 'slow cooling along with the furnace' of the box type annealing furnace; the fully annealed heat-treatable reinforced aluminum alloy sheet produced by the method has the advantages of softer mechanical property, excellent surface quality and uniform and fine grain structure, and can meet the use requirements of high-end fields such as aerospace and the like; the aluminum alloy sheet is firstly cleaned after being uncoiled and then is sent into an air cushion type continuous heat treatment furnace for first-order annealing treatment, so that annealing oil spots are not easy to form, the surface quality of the produced aluminum alloy sheet can be strengthened by heat treatment in a complete annealing state, and the stability of the surface quality is higher; the inner and outer rings of the first-order annealed coiled belt are respectively provided with a temperature thermocouple, so that the real-time temperature inside and outside the coiled belt can be conveniently monitored, the process control of second-order annealing treatment is facilitated, and the annealing operation is simpler and more convenient; and (3) strictly controlling the furnace cooling rate in the second-order annealing treatment step 2.4), and producing the aluminum alloy sheet with higher structural uniformity, finer grains and more stable performance.
While the invention has been described in detail in the foregoing general description and with reference to specific embodiments thereof, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that modifications and improvements can be made thereto. Accordingly, such modifications or improvements may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention and are intended to be within the scope of the invention as claimed.
