Abstract Flat rolled Al alloys manufactured using the Direct Chill (DC) casting process are used in safety critical applications and therefore need to be of the highest possible quality. The presence of inclusions and pores can be damaging to the mechanical properties, so the liquid metal is cleaned using a mixture of inert Ar and reactive Cl gases before casting. These gases are bubbled up through the molten metal and remove inclusions, (such as oxides), by agglomeration and floatation, and dissolved H, (that is responsible for porosity within in the casting), by diffusion and floatation of the gas out of the melt. This project is comprised of three sections, with the central theme aimed at better understanding the formation and control of inclusions and porosity in DC cast and hot rolled Al alloys. The first section explores the aetiology of defects in DC cast and hot rolled Al plate, found using ultrasound. Inclusions extracted from 7050 alloy plate, (typically 2.3% Cu, 2.5% Mg, 6.2% Zn, 0.12% Zr), were extracted and examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The inclusions were composed of two phases. A second type of defect found in thin gauge, (<45 mm), 7475 alloy plate, (typically 1.5% Cu, 2.3% Mg, 6.7% Zn, 0.21% Cr), was established to be a coarse grain structure, caused by excessive widening of large cross section ingots during hot rolling. The second section aimed to provide a better understanding of the role of Cl on degassing. Ar and Ar and Cl containing gas bubbles were trapped in solidifying Al alloys. Gases were extracted using a mass spectrometer and the composition was established to be a mixture of H2, N2 and H2O. The metal-gas interface was then examined using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The effects of Cl on the degassing performance of a Spinning Nozzle Inert Floatation (SNIF) degassing unit were then approached statistically using ALSCAN. While different 7xxx alloys appeared to be influenced by Cl differently, with average improvement or reduction in degassing efficiency ranging from +8 to -5%, the degassing of 7xxx alloys was, on the whole, not significantly affected by the presence of Cl. Finally, 20 kg melts of Al and Al alloys were doped with H and subsequently degassed, and the reduction in H over time was measured using ALSPEKH, over a range of 0.35 ml/100g to 0.15 ml/100g. The degassing rate of a 7010 alloy (typically 1.7% Cu, 2.3% Mg, 5.2% Zn, 0.13% Zr) appeared to be reduced the most when Cl was present, compared to 5083 alloy, (typically 4.5% Mg, 0.7% Mn, 0.15 Cr), and pure Al. In the third section the LECO H determination device was used to degas Al specimens to very low levels, (<0.005 ppm H), in order to simulate the H absorption into double oxide film defects. Such defects have been proposed to act as reservoirs into which H can diffuse and promote the formation of H gas porosity. Degassed specimens were melted under air or N2 atmosphere, so that when cracks formed in the surface oxide layer either Al2O3 or AlN formed. After subsequent exposure to pure H2 gas the specimens that formed AlN were found to have absorbed more H than those heated in air, because the AlN was porous compared to fully dense alumina. The research and work presented within therefore provides a better understanding of: the formation of specific defects in wrought Al alloy plate, the influence of Cl on the degassing of Al alloys, and the process of diffusion of H into double oxide film defects as they react with the surrounding melt.

  • Machining Accuracy of Machine Tools
    Technical Information Machining Accuracy of Machine Tools Productivity and accuracy of machine tools are important competition aspects. Rapidly changing operating conditions for machine tools, however, make it diffi cult to increase productivity and accuracy. In the manufacture of parts, increasingly small batch sizes have to be produced economically, and yet accurately. In the aerospace industry, maximum cutting capacity is needed for the roughing processes, whereas the subsequent fi nishing processes must be executed with maximum precision. For milling high-quality molds, high material removal rates are required during roughing and excellent surface quality must be obtained after fi nishing. At the same time, maximum contouring feed rates are necessary to realize the required minimum distances between the paths within acceptable machining times. Thermal accuracy of machine tools is becoming increasingly important considering the strongly varying operating conditions in manufacturing. Especially with small production batches that require constantly changing machining tasks, a thermally stable condition cannot be reached. At the same time, the accuracy of the fi rst workpiece is becoming very important for the profi tability of production orders. Constant changes between drilling, roughing and fi nishing operations contribute to the fl uctuations in the thermal condition of a machine tool. During the roughing operations, the milling rates increase to values above 80 %, whereas values below 10 % are reached during fi nishing operations. The increasingly high accelerations and feed rates cause heating of the recirculating ball screw in linear feed drives. Position measurement in the feed drives therefore plays a central role in stabilizing the thermal behavior of machine tools.

