Problems solved by technology

The organic movement pollutes the environment a lot, which will damage the health of the workers. At the same time, the increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements further lead to an increase in investment in environmental protection equipment.
Although the inorganic movement can effectively reduce the pollution to the environment, there are still great difficulties in the domestic inorganic movement technology from the stable mass production.
The core technology of inorganic movement is in the hands of developed countries in Europe and the United States, and the import of corresponding equipment requires a lot of investment, which will increase the production cost of aluminum alloy cavity castings and make the products lose competitiveness

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of an aluminum alloy casting with cavity filled with foamed aluminum. The preparation method comprises the following steps of providing formed foamed aluminum with soldering flux on the surface; fixing the formed foamed aluminum with the soldering flux on the surface in a mold; and casting through using a molten aluminum alloy. According to the preparation method of the foamed aluminum filled aluminum alloy cavity casting, the foamed aluminum is used for replacing a traditional sand core, so that higher strength is obtained while lightweight requirements are met, procedures of sand vibrating, shakeout, sand blowing, sand recovering and the like are further omitted, and the production efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of aluminum alloy casting, and in particular relates to a method for preparing an aluminum alloy cavity casting filled with foamed aluminum. Background technique [0002] Since the 21st century, under the background of economic globalization and technological progress, the world's automobile industry, especially my country's automobile industry, has entered a period of rapid development. However, the large scale of automobile production and consumption has brought severe energy security. The situation and the huge pressure of environmental protection determine that the automobile industry must take the road of developing new energy vehicles and realizing the lightweight of vehicles. [0003] At present, the more practical automobile lightweight is mainly achieved through three methods, namely, material lightweight, structural lightweight and manufacturing process lightweight. Aluminum alloy materials are widely used i...
