Forming characteristics of cast magnesium alloy sheets manufactured by roll strip casting process

Plastic formability of cast magnesium alloy that were hot rolled after roll strip casting was investigated to ascertain the feasibility of semi-solid strip casting process of AD I B magnesium alloy. Hot rolling and heat treatment conditions were changed to examine which conditions were appropriate for producing AD I B wrought magnesium alloys after strip casting process. Microscopic observation of the crystals. of the manufactured wrought magnesium alloys was performed. It has been found that a limiting drawing ratio of 2.7 was possible in a warm deep drawing test of the cast magnesium alloy sheets after being hot rolled.
