Description

A kind of aluminum alloy semisolid remelting heating control apparatus based on infrared measurement of temperature
Technical field
The utility model relates to the metal material forming technique, relates in particular to a kind of aluminum alloy semisolid remelting heating control apparatus based on infrared measurement of temperature.
Background technology
Early 1970s, the scientist of Massachusetts Institute Technology has found that first metal is in the rheological property under the semi-solid state, and developed the semi-solid metal forming technology, this technology is between solid metallic shaping and liquid metal shaping, casting and plastic forming process advantage have been merged, have remarkable advantages such as efficient, energy-conservation, be considered to one of the most rising near-net-shape technology of 21 century.The Semi-Solid Metals Forming technology all is subjected to common concern in scientific research and industrial production in recent years, and its achievement in research has obtained in the part processing in auto industry largely and used.In the selected material of present Semi-Solid Metals Forming, (especially A356 A357) relies on its bigger solid-liquid coexistence and good forming property to alsimay, becomes the most important and common material of this technology.
The technology of Semi-Solid Metals Forming can be divided into two kinds of thixotropic forming and rheological moldings, wherein rheological molding is meant and will directly carries out semi-solid processing under the condition of its semi-solid temperature of maintenance through stirring the semi-solid metal slurry that obtains, and thixotropic forming be meant the semi solid slurry cooled and solidified become blank after, according to the product size blanking, reheat semi-solid temperature again, form processing then.The thixotropic forming technological process is long, but it is convenient to organize specialized production, and quality is convenient to control, thereby becomes the emphasis of semi-solid state forming technique research, most technologies that adopt thixotropic forming in existing research and commercial Application.
The technological process of semi-solid-state metal thixotropic forming generally comprises: semi-solid blank preparation, blank transportation cutting, remelting heating and thixotropic forming.Wherein can the control of the liquid fraction of remelting heating be the key that successfully carry out final thixotropic forming, if liquid fraction is too high, blank produces " resembling foot " phenomenon, and cause and be difficult to carrying; If instead liquid fraction is low excessively, then the required load of post forming will increase greatly, lose the advantage of semi-solid-state shaping.Be advisable when therefore, general control blank liquid fraction is for 40-50% in remelting heating process.
The liquid fraction control method of the heating of semi-solid-state metal remelting at present mainly contains: thermocouple thermometry, prong are invaded method, heat energy control method, coil-induced method, sound pressure method etc.
Thermocouple thermometry is a liquid fraction control method the most frequently used in the semi-soild-state technology experimental study, directly measures the temperature of semi-solid blank by thermocouple, and then reaches the purpose of control liquid fraction, has directly perceived, accurate, continuous advantage.The disadvantage of thermocouple thermometry is all need hole on every compact material, and internal surface of hole easy oxidation when heating reduces the inherent quality of blank, and picks and places the technological operation trouble of thermocouple on every compact material, is not suitable for high efficiency production control.Therefore, thermocouple thermometry only is fit to experimental study, is difficult to enter commercial Application.
Prong intrusion method adopts the prong of constant weight and shape to thrust the semi-solid blank surface, because prong thrusts the speed and the semi-solid liquid fraction on surface correspondence is preferably arranged, by the empirical curve that contrast obtains in advance, can reach the purpose of control blank liquid fraction.This method is directly perceived, simple, but the process of thrusting forms aperture, and the oxidation of hole inner surface reduces the blank quality, and through behind the one-shot measurement as need to measure once more and also need thrust in zones of different, brings inconvenience.
Heat energy control method is a kind of open-loop control method commonly used, and this method heats with fixing heating power, the workpiece of time for fixed dimension by empirical data, expects the liquid fraction that obtains being scheduled to fixing heat energy.This method is simple, convenient, cost is low, yet this method control precision is not high, and is very high for blank and environmental requirement thereof, and condition changing will cause the control failure, produce waste product.
Coil-induced ratio juris be metal stock by solid-state when liquid state changes, the blank conductivity will obviously descend, and can detect the variation of the depth of penetration of inducing eddy-current and then definite blank liquid fraction by induction coil.This method adapts to strong, and development potentiality is arranged, but still immature at present.Shortcoming be liquid fraction when low accuracy not high, easily produce wrong report, if blank adopts induction heating mode in addition, then can exert an influence to this method.
The operation principle of sound pressure method is that metal stock can produce a noise field in the induction heating process, and this sound field sound pressure variations when solid phase transfers liquid phase to is very strong, and sound pressure method obtains the blank liquid fraction by detecting sound pressure variations exactly.This method is still at the experimental stage, does not enter application.
From the research report of metal stock semisolid remelting heating fluid one after another control technology, can find, the heating of metal current blank semisolid remelting still lacks a kind of online monitoring method technology that is easy to commercial Application, and existing control technology is all not satisfactory for commercial Application.
The main problem that exists has:
(1) for the control of metal stock semisolid remelting heating fluid one after another, the method for open loop also is used in industry at present, but precision is relatively poor;
(2) accurately control in order to carry out closed loop for liquid fraction, often adopt the contact type measurement technology, this need punch to each workpiece, destroys surface of the work, is unfavorable for commercial Application;
(3) the non-contact temperature measuring method of semi-solid blank remelting heating is still immature, remains to further develop and improve.
Liquid fraction control for the ease of the heating of metal stock semisolid remelting, reduce production costs, for follow-up thixotropic forming technology creates conditions, and then improvement Semi-Solid Metals Forming technology, push it against commercial application, be fit in enormous quantities, low-cost and metal near-net-shape technology efficiently thereby provide a kind of, it is very necessary improving for existing semisolid remelting method for heating and controlling.

The aluminium alloy that is used for semi-solid-state shaping generally is Alar, and especially aluminium silicon magnesium is A356 and the A357 in the alloy.In the phase transition process of remelting heating, when solid rate was converted into about 60% process by about 80%, solid rate descended, and liquid fraction rises, but temperature remains unchanged substantially, was aluminium silicon binary eutectic limited proportionality.The practical significance of this section binary eutectic limited proportionality is: when the induction heater that adopts certain power carries out induction heating to blank, one section tangible flat region will appear in alloy temperature curve after entering the eutectic transformation district, and after eutectic transformation finishes, temperature will restart again to rise.When just finishing eutectic transformation, the liquid fraction of aluminum alloy blank is 40%-45%, is suitable for the liquid fraction scope of semi-solid die casting just most.
