Abstract
In this work, the fabrication processes of particulate metal matrix composites (PMMCs) with a homogeneous distribution of reinforcement and their reheating for thixoforming were studied. Electromagnetic stirring was used to fabricate PMMCs to vary particle size. PMMCs were tested before and after the reheating process using a tensile test with and without heat treatment. The combined process conditions for fabricating the PMMCs are also suggested for a variety of particle sizes. For the thixoforming of PMMCs, fabricated billets are reheated by using an induction heating system with a maximum capacity of 20 kW. The effects of the dispersion state of the reinforcements on the reheating temperature and microstructural morphology were investigated.
