- US 2010/0089503 A1 also discloses 6xxx-series aluminum alloy forging stock material.
- aluminium alloy and temper designations refer to the Aluminium Association designations in Aluminum Standards and Data and the Registration Records, as published by the Aluminium Association in 2016 and are well known to the persons skilled in the art.
- the temper designations are laid down in European standard EN515.
- up to 0.25% Zn may include an alloy having no Zn.
- the term "about" when used to describe a compositional range or amount of an alloying addition means that the actual amount of the alloying addition may vary from the nominal intended amount due to factors such as standard processing variations as understood by those skilled in the art.

- the use of hot-rolled feedstock allows for the production of much wider forged products compared to the use of extruded feedstock material.
- the manufacturing of rolled feedstock is a robust production process enabling a more cost efficient production of high-volume forging feedstock compared to an extrusion process requiring dedicated extrusion dies and wherein only billets of limited dimensions can be processed.
- rolled feedstock provides a more homogeneous microstructure in the product and avoids the occurrence of so-called profile hot-spots which may frequently occur in an extrusion process due to for example non-equilibrium melting of eutectic phases as a result of temperature fluctuations across the profile in the extrusion process.
- substantially unrecrystallized microstructure we mean that more than 85%, preferably more than 90%, and more preferably more than 95%, of microstructure across the thickness of the hot-rolled rolled product is substantially unrecrystallized.
- the purposive addition of Mg and Si strengthens the aluminium alloy due to precipitation hardening of elemental Si and Mg 2 Si formed under the co-presence of Mg.

- the Fe-content in the aluminium alloy product should not exceed about 0.5%, and preferably it should not exceed about 0.35%, in order to maintain the balance of properties.
- a too high Fe-content has an adverse effect on the toughness and ductility of the final product.
- a more preferred upper-limit for the Fe content is 0.30%.
- a lower Fe-content is favourable for the ductility of the alloy product.
- a lower limit for the Fe-content is about 0.1%, and more preferably about 0.15%.
- a too low Fe content makes the aluminium alloy product too expensive.
- the Zr addition is preferably in a range of 0.05% to 0.20%.
- a preferred lower limit for the Zr-content is 0.06%.
- a preferred upper-limit for the Zr-content is about 0.16%.
- the Cr-content should be in a range of 0.06% to 0.18%.
- a preferred upper-limit for the Cr-content is about 0.14%, preferably about 0.12%, and more preferably 0.09%.
- each of the alloying elements Cr and Zr are in the range as herein described and the sum of the combined addition of Zr+Cr does not exceed 0.30%, and preferably it does not exceed 0.25%.
- the combined addition of Zr and Cr is most efficient in suppressing grain growth and controlling the grain size in the final forged product.
- Zinc is an impurity element that can be tolerated up to about 0.25%, preferably up to 0.10%, and is more preferably as low as possible, e.g. 0.05% or less.
- Titanium can be added to the aluminium alloy product amongst others for grain refiner purposes during casting of the alloy ingots.
- the addition of Ti should not exceed about 0.15%, and preferably it should not exceed 0.1%.
- a preferred lower limit for the Ti addition is 0.01 %, and typically a preferred upper-limit for Ti is 0.05%, and can be added as a sole element or, as known in the art, with boron or carbon serving as a casting aid, for grain size control.
- Unavoidable impurities can be present each up to about 0.05% and the total is up to about 0.20%, the balance is made with aluminium.
- the aluminium alloy product has a composition consisting of, in wt.%, Si 0.65% - 1.4%, Mg 0.60% - 0.95%, Mn 0.40% - 0.80%, Cu 0.12% - 0.28%, Fe up to 0.5%, Cr up to 0.18%, Zr up to 0.20%, Ti up to 0.15%, Zn up to 0.25%, impurities each ⁇ 0.05%, total ⁇ 0.2%, balance aluminium, and with preferred narrower ranges as herein described and as claimed.
- the careful balance of alloying composition and providing a substantially unrecrystalized microstructure in the hot-rolled condition allows for the production of forged products having a good balance in strength and ductility.
- the use of hot-rolled feedstock allows for the production of much wider forged products compared to the use of extruded feedstock material.
- the manufacturing of rolled feedstock is a robust production process enabling a more cost efficient production of high-volume forging feedstock compared to an extrusion process requiring dedicated extrusion dies and wherein only billets of limited dimensions can be processed.
- rolled feedstock provides a more homogeneous microstructure in the product and avoids the occurrence of so-called profile hot-spots which may frequently occur in an extrusion process due to for example non-equilibrium melting of eutectic phases as a result of temperature fluctuations across the profile in the extrusion process.
