Aluminum alloy sheet for molding and method for producing same
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an aluminum alloy sheet for forming which reduces the amount of spring back after press forming of a sheet material and a method for manufacturing the same.
Background
In the press forming of a plate material, when bending a material, if a tool is removed, a portion that is elastically deformed is recovered and the dimensional shape is poor due to rebound. For rebound, generally the harder the material will be, the greater will be its amount. Therefore, in order to suppress the dimensional shape failure, it is necessary to reduce the material strength and the elastic deformation region of the stress-strain curve.
Therefore, conventionally, in order to reduce the spring back amount, a fixed pressing (pressing) operation has been performed in which a pressing force is applied to a plate material in the plate thickness direction. By this method, the in-plane stress of the plate material can be changed in such a manner that the rebound is suppressed by changing the stress in the plate thickness direction. However, in this method, depending on the material, there is a case where the reduction in the rebound amount is small, and further measures are required.
Based on this, for example, patent document 1 discloses the following method as a method of reducing the rebound amount: by introducing flattening after the solution treatment, a layer harder than the average hardness is provided at a distance of 1/4 of the plate thickness from the plate surface layer, thereby improving the shape freezing property.

Detailed Description
The aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention is characterized in that the hardness (Hv) is measured at 1/16 of the plate thickness interval in the plate thickness direction from the 1/2 depth position to the plate surface, the hardness (Hv) is plotted on the vertical axis, the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position is plotted on the horizontal axis, the hardness distribution is plotted on the basis of the plot of the hardness distribution, the relation between the hardness (Hv) and the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position is fitted by a first order function, and when the slope A of the first order function is obtained by the least square method, the value obtained by multiplying the slope A by the plate thickness (mm) is 10 to 28.
The aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1, 3 and 9. FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention. Fig. 3 is a graph in which the hardness distribution is plotted for example B, with the vertical axis being the hardness (Hv) and the horizontal axis being the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness. Fig. 9 is a graph in which the hardness distribution is plotted for comparative example H, with the vertical axis being the hardness (Hv) and the horizontal axis being the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness.
The measurement position of hardness (Hv) will be described with reference to fig. 1. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of an aluminum alloy sheet 1 for forming cut along a plane perpendicular to a sheet surface. In FIG. 1, the position indicated by reference numeral 3 is a 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness. That is, 1/2 depth position 3 of the plate thickness means: a position in the plate thickness direction 6 which is offset from the plate surface 7 by a length q of only 1/2 of the plate thickness p. The position indicated by reference numeral 5 is a 1/4 depth position of the plate thickness. That is, the 1/4 depth position 5 of the plate thickness means: a position in the plate thickness direction 6 which is offset from the plate surface 7 by a length r of only 1/4 of the plate thickness p.
The method for solving the slope a will be described. Slope a is the slope: when the hardness (Hv) is measured at 1/16 of the plate thickness from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness to the plate surface in the plate thickness direction, and the hardness distribution is plotted with the vertical axis set as the hardness (Hv) and the horizontal axis set as the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness, the slope of the linear function obtained by fitting the relationship between the hardness (Hv) obtained by the least square method and the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness is fitted by the linear function based on the plot of the hardness distribution. First, in the cross section of the aluminum alloy sheet for forming, the hardness (Hv) is measured at intervals of 1/16 of the sheet thickness p in the sheet thickness direction 6 from the 1/2 depth position 3 to the sheet surface position 4. Next, as shown in fig. 3, the hardness (Hv) at each measurement position was plotted with the vertical axis set to hardness (Hv) and the horizontal axis set to distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness. Next, from a plot of the obtained hardness distribution, the relationship between the hardness (Hv) and the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness was fitted by a linear function, and the slope a of the linear function was obtained by a least square method. In embodiment B shown in fig. 3, the slope a is found to be 16 according to the least square method. In comparative example H, the slope a was found to be 4.9 by the least square method as shown in fig. 9, in the same manner.
