Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the heat treatment of structural castings from a Aluminum alloy and an aluminum alloy to be used for it.
  • Aluminum structural castings made from an aluminum alloy are used, for example, in motor vehicle construction and are said to have good mechanical properties, in particular high elongation at break, good castability, no tendency to stick in the mold, and good demoldability, high structural strength and good weldability. Since the required properties of the known cast aluminum alloys do not exist in the as-cast state, heat treatment processes and aluminum alloys have been developed in order to meet industrial requirements more precisely and more cost-effectively. Special heat treatment processes known as T64 and T7 have become known for this. These heat treatment processes are described, for example, in "The Technician's Handbook" Böge, Vieweg, 13th edition, pages 551 to 554.
  • T64 thermalally unstable
  • 1st stage Warm to 480-520 ° C, hold for 2-5 hours, quench in water at 20 ° C
  • 2nd stage Warm to 155-170 ° C, hold for 2-6 hours, quench in air.
  • T7 thermalally stable up to 230 ° C: 1st stage Warm to 480-520 ° C, hold for 2-5 hours, quench in water at 20 ° C; 2nd stage Warm to 200 to 230 ° C, hold for 2 to 3 hours, quench in air.
  • the invention is therefore based on the problem of a heat treatment process create with which good mechanical properties and high dimensional accuracy can be achieved inexpensively and with simple means.
  • US-A-4 786 340 describes a similar heat treatment, but without the application of the structural casting on a contour-engaging product holder and only with a view to achieving the desired mechanical properties as quickly as possible of aluminum castings.
  • the temperature at 490 ° C. can preferably be maintained for about 60 minutes and keeping at the temperature of 250 ° C for about 30 minutes.
  • the temperature is kept at 490 ° C during about 90 minutes, can be kept at the temperature of 250 ° C during about 30 minutes or about 45 minutes or about 75 minutes or about 105 minutes take place, which changes the mechanical properties depending on the range of requirements vary.
  • the cast structural castings are made on special contour-taking product shots applied and subjected to the aforementioned heat treatment steps.
  • the heat treatment process T7 a minimum time of also takes 4 hours and a maximum time of 8 hours
  • the method according to the invention for a maximum of 3.25 hours, but can in the most favorable case up to 1.5 hours can be shortened.
  • the method according to the invention thus generally results better economy due to the shorter cycle time.
  • thermal stability due to the temperature increase in the second stage approx. 30 ° C compared to the T7 heat treatment process and approx. 80 ° C compared to the Heat treatment process T64 improved so that the after the invention Process of heat-treated structural castings up to operating temperatures of 250 ° C are thermally stable.
  • the aluminum alloys of the invention for use with the invention Processes allow very thin-walled, large-area and complex structural castings produce their dimensional stability and dimensional stability by the invention Heat treatment process is guaranteed. Accordingly, that offer The inventive method and the alloy used with the designer great freedom of design. With the inventive method and with it Aluminum alloys used can be of constant quality in one Series production, high ductility, good weldability and thus the possibility ensure the connection with sheets or extruded profiles.
