Definitions

  • the invention is based on a machine for cooling and straightening casting components made of cast material consisting of a structure for holding cast components and a holder for a supply of cooling liquids.
  • the invention is further based on a method for treating a cast component after removal from the casting mold, wherein the cast component is immediately acted upon in a partial shower with a cooling liquid.
  • Aluminum die-cast components are increasingly used in automotive engineering. Demands are made for increasingly accurate and also large-scale die-cast components.
  • the die-cast components are subjected to various treatment techniques in the art, with one step being to direct the cast components to the specified dimensions.
  • the straightening of the cast components takes place in embossing tools, which are present in one piece or in segments. From the DE102004043401A1 is known a straightening process that works with segmented embossing tools. A variety of components is still directed by hand.
  • the straightening of the cast components is a time-consuming step that you would like to avoid in an industrial production as possible.
  • the aim is to obtain high-precision cast components from a die-casting process, which comply with the specifications without further effort, with or without a further heat treatment step.
  • the object is primarily achieved with a machine for cooling and directing cast components made of cast material consisting of a structure for holding cast components and a holder for a supply of cooling liquids, the machine having means for holding the cast component and Richtdruckzylinder installed with straightening are who press the cast component against pads.
  • the advantage of such a machine is that two operations such as cooling and straightening of cast components can be accomplished in one process step and one plant. Furthermore, it is advantageous that the straightening takes place in the hot state of the cast component.
  • the machine includes a removable Auflagerhalterung so that a simple measurement of the conditions and readjustment of the pads by removing the receiving bearing holder is possible.
  • the machine is constructed so that all the supports are mounted on one side of the cast component and all fixing and straightening punches on the other side. As a result, all printing cylinders are also mounted on one side and the entire structure of the machine is easier.
  • the method according to the invention for the treatment of a cast component after removal from the casting mold advantageously has the process step that the cast component is subjected to a straightening process while the state is still hot before the cooling liquid is applied to the cast component.
  • the cast component is directed to the final dimensions.
  • the cast component is bent over the final dimensions, since further distortion is given by further heat treatment steps and the straightening process already provides a preventive overbending of the cast component
  • At least one pointing tip is used.
  • This at least one straightening tip advantageously bends the cast component against at least one straightening support, wherein the straightening support can be adjustable.
  • the cast component is held by punch and support until it has cooled by the application of the cooling liquid.
  • casting 1 the cast component is produced by die casting or other casting.
  • the dies of the dies are first positioned by hydraulic cylinders and the die is closed by the casting machine.
  • the filling chamber The die casting plant is charged for each shot by pressurizing the liquid metal surface of the metering furnace, by means of compressed air with the required amount of metal.
  • the liquid metal is now pressed in the 'shot':
  • the piston rod of the firing cylinder of the casting machine applies pressure to the so-called pouring tablet.
  • This filling chamber for the liquid metal is connected to the mold cavities via the pouring channels and is thus kept under pressure with the liquid alloy.
  • the liquid metal passes under defined pressure and temperature conditions in the mold cavity formed with slides and cores.
  • the blank is produced for the actual die-cast article.
  • the shot cools when the mold is closed.
  • the mold opens and a robot takes the shot.
  • the cast component 10 is subjected to cooling in step 2, the cooling of the cast component in the partial shower.
  • the cast component 10 is sprayed with water or another liquid with high heat capacity in a certain period of time.
  • the cast component can also be dipped.
  • the cast component is cooled rapidly from the removal temperature from the casting tool to a temperature, in that the cast component can be supplied to further process steps.
  • a robot removes the cast component from the casting mold by engaging the cast component of the cast component and removing the cast component from the mold together with the casting tablet and integrally molded casting runs.
  • the G cordstablette with all molded components including the cast component itself is placed in a station for the partial shower.
  • the cast component is arrested over the pouring tablet in the station and sprayed there with water.
  • the robot After the cooling time, the robot removes the casting tablet and cast component from the station and deposits them in a station 3 for punching the cast component. There, in a cutting tool, the pouring tablet and pouring runs are cut off. Alternatively, the methods sawing, laser and plasma cutting can be used.
  • step 4 the heat treatment of the cast component takes place.
  • the heat treatment is not a step that must necessarily take place, but is optional.
  • the heat treatment can be a heat treatment after T5, that is to say a hot aging, or a solution heat treatment.
  • T5 a heat treatment after T5
  • solution heat treatment In the solution annealing, a standard heat treatment process for aluminum die castings, a temperature between 460 ° C and 500 ° C is set.
  • the cast component undergoes a delay after its production in the die casting tool and a possible heat treatment, so that the cast component no longer meets the specifications.
  • step 5 therefore, the straightening of the cast component takes place to the desired final dimensions, wherein the cast component is completely cooled in this process step.
  • the invention in the process of the FIG. 1b shown.
  • the main difference is that it can do without an additional process step, the straightening 5 when cold or can be reduced to a minimum for complex components.
  • the method according to the invention uses a combined method step, which takes place in the cooling phase 2 of the partial shower and comprises hot-leveling.
  • the cast component is removed from the casting tool with a robot and held on the casting tablet introduced into the station part shower.
  • the cast component is pressed in the partial shower against a support and held by the side facing away from the support with fixing punch.
  • the mounting punches are pneumatically or hydraulically extended by means of mounting punch pressure cylinders.
  • at least two fixing punches are used.
  • the mounting stamps sit flush on the cast component from both sides.
  • straightening punches are extended via straightening cylinder. They meet on the cast component, which does not sit flush on a straightening pad at this point. About the pressure of the straightening die deforms the cast component until it rests on the straightening pad.
  • the cast component is directed with respect to its dimensions.
  • the straightening process either takes place until the target dimensions are reached, or the cast component is pre-formed beyond the target size, since the subsequent heat treatment partially reverses the deformation and thus finally achieves the correct dimensions of the cast component.
  • the entire sub-shower 11 is constructed of rails 7 and welded.
  • FIG. 2 can be seen in the upper part of the station part shower the G mantablette 15, and the casting runs 16.
  • the reference numeral 10 the cast cast component is marked.
  • the pressure cylinder on the one hand serve the attachment, on the other hand, the straightening.
  • the cast component 10 would only be retained on the pouring tablet via the uppermost pressure cylinder 13. Subsequently, the cooling is carried out with water or another liquid.
  • the cast component is held over a plurality of pressure cylinders 13.
  • the impression cylinder and behind the cast component 10 are mounting pads 12 which rest flush against the cast component at the attachment points.
  • straightening cylinder 24 straightening dies 23 are extended, which bend the cast component. In this case, deflection deflections of several millimeters are possible until the cast component reaches the directional supports 14.
  • the representation in FIG. 2 shows this attachment punch 22 and directional stamp 23, wherein the connection to the individual printing cylinders is not shown.
  • the water is released via the water supply 21 and the cast component within the partial shower cooled to the final temperature.
  • the rails 17 form a support bracket 19 in the region of the support.
  • the support bracket 19 is connected by screws 20 with the rest of the structure and can be solved by him.
  • the support bracket with all mounting pads 12 and straightening pads 14 can be removed from the machine and measured on a measuring machine and adjusted.
  • the pads are optimized with tuning discs.
  • the illustrated embodiment of the machine for cooling and straightening cast components is advantageously designed so that all printing cylinders are mounted on one side of the processing station. As a result, the space required by the size of the impression cylinder can be optimized.
  • the cooling process can be started parallel to the straightening process.