In the present invention, the hardness (Hv) is measured by a method according to JIS Z2244, and is, for example, a value obtained as follows: the aluminum alloy sheet was resin-embedded, mirror-polished, and then measured under a test load of 10gf (0.098N) and a holding time of 10 seconds by a micro Vickers hardness tester (FM-110, manufactured by FUTURE-TECH CORP.) for a rolled rectangular cross section (surface perpendicular to the plate surface).
In order to measure the accurate hardness of the portion near the plate surface at a position 1/16 of the plate surface, in the present invention, when the plate thickness is small, the hardness (Hv) may be measured at a position apart from the surface by 1/16 or more of the approximate thickness.
The method for solving the slopes B1 and B2 will be described. From the plot of the distribution of hardness from the 1/4 depth position 5 to the plate surface position 4 of the plate thickness among plots of the distribution of hardness obtained when the slope a is obtained, the relationship between the hardness (Hv) from the 1/4 depth position 5 to the plate surface position 4 of the plate thickness and the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness is fitted by a linear function, and the slope B1 of the linear function is obtained by a least square method. Further, from a plot of the distribution of hardness from 1/2 depth position 3 to 1/4 depth position 5 of the plate thickness among plots of the distribution of hardness obtained when the slope a is obtained, a relation between hardness (Hv) from 1/2 depth position 3 to 1/4 depth position 5 of the plate thickness and a distance (mm) from 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness is fitted by a linear function, and the slope B2 of the linear function is obtained by a least square method.
In the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention, based on the plot of the distribution of hardness from the 1/2 depth position to the sheet surface position of the sheet thickness obtained as described above, "the value obtained by multiplying the value of the slope A of the primary function (slope A. Times. Sheet thickness (mm)) obtained by fitting the relation between the hardness (Hv) obtained by the least square method and the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the sheet thickness" from the 1/2 depth position to the sheet surface position of the sheet thickness is 10 to 28, preferably 10 to 20, particularly preferably 12 to 17. When the value of the slope a×sheet thickness (mm) is in the above range, the amount of reduction in the spring-back amount due to the fixed extrusion increases, and the shape freezing property is excellent. On the other hand, if the value of slope a×sheet thickness (mm) is lower than the above range, the amount of reduction in spring back due to fixed compression becomes small, and shape freezing property is poor. In addition, a large amount of work hardening is required to increase the slope a, and in order to set the value of slope a×plate thickness (mm) to a value exceeding the above range, an excessively large work hardening is required to increase the slope a, or an excessively large plate thickness is required. If the plate thickness is too large, it becomes difficult to form the distribution of hardness of the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention in the plate thickness direction.
In the present invention, based on a plot of the distribution of hardness from the 1/2 depth position to the plate surface position of the plate thickness, "a linear function having a slope A of a linear function obtained by fitting a relationship between hardness (Hv) obtained by a least square method and distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness" and a plot of the distribution of hardness from the 1/2 depth position to the plate surface position of the plate thickness by a linear function "(R 2 ) It is 0.50 or more, preferably 0.70 or more, particularly preferably 0.80 or more.
In the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention, from the plot of the distribution of hardness from the 1/2 depth position of the sheet thickness to the sheet surface position obtained as described above, the absolute value of the difference (B1-B2) between the "obtained by fitting the relationship between the hardness (Hv) obtained by the least square method and the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness by the linear function" between the 1/4 depth position of the plate thickness and the plate surface obtained based on the plot of the distribution of the hardness from the 1/4 depth position of the plate thickness and the plate surface "between the slope B1 of the linear function and the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness and the 1/4 depth position of the plate thickness obtained based on the plot of the distribution of the hardness from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness and the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness by the linear function" obtained by fitting the relationship between the hardness (Hv) obtained by the least square method and the distance (mm) from the 1/2 depth position of the plate thickness by the linear function "is preferably 10 or less, particularly preferably 8 or less. By plotting the distribution of the hardness from the 1/2 depth position to the plate surface position of the aluminum alloy plate for forming, the effect of reducing the spring-back amount due to the fixed press can be improved by making the value of the difference between the slope B1 and the slope B2 in the above-described range.
