Optimization of Thermo-Mechanical Processes of Continuous Casting Products Using High Magnesium Aluminum Alloys in Automotive Industry Applications
Abstract
5XXX series alloys are preferred in the automotive industry due to its high strength and formability. 5XXX series aluminum alloys, which are difficult to produce under the scope of our work, are sustainable and suitable for high quality expectations of automotive sector; The conditions of continuous casting, which enable efficient production, have been determined and the thermo-mechanical processes required by the final products have been developed. 5754 aluminum alloy sheets, which have many applications in the automotive sector, come to the fore and increase their usage areas every day due to its high strength, weldability and deep formability properties. In the analysis of the study, industrial scale production and laboratory prototype studies were evaluated comparatively for each production stage. In the context of these evaluations, microstructure analysis and thermo-mechanical properties were investigated in detail. In addition, due to the high visual expectation of the automotive sector, surface properties at every stage of production were analyzed by measurable methods. © 2020, The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society.
