Abstract
Conventional aluminum processing involves continuous casting, hot and cold metal forming and optional heat treatment. Modern processes aim to shorten the cycle of manufacturing and consist of cold metal forming after continuous casting. A well-known example of such solutions is the twin-roll casting and cold rolling of aluminum sheets. For these reasons an analysis of the impact of cold deformation on structure and properties of materials after continuous casting and analysis of its quality becomes an important research topic. The paper shows the results of laboratory aluminum continuous casting. The effects of inoculants micro-additions which modify the structure of casts and its effect on the macroscopic properties of the material were examined. This paper also shows the results of laboratory tests of material cold rolling after continuous casting. The mechanical properties of material as a function of cold deformation evolution and a number of utility properties of finished sheets were examined.