In the present invention, the reason why the hardness is measured at 1/16 of the plate thickness in the plate thickness direction is that, when the hardness is measured at 1/16 of the plate thickness in the plate thickness direction by dividing the region from the 1/4 depth position to the plate surface position and the region from the 1/2 depth position to the 1/4 depth position, the fitting linear function can be plotted at the measurement position of 4 points in each region, and the reliability of the slope value of the linear function is improved. On the other hand, for example, when the hardness is measured at 1/10 of the plate thickness in the plate thickness direction, if the case where it is difficult to measure the hardness in the vicinity of the outermost surface is considered, the fitting linear function is plotted by the measurement positions of 2 points, and the reliability of the slope value of the linear function is lowered.
The aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention has a sheet thickness of 0.4 to 5.0mm, preferably 0.8 to 2.7mm. In the aluminum alloy sheet having a sheet thickness lower than or exceeding the above range, it is difficult to form a distribution of hardness having a value of "slope A. Times. Sheet thickness (mm)" of 10 to 28, preferably 10 to 20, particularly preferably 12 to 17.
The basic components of the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention are not particularly limited, and the aluminum alloy of the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention may be various aluminum alloys such as 1000 series, 2000 series, 3000 series, 4000 series, 5000 series, 6000 series, 7000 series, and the like.
The aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention is preferably made of JIS5000 series aluminum alloy or JIS6000 series aluminum alloy.
More preferably, the composition of the JIS5000 series aluminum alloy is Si:0.25 mass% or less, fe:0.40 mass% or less, cu:0.10 mass% or less, mn:0.10 mass% or less, mg:2.20 to 2.80 mass percent of Cr:0.15 to 0.35 mass% of Zn:0.10 mass% or less, the balance being aluminum and unavoidable impurities.
More preferably, the composition of the JIS6000 series aluminum alloy is Si:0.20 to 0.60 mass percent of Fe:0.35 mass% or less, cu:0.10 mass% or less, mn:0.10 mass% or less, mg:0.45 to 0.90 mass%, cr:0.10 mass% or less, zn:0.10 mass% or less of Ti:0.10 mass% or less, the balance being aluminum and unavoidable impurities.
The aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention has a tensile strength of preferably 140.0MPa or more, more preferably 150.0 to 300.0MPa, particularly preferably 160.0 to 290.0MPa. The aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention has a value of "slope A×sheet thickness (mm)" of 10 to 28, preferably 10 to 20, particularly preferably 12 to 17, and further preferably has an absolute value of "slope B1-slope B2" of preferably 10 or less, particularly preferably 8 or less, whereby the aluminum alloy sheet has a high tensile strength of preferably 140.0MPa or more, more preferably 150.0 to 300.0MPa, particularly preferably 160.0 to 290.0MPa, and the reduction in spring-back amount due to stationary extrusion is increased, resulting in excellent shape freezing property.
The plate thickness of example B plotted for the distribution of hardness shown in fig. 3 is 0.81mm, which is an aluminum alloy plate as follows: the JIS A6063 aluminum alloy was cast according to a conventional method, hot rolled and cold rolled according to a conventional method to a plate thickness of 0.81mm, then solution treated and artificially aged, and then flattened by 3.0% after artificially aged. As shown in fig. 3, in the plot of the distribution of hardness in example B, the hardness of the center portion of the plate thickness (1/2 depth position of the plate thickness) was the lowest, and the hardness varied linearly up to the plate surface. The slope a obtained by the least square method based on the plot of the distribution of hardness in fig. 3 is 16. Therefore, the value of "slope A. Times. Plate thickness (mm)" is 13 (16. Times. 0.81). Next, with respect to the aluminum alloy sheet of example B, 90 degree bending test was conducted at 20kgf (196) N, 100kgf (980) N, 200kgf (1961N), and as a result, the spring back amounts were 5.7 °, 3.7 °, respectively. In the aluminum alloy sheet of example B, the phenomenon of the reduction in the spring-back amount was confirmed under the condition that the load of the 90 ° bending test was large, that is, under the condition of so-called fixed press.
