In this paper, solidification characteristics in roll strip cast aluminum alloys is described. Al-Mg-Si alloy was melted in a crucible and poured to stainless steel roller. The roll was connected to a driving motor which the rotation speed can vary from 10 rpm to 100 rpm. During this process, the melt was solidified to form a strip. A specimen of 50mm was cut from the cast strips. The strip was characterized for the thickness, hardness and microstructure. Variation in hardness, microstructure of the produced trip is explained as a comparison to normal casting.Read More
