Aluminum Alloy Forging Sawing

Ensuring that aluminum alloy materials are precisely cut to the required size and shape, laying the foundation for subsequent precision machining.

Through rational sawing design, minimizing material waste, achieving economic benefits.

The surface quality after sawing directly impacts the quality of subsequent machining. Tiancheng ensures the workpiece surface is flat and smooth by selecting appropriate sawing processes and equipment, reducing postprocessing workload.

Before sawing, the aluminum alloy material needs to be prepared. Tiancheng selects the appropriate aluminum alloy material based on the design drawings and customer requirements, marking it according to the material specifications and dimensional needs. The aluminum alloy material is then fixed onto the workbench of the sawing machine to ensure that the material does not move during cutting. Before sawing, Tiancheng's technicians carefully inspect the material’s quality to ensure there are no defects such as cracks or voids.

The sawing process typically uses specialized sawing machines, such as band saws or circular saws. Tiancheng sets the operating parameters of the sawing machine according to the material characteristics, cutting requirements, and machine performance, including saw blade speed, feed rate, and cutting depth. These parameters are adjusted based on the hardness and machinability of the aluminum alloy material and the dimensions of the profile, ensuring that excessive wear or excessive heat generation does not occur during the sawing process.

The sawing machine aligns the saw blade or saw band with the aluminum alloy material and begins cutting. The saw blade rotates circumferentially and gradually enters the material to cut it into the desired dimensions. Depending on the aluminum alloy material and cutting requirements, Tiancheng selects different types of saw blades and cutting methods. For example, for thicker aluminum alloy plates, Tiancheng may opt for a lowspeed, highfeed sawing method to reduce thermal effects and material deformation. During the process, technicians monitor the sawing situation in realtime to ensure the cutting quality meets the requirements.

During the sawing process, Tiancheng closely monitors the cutting quality to ensure the straightness of the cutting lines and the accuracy of the dimensions. For aluminum alloy materials, Tiancheng adjusts the pressure and speed of the saw blade to prevent the surface of the workpiece from producing burrs, deformation, or thermal cracks due to excessive saw blade wear or excessive cutting speed. If any abnormalities are detected, technicians promptly adjust machine parameters or replace the saw blade to ensure smooth operation of the sawing process.

After sawing, the workpiece undergoes simple postprocessing, such as deburring and cleaning. These operations help remove burrs generated during the sawing process and ensure the surface is flat. The workpiece is then checked for dimensions to ensure the sawing dimensional error is within the acceptable range. Tiancheng uses precision measuring tools to inspect the cut workpieces, ensuring they meet design requirements and are ready for the next stage of processing.

For automotive components such as control arms, chassis, and body structures, these parts often need to be sawed to ensure they meet design dimensions. The sawing process efficiently cuts large aluminum alloy forgings to the required size, providing precise workpieces for subsequent machining.

Bicycle frames, seat posts, handlebars, and other components usually require sawing to cut the aluminum alloy materials into the desired shapes, preparing them for subsequent welding, machining, and surface treatment steps.

Motorcycle components such as shock absorber mounts and frames also require the sawing process for preliminary size cutting to ensure smooth processing and achieve the required precision in subsequent operations.

For industrial hardware components such as deepdrawn tubes, fasteners, and other parts, these components typically require sawing after aluminum alloy forging to adjust their shape, providing precise dimensions for further processing.
