    摘要: A semi-solid metal forming method comprising the steps of providing a thixotropic metal slug corresponding to the weight of metal to be used, heating slug to a semi-solid state until the liquid fraction gives the desired forming viscosity, transferring the slug to a pressure die-casting or forging press, and forming the slug by pressure die-casting or forging. According to the method, the viscosity of the slug is adjusted to the desired value by correspondingly adjusting the heating power by a quantity related to the resistance of the material to the forging punch or the plunger during the process of filling the forging die or the mould cavity. Said method is particularly suitable for forming thixotropic aluminium alloys.

    摘要: A metal alloy mass for semi-solid forming is disclosed. After being air-cooled to room temperature from a temperature corresponding to a liquid fraction content of 30-70 %, the mass has a pore ratio of 2-20 % and preferably 3-8 %, as measured by image analysis. A metal alloy mass for semi-solid forming, cast from a liquid metal of which the gassing level, as measured by a solidification test under 80 hPa, is such that the sample has a volume pore ratio of 3-50 % and preferably 4-25 %, is also disclosed. The method for making said mass includes treating the alloy in a liquid state to add a soluble and chemically non-reactive gas such as hydrogen. The rheological properties of the semi-solid metal may thus be improved, whereby parts having a higher quality may be obtained.
