The study on new rheoforming technologies of semi-solid alloys has recently been one main subject interesting many researchers and industrials, and so many new methods about preparing semi-solid alloy slurry and rheoforming process have been suggested. Among more than 20 proposed methods, only MHD (Magneto Hydro Dynamics) and EMS (electromagnetic stirring) methods has been industrialized. In this research, the semi-solid slurry of A356 aluminum alloy was fabricated by electromagnetic stirrer under different conditions of stirring current, stirring time and pouring temperatures. Then the semi-solid slurry prepared in optimum conditions was injected into a step-die cavity by a drop device and... 

In the last decade, magnesium alloy has been developed owing to it’s low density, high specific strength, good castability and damping property. AZ91 alloy is proved to be the most common and most important magnesium casting alloy. It is shown that, rheocasting process is a proper way which increases the mechanical properties of the products. Since 28 years, so many new methods for preparing Semi-Solid alloy slurry and rheoforming process have been suggested. Electromagnetic Stirring ( EMS ) method was used for making globular structures. In this research, the semi-solid slurry of AZ91 magnesium alloy was prepared by electromagnetic stirrer under different conditions of stirring current and...
