Abstract

Language:

Compound casting is a process in which a single component is made from two metallic materials, such as aluminum and steel. Solid-liquid bimetallic compounds can be produced by suitable process control. This technology can reduce the number of joining processes, and the specific properties of the respective metal component can be used for specifically designed product properties, for example, where lightweight and high strength are needed. This paper presents an experimental methodology for producing a purely material-bonded bimetallic joint from cast aluminum and zinc-coated sheet steel in 3D sand casting using an inductive heating system. The process-related temperature characterisation in the compound zone is described using a heating test rig and temperature measurements. It shows that inductive preheating can only produce a material bond between the aluminum casting and the coated steel sheet. Shear tensile tests showed strengths between 15 MPa and 22 MPa. Laser surface pre-treatment using laser ablation cutting on the coated steel sheet was carried out to investigate the benefit of possible microform-locking. The results show a st.
