In this study an experimental spray-rolling set-up is designed in order to produce rapidly solidified Al-Fe-V-Si flat product. Al-Fe-V-Si alloys produced by rapid solidification powder metallurgy (RSP/M) methods are mostly used in high temperature applications in aerospace and automotive industries. The RSP/M technique used is spray deposition, which is desirable because of the high cooling rates achieved, as a result fine silicide dispersoids and intermetallics are observed in the microstructure which are known to contribute to the mechanical properties i.e. high strength at elevated temperatures, thermal stability, fracture toughness, corrosion resistance. Since spray deposition is a droplet consolidation process a considerable amount of porosity is expected in the final product. In this work, spray rolling process, which consists of spray deposition and subsequent hot twin-rolling stage, is designed and developed by interpreting the results obtained from SEM, XRD, tensile, three point bending and hardness tests of the specimens formed in several design stages. Two original intermetallic phases characterized in this study are V3Si and V2Mg3Al18 .
