Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Aluminiumlegierung auf Basis AlCuMg mit guter Spanbarkeit.The invention relates to an aluminum alloy based on AlCuMg with good Machinability.

Als Automatenwerkstoffe geeignete Knetlegierungen auf Basis AlCuMg enthalten als spanbrechenden Zusatz Blei. Gemäss EN 573:1994 werden diese Legierungen mit EN AW-AlCu4PbMgMn (EN AW-2007) und EN AW-AlCu4PbMg (EN AW-2030) bezeichnet.Contain wrought alloys based on AlCuMg as machine materials as a chip breaking additive lead. According to EN 573: 1994 these are Alloys with EN AW-AlCu4PbMgMn (EN AW-2007) and EN AW-AlCu4PbMg (EN AW-2030).

Wegen der gesundheitsschädlichen Wirkung von Blei ist man gegenwärtig bemüht, dessen Anwendung in der Industrie auf ein Minimum zu beschränken. Hinzu kommt, dass die Anwesenheit von Blei in einer Aluminium-Knetlegierung bei üblichen Temperaturen zu einer Erhöhung der Rissanfälligkeit unter Dauerbelastung führt.Because of the harmful effects of lead, efforts are currently being made to limit its application in industry to a minimum. In addition, the presence of lead in a wrought aluminum alloy at normal temperatures to an increase in susceptibility to cracking under permanent load leads.
