摘要

This study investigates the die-casting process of lens brackets using semi-solid 6061 aluminum alloy slurry prepared by radial forging and partial remelting, including the slurry flow behavior and microstructure evolution. Firstly, the semi-solid 6061 aluminum alloy slurry was obtained through multi-pass radial forging and isothermal heating. Subsequently, numerical simulations were employed to analyze the distribution of flow-induced shear stress and die-casting pressure during mold filling, identifying the locations where crack and tearing defects formed. Under process parameters: slurry temperature is 645 °C, mold temperature is 200 °C, injection speed is 0.5 m/s, complete lens bracket components were successfully produced with maximum dimensional errors below 0.18 mm. Finally, the relationship between slurry flow behavior and microstructure evolution was examined. The results demonstrate that flow-induced shear stress effectively breaks the intergranular bridges, dispersing the coalesced grains and thereby achieving grain refinement.
