A Study on the Development for the Vehicle Engine Mountion Bracket Using Squeeze Casting

스퀴즈 캐스팅 제조법에 의한 자동차 엔진 마운틴 브래킷 개발에 관한 연구

Alumium alloys casting are gaining increased acceptance in the automotive and electronic industeries and squeeze casting is the most efficient method of manufacturing such mass produced parts. This study has been investigated the microstructures and mechanical properties of Al-7.0Si-0.4Mg(AC4C)alloy fabricated by squeeze casting process for development of Engine Mountain Bracket. The microstructure of squeeze casted specimen were composed of eutectic structure Alumimim solid solution and $Mg_2Si$ precipitates. The tensile strength of as-solid solution treatment Al-7.0Si-0.4Mg alloy revealed 2985MPa. It was found that Al-7.0Si-0.4Mg alloy have good aging hardening effect results are presented to show the validity of the control method.
