Abstract:
A method for vacuum smelting and variable pressure solidification forming aluminum alloy piece with ultra-thin wall and high gas tightness is provided, in which an induction heating furnace is set in a vacuum tank, a quartz crucible with thickness of 5˜8 mm is used; a preheated aluminum alloy ingot is placed in the crucible, side doors of the tank is closed, and a vacuuming processing is performed for the tank; the melt is filled from the bottom layer of the casting; when the melt reaches to the top, the main valve and the air-release valve are turned on until the inside and outside pressures are consistent, and then the casting is taken out. The requirement of high air tightness for vacuum tank is reduced, and aluminum alloy casting with high quality can be obtained at lower cost.
