Abstract: The present invention provides a method for forming an aluminum alloy thin-walled curved part by ultra-low temperature gradient drawing. This method includes: placing the aluminum alloy sheet on a die, and closing a blank holder to hold the aluminum alloy sheet in a flange zone; filling a cavity of a die with an ultra-low temperature medium to cool a die cavity zone of the aluminum alloy sheet to a set low temperature, and forming an ultra-low temperature gradient in which the temperature of the die cavity zone is lower than the temperature in the flange zone; applying a set blank holder force to the blank holder, and controlling a punch to move downwards to form a deep-cavity thin-walled curved part; and controlling the punch to move upwards, opening the blank holder, and taking out the formed deep-cavity thin-walled curved part.

Abstract: Provided is a performance controlling method for a high-strength aluminum alloy shell during an ultra-low temperature forming process. The present disclosure greatly improves the performance of an aluminum alloy sheet by applying an ultra-low temperature. The present disclosure cools the aluminum alloy sheet to an ultra-low temperature by using an ultra-low temperature cooling medium, so as to compensate for insufficient hardening caused by insufficient deformation and avoid cracking caused by increased deformation. The present disclosure cools the sheet blank zonally according to a deformation law of a desired curved part, and controls the ultra-low temperature distribution of the sheet blank during forming so as to promote the formation of a substructure in a small-deformation zone. In this way, the present disclosure improves a subsequent age-hardening effect, and corresponding uniformity of microstructure and performance, and effectively solves the problem of non-uniformity due to uneven deformation.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for ultra-low temperature forming an ultra-thin curved part of a high-strength aluminum alloy. The method includes the following steps: step 1: selecting a cladding with a suitable thickness according to a wrinkle limit of a sheet; step 2: stacking the sheet and the cladding, then putting into a die, and closing a blank holder; step 3: filling a cavity of a female die with an ultra-low temperature medium to cool the sheet to below −160° C.; step 4: applying a set blank holding force by the blank holder, and enabling a male die to go down to form a thin-walled curved part; and step 5: opening the die and taking out the formed thin-walled curved part. The present invention utilizes the favorable formability of the high-strength aluminum alloy at the ultra-low temperature and the instability resistance of the thick sheet.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for pressure forming of an aluminum alloy special-shaped tubular component by using an ultra-low temperature medium. By means of the characteristics that the forming property of an aluminum alloy tube is greatly improved under ultra-low temperature conditions, a tube is cooled and pressurized in a die through an ultra-low temperature medium, so that the tube forms a special-shaped tubular component at an ultra-low temperature. In the method for pressure forming of an aluminum alloy special-shaped tubular component by using an ultra-low temperature medium, the ultra-low temperature medium is not only used for cooling the die and the tube, but also used for pressurization to achieve flexible loading of the tube, which is favorable for forming complex special-shaped tubular components with varied cross-sections.

Abstract: The present invention provides a die capable of achieving rapid forming and quenching therein. The die includes an upper die, a blank holder and a lower die, where the upper die is composed of an internal solid die core and a thin-walled skin. Grooves in communication with each other are disposed between the internal solid die core and the thin-walled skin. In a forming stage, the grooves are not filled or filled with a heat insulating material such as a gas; and in a quenching stage, a low-temperature medium is introduced into the grooves. The die can be used to achieve rapid forming and quenching of metal materials of different types and thicknesses.
