A process for manufacturing an aluminum alloy wheel includes: casting, de-flashing, soaking, spinning, thermal treatment, de-gating, X-ray and machining. During the casting, a casting mold is cooled with water, and a cast blank is produced from carrying out the casting. The de-flashing includes removing flashes of the cast blank at a rim of the cast blank with a de-flashing device. The soaking includes reheating on the cast blank that has been de-flashed. The spinning includes an adaptive spinning mold. The thermal treatment includes direct solution treatment and aging on the cast blank in a thermal treatment furnace after spinning.

Process for manufacturing aluminum alloy wheel

The present disclosure discloses a method for forming a rim of a cast-spun aluminum alloy hub, that is, a special spinning composite machining method for forming a structure that the spokes and the inner wheel flange of the hub are cast and the middle of the rim is spun. The method can prevent the performance, strength and as-cast structure of the inner wheel flange from being destroyed, effectively improve the impact resistance of the cast-spun hub at the inner wheel flange, prevent the inner wheel flange of the cast-spun hub from cracking during radial impact and improve the performance of the spun structure of the rim, is beneficial to thinning the rim and realizes light weight of the rim.
