The common state and use of 6061 aluminum sheet
6061 aluminum sheet has the characteristics of high strength, corrosion resistance and good anti oxidation effect. It is widely used in automation machinery parts, precision machining, automobile chassis, cake mold and so on. It is widely used by the majority of users. 6061 aluminum sheets are widely used after heat treatment. 6061 aluminum alloy thick sheets should be used for automatic mechanical parts and precision machining. All kinds of moulds are made.6061 aluminum sheets T6, F, O three states.
The T6 state is most used for 6061 aluminum alloy, and the 6061 T6 aluminum sheet is quenched through medium sheet, medium sheet slicing, stretching machine, aging treatment – saw – polishing – packing. The whole prodsuction cycle is about 10 days. After solid solution heat treatment, it can be straightened and leveled without cold working, but the mechanical properties are not affected.
F state is the free working state of 6061 aluminum alloy, which is suitable for special prodsucts in the forming process for working hardening and heat treatment conditions. F state prodsuction cycle is very short: sheet slice – saws – polishing (also can not be polished, according to customer requirements) – packaging, the whole process is arranged smoothly for 3 days, F state mechanical properties do not do specifications, customers according to their own needs can be F state of heat treatment processing, prodsuction into the required state of use. The relative price is also the cheapest
O state is the lowest strength processed prodsuct of 6061 aluminum alloy after complete annealing. Suitable for 6061 aluminum alloy less than 8 of the sheet, its prodsuction process: cold rolled prodsuct thickness stretching bending correction – complete annealing – flying shear slice (or pull bending straightening finished prodsuct) – packaging into a series of prodsuction, the prodsuction cycle is second to the state of T6
Application of 6061 alloy aluminum sheet in automobile chassis
The chassis is the main frame of the bottom of the vehicle. The power parts of all vehicles, including engines, axles, gearboxes, differential and suspension systems, are mounted on the chassis.
Automobile lightweight has the following advantages:
1. light weight. All aluminum is more than 100kg of traditional steel, at least light. Lift power, fuel economy, control.
2. corrosion resistance. The durability is higher than that of steel.
3.it is safer. The energy of aluminum is 2 times as high as that of the ordinary steel.
