Abstract

The linear electromagnetic stirring process used for the production of aluminium alloy thixotropic billets is described. The influence of the stirring conditions on the structure and rheology of an alloy similar to 319 is presented. Finally, the main characteristics of the SMM process, their impact on the properties of the parts and the major fields of application in the automobile industry are discussed.
