Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of aluminum alloy manufacturing, and relates to a process for producing aluminum alloy pipes, in particular to a process for producing thin-walled aluminum alloy pipes. Background technique [0002] Aluminum alloy has the advantages of light weight, high strength, good wear resistance, and not easily deformed after processing. It is widely used in automobiles, aerospace, shipping and other fields. 6082 aluminum alloy is often used in the production of pipes. Due to its special composition and high quenching sensitivity, it is often heat treated by rapid cooling and increasing the degree of supercooling. However, when using the above method to deal with thin-walled (especially wall thickness less than 5mm, diameter greater than 150mm) 6082 aluminum alloy pipes, there are often problems such as serious pipe deformation, excessive dimensional tolerances, and substandard mechanical properties. [0003] Therefore, it is n...
