Problems solved by technology

[0002] 6063T5 and T6 aluminum alloys are widely used in the field of building doors, windows, and curtain walls because of their low-to-medium strength, good elongation, corrosion resistance, and easy processing. Moreover, their production processes are relatively mature, and they can occupy an important position in aluminum profile enterprises. The production ratio is more than 80%, but it is rarely used in industrial profiles because of its low strength
This design improves the mechanical properties of aluminum alloy profiles, and realizes the synchronous improvement of its elongation and strength. However, this invention not only needs to install a water mist cooling device, but also the cost of raw materials is about 200-400 yuan / ton higher. The cost of water and electricity is 100-200 yuan / ton higher

Abstract

The invention discloses a modified 6063T6 aluminum alloy and a processing method thereof. The total weight of the aluminum alloy is improved, and the modified aluminum alloy is prepared from the following chemical components: 0.45-0.50% of Si, 0.65-0.70% of Mg, 0.02-0.10% of Cu, less than or equal to 0.23% of Fe, less than 0.10% of Mn, less than 0.10% of Cr, less than 0.01% of Zn, less than 0.1% of Ti, and the balance Al. The modified 6063T6 aluminum alloy has high strength, high hardness and high elongation, has the mechanical property reaching 6061T6 standard, and can replace 6061T6 aluminumalloy, thereby reducing the production cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of aluminum alloy processing, in particular to a 6063T6 improved aluminum alloy and a processing method thereof. Background technique [0002] 6063T5 and T6 aluminum alloys are widely used in the field of building doors, windows, and curtain walls because of their low-to-medium strength, good elongation, corrosion resistance, and easy processing. Moreover, their production processes are relatively mature, and they can occupy an important position in aluminum profile enterprises. The production ratio is more than 80%, but it is rarely used in industrial profiles because of its low strength. Therefore, customers of industrial profiles generally choose 6061T6 or 6082T6 alloys with higher strength, but the production cost and processing cost of 6061 aluminum alloy are higher than that of 6063 aluminum alloy. Therefore, how to make 6063 alloy profiles meet the mechanical performance standards of 6061 alloy profiles is a b...
