Cleaning process for aluminum alloy die castings with a particle size <200 μm


In the production process of aluminum alloy die castings, fine particulate impurities, such as alumina, that may be present in the material can affect the performance of the die castings. These particles may form stress concentration points inside the die castings, affecting the mechanical properties and service life of the material. Therefore, cleaning particles smaller than 200 micrometers is an important step in improving product quality and reliability.
Below is a description of the cleaning process for aluminum alloy die castings with particle sizes less than 200 micrometers:
1. Pretreatment: Before cleaning, the die castings need to undergo appropriate pretreatment, such as removing surface oil stains and release agents. This is usually achieved through hot water cleaning or chemical cleaning.
2. Ultrasonic cleaning: Use ultrasonic cleaning equipment to clean in a cleaning solvent at a moderate temperature, such as deionized water or a special cleaning agent. The high-frequency vibration of ultrasound can help remove tiny particles from the inner and outer surfaces of the die castings.
3. Spray cleaning: High-pressure water flow can help remove dirt from the die castings. In the spray cleaning process, the cleaning solution and the surface of the die casting produce a scouring effect, which helps to remove particles.
4. Immersion cleaning: For some die castings with complex shapes or difficult to clean by spraying, immersion cleaning can be used. Use an appropriate cleaning solution and let the die castings soak in the liquid for a period of time to allow the cleaning solution to penetrate to the location of the particles, dissolving or loosening them.
5. Cleaning solution selection: Choosing the right cleaning solution is crucial for cleaning effectiveness. The cleaning solution usually needs to have good solubility, effectively remove particles, and be harmless to aluminum alloy materials.
6. Drying: After cleaning, the moisture on the die castings needs to be completely removed. This can be achieved through air drying, baking, etc. The drying process is crucial for ensuring the quality of subsequent processes.
7. Inspection: The cleaned die castings should be subjected to particle size inspection to ensure that the cleaning effect meets the quality requirements.
Throughout the cleaning process, strict control of the cleaning process is also required, such as CleaningTemperature, cleaning time, and cleaning solution replacement, to ensure the cleaning effect. At the same time, cleaning and maintenance of cleaning equipment are also key to ensuring the stability and reliability of the cleaning process.
