铝合金薄壁件真空吸铸充型能力的研究

Research on Filling Capacity of Vacuum Suction Casting for Thin-Walled Aluminum Alloy Castings

充型能力是影响真空吸铸薄壁铸件成形生产的重要因素。本研究通过铝合金薄板件的浇注试验,对比了真空吸铸和低压铸造的充型能力差异,研究了真空吸铸条件下真空度大小、充型速度及壁厚对充型能力的影响规律。结果表明:真空吸铸具有优良的充型能力,较低的型内反压是充型能力提高的主要原因;此外,真空度和充型速度的增大有助于提高反重力浇注铝合金薄壁件的充型能力,提高幅度与壁厚有密切关系。

Filling capacity is an important factor affecting the forming of vacuum suction casting thin-walled castings. The filling capacity of vacuum suction casting was compared with the low-pressure casting by pouring sheet casting of aluminum alloys. Furthermore, the effects of vacuum level, filling speed and wall thickness on filling capacity in vacuum suction casting were researched. Due to the lower counter pressure in mold, the filling capacity of vacuum suction casting is the best among the investigated casting methods. In addition, the increase of vacuum and filling speed is helpful to increase the filling capacity of antigravity aluminum alloy casting, and the increase range is closely related to the wall thickness.