The plate thickness of comparative example H plotted for the distribution of hardness shown in FIG. 9 was 0.82mm, which is an aluminum alloy plate as follows: the JIS A6063 aluminum alloy was cast according to a conventional method, hot rolled and cold rolled according to a conventional method to a plate thickness of 0.82mm, then flattened by 3.0%, then solution treated, and then artificially aged. As shown in fig. 9, in the plot of the distribution of hardness of comparative example H, the slope a obtained by the least square method was 4.9. Therefore, the value of "slope A. Times. Plate thickness (mm)" is 4.0 (4.9X0.82). Next, 90 degree bending tests were conducted on the aluminum alloy sheet of comparative example H at 20kgf, 100kgf, 200kgf, and as a result, the spring back amounts were 8.7 °, 10.3 °, 8.0 °, respectively. In the aluminum alloy sheet of comparative example H, the spring-back amount was unchanged even under the condition of a large load in the 90 DEG bending test, that is, under the condition of so-called fixed press.
The aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention has excellent formability in a 90 ° bending test corresponding to a high load under a fixed press condition by setting the value of "slope a×sheet thickness (mm)" to 10 to 28, preferably 10 to 20, particularly preferably 12 to 17. In general, a hard material strongly exerts an influence of springback, and therefore, it is difficult to realize a material having high strength and excellent moldability. In such a technical background, in the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention, a region having low hardness is formed in the sheet thickness direction, and the change in hardness in the sheet thickness direction is controlled so that the value of "slope a×sheet thickness (mm)" satisfies 10 to 28, preferably 10 to 20, particularly preferably 12 to 17, whereby the in-plane stress of the sheet material can be changed by fixed press to reduce the spring back amount, and therefore, high strength and excellent shape freezing property are obtained.

The reason why the above-described hardness distribution in the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention is exhibited in the method for producing an aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the first aspect of the present invention or the method for producing an aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the second aspect of the present invention is as follows.
The hardness distribution in the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention is considered to originate from work hardening. The dislocation of the metal increases due to the processing stress, and the internal stress is accumulated. In work hardening, if the dislocations excessively increase, the dislocations may intertwine or break with each other to cause hardening of the material itself. In large-scale deformation such as hot rolling, stress is uniformly transmitted to the entire plate thickness, and therefore, the hardness distribution in the plate thickness direction does not occur. In contrast, in the cold rolling or flattening of (1 a) to (3 a) and (1 b) to (3 b), since deformation is small compared with hot rolling, work hardening is likely to occur at the surface layer and the vicinity thereof, and a hardness distribution satisfying the prescribed hardness distribution of the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention can be formed in the sheet thickness direction. This is also evident from examples a to F. In addition, based on the above principle, in the method of bending the plate for the purpose of forcing the warping of the plate such as the levelers of (4 a) and (4 b), the plate surface layer is also work-hardened, so that a predetermined hardness distribution satisfying the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention can be formed in the plate thickness direction. This can also be seen in example G.
Since the effect of reducing the spring-back amount in the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention is based on the hardness distribution in the sheet thickness direction derived from work hardening, the same tendency can be obtained not only for work hardening type alloys such as JIS5000 series but also for heat treatment type alloys such as JIS6000 series. In the heat-treated alloy, a large amount of precipitates are formed before and after artificial aging, and therefore, the hardness is changed by the influence of the precipitates. However, it is considered that the hardness distribution in the plate thickness direction of the aluminum alloy plate for forming of the present invention is derived from work hardening by cold rolling, leveling, etc., and therefore, the offset of the hardness distribution itself is not affected before and after aging. This can also be seen in examples a to G.
The rebound mainly involves elastic deformation when bending the material. The lower the strength material, the narrower the elastic deformation region, and therefore, the lower the strength material, the smaller the spring-back amount. In the aluminum alloy sheet for forming of the present invention, since a soft layer is present in the center portion of the sheet thickness, the elastic deformation region of the portion is narrow, and as a result, the effect of reducing the spring-back amount can be improved. That is, it is considered that the softer layer is more widely present in the plate thickness direction, and the layer is more plastically deformed, so that the effect of reducing the rebound amount can be improved.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to the examples shown below.
