The paper presents the results of investigation into the possibility of employing the forging process to produce aluminium-clad magnesium products. The purpose of the investigation was to develop and implement the technology of Mg/Al bimetal feedstock screw press forging and to compare the corrosion resistance of the product with that of an identical product made of a magnesium alloy. The feedstock was round 22.5 mm-diameter and 160 mm-length Mg/Al bars that had been produced using the explosive welding method. As an example product, a door handle used in helicopter production was selected. For comparison purposes, the door handle was also forged of magnesium alloy AZ31. After the forging process, the both products were subjected to corrosion resistance testing. From the obtained results it was found that the forging of the assumed quality could be made in the process of forging on the screw press, and that the use of the aluminium cladding layer only slightly increased the mass of the finished products, while substantially improving its corrosion resistance.

The paper has presented the results of theoretical studies and experimental tests of the plastic deformation of Mg/Al bimetallic specimens. Theoretical studies were carried out using the Forge2011® computer program. Physical modeling, on the other hand, was performed using the Gleeble3800 simulator. Bimetallic bars of an outer diameter of 22.5 mm and a cladding layer thickness of 1.7 mm were obtained by the explosive welding method. Samples for formability tests, characterized by a diameter-to-length ratio of 1, were taken from the bars. The theoretical studies and experimental tests were carried out for the temperature range from 300 to 400°C and for different strain rates. Based on the obtained investigation results it has been found that the main parameters influencing the formability of Mg/Al bimetallic bars are strain rate than the process temperature.

The paper presents the results of the production of semi-finished products in the form of magnesium-aluminium round bimetallic bars by the explosive cladding method. The system of samples consisted of an aluminium tube (1050 grade) and magnesium bar (grade AZ31) was prepared. The analysis of microstructure, mocrohardness and mechanical tests of the joint quality was carried out. On the basis of obtained results it was found that the explosive cladding parameters used to obtain the semi-finished bimetallic product characterized by a slight ovality and uniform distribution of the cladding layer on the core perimeter.