  • Ats 34 and 154 Cm Stainless Heat Treat Procedure
    ATS 34 AND 154 CM STAINLESS HEAT TREAT PROCEDURE This is an oil hardening grade of steel which will require oil quenching. The oil should be a warm, thin quenching oil that contains a safe flash point. Olive oil has been used as a sub­ stitute. As a rule of thumb, there should be a gallon of oil for each pound of steel. For , warming the oil before quenching, you may heat a piece of steel and drop it in the oil. 1.) Wrap blades in stainless tool wrap and leave an extra two inches on each end of the package. (This will be for handling purposes going into the quench as described below.) We suggest a double wrap for this grade. The edges of the foil should be double crimped, being careful to avoid hav­ ing even a pin hole in the wrap. 2 . ) Place in the furnace and heat to 1900"F. After reaching this temperature, immediately start timing the soak time of 25-30 minutes. 3.) After the soak time has elapsed, very quickly and carefully pull the package out with tongs~ place over the quench tank and snip the end of the package allowing the blades to drop into the oil. You should have a wire basket in the quench tank for raising and lowering the blades rather than have them lie s till. Gases are released in the quench and would form a "trap" around the steel unless you keep them movi~g for a minute or so. *IMPORTANT--It is very important that the blades enter the oil quench as quickly as possible after leaving the furnace ! Full hardness would not be reached if this step is not followed.

  • A Comparison of Thixocasting and Rheocasting
    A Comparison of Thixocasting and Rheocasting Stephen P. Midson The Midson Group, Inc. Denver, Colorado USA Andrew Jackson Arthur Jackson & Co., Ltd. Brighouse UK Abstract The first semi-solid casting process to be commercialized was thixocasting, where a pre-cast billet is re-heated to the semi-solid solid casting temperature. Advantages of thixocasting include the production of high quality components, while the main disadvantage is the higher cost associated with the production of the pre-cast billets. Commercial pressures have driven casters to examine a different approach to semi-solid casting, where the semi-solid slurry is generated directly from the liquid adjacent to a die casting machine. These processes are collectively referred to as rheocasting, and there are currently at least 15 rheocasting processes either in commercial production or under development around the world. This paper will describe technical aspects of both thixocasting and rheocasting, comparing the procedures used to generate the globular, semi-solid slurry. Two rheocasting processes will be examined in detail, one involved in the production of high integrity properties, while the other is focusing on reducing the porosity content of conventional die castings. Key Words Semi-solid casting, thixocasting, rheocasting, aluminum alloys 22 / 1 Introduction Semi-solid casting is a modified die casting process that reduces or eliminates the porosity present in most die castings [1] . Rather than using liquid metal as the feed material, semi-solid processing uses a higher viscosity feed material that is partially solid and partially liquid. The high viscosity of the semi-solid metal, along with the use of controlled die filling conditions, ensures that the semi-solid metal fills the die in a non-turbulent manner so that harmful gas porosity can be essentially eliminated.

This is typically done in power systems by twisting or weaving the wires, following one of several patterns. Though, at radio frequencies, wire dimensions must scale down by as much as 1000 times in order to achieve the same effects. This project decomposes the problem into two main categories; the manufacturing of micron scale wires and the manipulation of these wires in order to form a twisted bundle.
