    摘要: An extrusion and bonding tool for carrying out a hybrid metal extrusion and bonding process, the tool being for extruding an extrusion material and bonding the extrusion material to a substrate is provided. The tool may comprise a main body and a rotating die through which the extrusion material is extruded, wherein the rotating die moves relative to the main body of the tool, and wherein the extrusion material, in use, is extruded through the rotating die at a position that can vary about a circumferential path about a rotation axis of the tool. The tool may comprise an extrusion chamber; and a plurality of dies through which the extrusion material is extruded associated with the extrusion chamber, wherein the tool is arranged so that, in use, the extrusion material is received in the extrusion chamber and plasticised within the extrusion chamber before being extruded through one of the dies onto the substrate.

    摘要: A solid-state method of bonding an extruded bead of metal material (4) onto the surface of a metal substrate (6) is provided. The method comprises deforming the surface of the substrate; extruding extrusion material to form extrudate; and depositing the extrudate on the surface of the substrate to form a bead of material on the substrate which is bonded to the substrate. A solid-state method of joining two metal components (30, 31) is also provided. The method comprises: extruding metal extrusion material to form extrudate (32); depositing extrudate between the two components such that it contacts each of the components to form an initial joint between the components; deforming a surface of the initial joint; and depositing further extrudate (38) on the initial joint between the two components.

    摘要: An aluminium extrusion material for use in a hybrid metal extrusion and bonding process is provided. The composition of the extrusion material comprises: 0 to 0.25 wt % iron; at least 0.05 wt % dispersoid-forming elements, wherein the dispersoid-forming elements comprise 0 to 1.2 wt % manganese, 0 to 0.25 wt % chromium, 0 to 0.25 wt % zirconium and 0 to 0.25 wt % scandium; and, except when the aluminium alloy of the aluminium extrusion material is in the 2xxx series, 0 to 0.05 wt % copper. The microstructure of the extrusion material is a deformed microstructure; and the nanostructure of the extrusion material comprises an aluminium matrix with dislocations and dispersoids, and wherein the majority of the alloying elements are in solid solution in the aluminium matrix. An aluminium rod for manufacturing the extrusion material, a joint comprising a extrudate made from the extrusion material a method of manufacturing the extrusion material and the aluminium rod and a method of joining two aluminium components using the extrusion material are also provided.
