Abstract
Studies of Advanced Technologies Used in the Manufacture of Products from Aluminium Alloys The test stands already put in operation and still under development, installed in the Light Metals Division Skawina of the Institute of Non-Ferrous Metals in Gliwice are described. The presentation includes 5MN horizontal direct-indirect extrusion press, 2,5MN vertical forging press, "MeltechConfex MC-260" device for continuous rotary extrusion process, "Melt-Spinning" plant for casting of thin strips, melting-casting plant for Mg alloy billets, heat treatment line, and new testing equipment, including Instron 5582 100 kN and Instron 600DX 600 kN testing machines with attachments for tests carried out at low and high temperatures, automatic hardness tester for HB, HV and HRC hardness measurements, portable X-ray diffractometer for measurement of internal stresses, optical emission spectrometer with channels for the analysis of aluminium and magnesium alloys, STEM 200kV transmission electron microscope, and apparatus for hydrogen content measurement in the solid state. Based on the experimental potential and apparatus available, present research opportunities were discussed and modern trends in the advanced technology of Al and Mg alloys fabrication were outlined.
