The invention discloses a process for manufacturing an aluminum alloy ingot, which is characterized by including the steps of a, proportioning raw materials according to the proportion of each element of the product, b, placing proportioned raw materials into a smelting furnace for smelting, c, sampling and assaying, and adding silicon metal according to the results of assay, d, adding a cooling material to reduce the temperature of an aluminum liquid, e, stirring for uniform composition, f, sampling and assaying, and adding aluminum strontium alloy, aluminum titanium boron alloy and nontoxic refining agent according to the results of assay, g, purification, refining and deaeration, h, still standing for 15 min to 25 min, i, drossing slags onto a slag car, j, sampling and assaying, and supplementing or diluting in case of incompliance with standard requirements on composition, k, filtering for improved cleanliness of the aluminum liquid, and l, casting a portable ingot. Ingots cast from the process have less cold laps and cracks, and are characterized by high tenacity and strength.