- the aluminium alloy can be provided as an ingot or slab for fabrication into a hot-rolled feedstock using casting techniques regular in the art for cast products, e.g. DC-casting, EMC-casting, EMS-casting, and preferably having an ingot thickness in a range of about 220 mm or more, e.g. 300 mm or 350 mm.
- thin gauge slabs resulting from continuous casting e.g. belt casters or roll casters, also may be used, and having a thickness of up to about 40 mm.
- Grain refiners such as those containing titanium and boron, or titanium and carbon, may also be used as is known in the art.
- the as-cast ingot is commonly scalped to remove segregation zones near the cast surface of the ingot.
- Homogenisation should be performed at a temperature of 460°C or more. If the homogenisation temperature is less than 460°C, reduction of ingot segregation and homogenisation may be insufficient. This results in insufficient dissolution of Mg 2 Si components which contribute to strength, whereby formability may be decreased.
- Homogenisation is preferably performed at a temperature of 480°C or more. The homogenisation temperature should not exceed 570°C, and preferably it does not exceed 560°C. More preferably the homogenisation is performed in a temperature range of 480°C to 520°C.
- the soaking times for homogenisation should be at least about 2 hours, and more preferably at least about 4 hours.
- a preferred upper-limit for the homogenisation soaking time is about 24 hours, and more preferably 15 hours.
- the cast ingot is homogenised at the temperature and soaking times as herein set out and then quenched to below 100°C using water quench system to ensure a high level of dissolution of constituent particles, and subsequently re-heating to hot mill entry temperature.
- the ingot is being hot-rolled in one or more rolling steps to a final gauge in a range of 2 mm to 30 mm, preferably 2 mm to 20 mm, and more preferably of 2 mm to 15 mm.
- the method according to this invention avoids the need for further down-gauging via cold rolling.
- the hot-rolling process is carefully controlled such that the hot-mill exit-temperature is in a range of 200°C to 360°C, and preferably in a range of 230°C to 280°C, to ensure that the hot-rolled feedstock has a substantially unrecrystallized microstructure.
- a hot-mill exit temperature in this temperature ranges supresses the coarse precipitation of secondary phases such as Si and Mg 2 Si and AIMgCu-phases and thereby enabling a balance of high strength and good ductility in the final forged product.
- the grain size in the final forged product is too coarse, e.g. an average grain size of more than 90 micron.
- the hot-mill entry-temperature is in a range of 400°C to 550°C, and preferably in a range of 435°C to 535°C and more preferably below 500°C, in order to reach the desired hot-mill exit-temperature.
- the feedstock can be coiled or cut-to-length.
- the forging feedstock material at final gauge can be processed into a desired shaped product via a hot-shaping process, in particular into an automotive vehicle structural part, using the following processing steps:
- the hot-formed or forged product is subjected to a solution heat-treatment (SHT), preferably at a temperature of about 460°C to 560°C, preferably about 500°C to 560°C, for 20 minutes to 8 hours, preferably 20 minutes to 2 hours, and quenched to below 70°C, prior to artificially ageing which would bring said product after ageing to a T6X condition by applying one or more ageing steps, and wherein at least one of the ageing steps consists of holding the hot-formed shaped product at a temperature between 150°C and 210°C for a period of 0.5 hours to 15 hours. For example 8 hours at 175°C or 10 hours at 160°C.
- SHT solution heat-treatment
- the invention intends to encompass several alternative production routes for manufacturing forged products using the hot-rolled feedstock material, e.g. non-limitative production routes comprising at least the following sequential processing steps:
- a forged structural member made from the hot-rolled semi-finished 6xxx-series aluminium alloy forging stock or obtained by the method of manufacturing forged products using such hot-rolled 6xxx-series forging stock, and having a substantially recrystallized microstructure.
- substantially recrystallized microstructure we mean that more than 90%, preferably more than 95%, and more preferably more than 97%, of microstructure across the thickness of the forged product is substantially recrystallized.
- the forged product in T6x-condition has an equivalent bending angle in the LT-direction of 60° or more, preferably of 70° or more, and more preferably of 80° or more, when measured at 2 mm sheet material in accordance with VDA 238-100 of December 2010.
- the bending angle is an indication for the ductility of forged material, whereby a higher bending angle indicates a higher ductility.
- a high ductility as engineering parameter is desired for applications of the forged product where it should be resistant to impact at high velocity, in particular in crash situations of the vehicle.