Examples
Example 1
JIS a6063 aluminum alloy and JIS 5052 aluminum alloy were cast into ingots by DC casting. Next, the JIS A6063 aluminum alloy was subjected to the homogenization treatment, hot rolling, cold rolling, solution treatment, and artificial aging treatment in this order, and the JIS 5052 aluminum alloy was subjected to the homogenization treatment, hot rolling, cold rolling, and stabilization treatment in this order, and the production conditions shown in Table 1 or Table 2 were operated in these steps, whereby the JIS A6063 aluminum alloy was subjected to the production conditions shown in Table 1, the aluminum alloy sheet having the sheet thickness shown in Table 1 was produced at 0.80mm, and the JIS 5052 aluminum alloy sheet having the sheet thickness shown in Table 2 was produced at 2.70 mm. The conditions of the homogenization treatment, the solution treatment, the artificial aging treatment, and the stabilization treatment are set to general conditions.
The differences between the conditions and the standard plate are as follows. Example a: the cold working rate is improved. Example B: after the artificial ageing treatment, a levelling with a reduction of 3.0% was carried out. Example C: the number of times of cold working is increased. Example D: the number of times of cold working is increased, and the flattening with the rolling reduction of 3.0% is implemented after the artificial aging treatment. Example E: after the artificial ageing treatment, a levelling with a reduction of 5.0% was carried out. Example F: after the artificial ageing treatment, a levelling with a reduction of 10.0% was carried out. Example G: a leveler-based treatment was performed after the solution treatment. Comparative example H: after cold rolling and before solution treatment, flattening with a reduction of 3.0% was performed. Comparative example I: the number of cold working channels is reduced. Example J: the cold rolling reduction ratio is improved. Example K: the number of times of cold working is increased. Example L: after the stabilization treatment, a leveling with a reduction of 3.0% was carried out.
TABLE 1
TABLE 2
The method and evaluation criteria for each evaluation are as follows.
< hardness (Hv) measurement >
The hardness (Hv) was measured by the method according to JIS Z2244. After embedding an aluminum alloy sheet resin and mirror polishing, the hardness (Hv) was measured under a measurement condition of 10gf (0.098N) under a test load and a holding time of 10 seconds by using a mini vickers hardness tester (FM-110, manufactured by FUTURE-TECH corp.). The measurement was performed at predetermined intervals in the thickness direction, 3 points were measured for each measurement position, and the average value was taken as the hardness (Hv) at that position.
In JIS6000 series aluminum alloy sheet, measurement was performed at intervals of 0.05mm in the thickness direction, and in JIS5000 series aluminum alloy sheet, measurement was performed at intervals of 0.168mm in the thickness direction.
In addition, since the resin is affected by the vickers indentation at the outermost layer, the hardness measurement is not performed.
The results are shown in tables 3 and 4. Fig. 2 to 15 show the respective hardness distributions. Table 5 shows the slope a obtained by the least square method.
< rebound quantity (formability) >)
For evaluation of formability, 5 sheets of a sheet having a rolling direction of 60mm×a width direction of 30mm were prepared, and a 90 ° bending test was performed with a bending radius r=5.0 mm. The test load was set to 20kgf (196N), 100kgf (980N), 200kgf (1961N). After the load was removed, the angle of the plate was determined by a protractor, and the difference from 90 ° was used as the rebound amount. The rebound amount was an average value of 5 sheets.
The evaluation results are shown in table 5. A case where the decrease in the rebound amount of 200kgf was 1 ° or more compared with 20kgf was regarded as excellent moldability, and was described as "evaluation: good ", on the other hand, a case of less than 1 ° was regarded as poor in moldability, and was noted as" evaluation: difference).
As is clear from table 5, when the value obtained by multiplying the slope a of the fitting linear function by the plate thickness (mm) (slope a×plate thickness (mm)) is 10 or more based on the hardness distribution shown in fig. 2 to 15, the rebound amount of 200kgf is reduced by 1 ° or more compared with 20 kgf.
The production conditions A, B, C, D, E, F, G, J, K and L are those in which the "slope A. Times. Plate thickness (mm)" is 10 or more. On the other hand, in the case where the manufacturing conditions are H and I, since the slope of the hardness distribution in the plate thickness direction is too small, the "slope a×plate thickness (mm)" becomes lower than 10, and as a result, the rebound quantity is not considered to be reduced.
