首先介绍了铝带预处理的原理、工艺特点及气垫炉的工作原理，研究了汽车板生产工艺流程中的难点和重点，指出了气垫炉的工艺位置和不可替代的重要作用；回顾了铝带气垫炉生产线的发展过程，并对其进行了阶段划分和总结；分析了铝带气垫炉的研究现状，对其关键技术进行了深入分析，提出了铝合金汽车板气垫炉技术今后在工艺、设备及控制模型方面的研究重点。随着汽车行业轻量化的快速发展，汽车用铝带气垫炉装备、生产工艺技术的研究与开发必将迎来一个新的发展阶段。

First，the process characteristics of aluminium alloy automotive sheet pre-treatment and the working principle of the air cushion furnace were introduced. The process location and irreplaceable role of air cushion furnace in the aluminium alloy automotive sheet production was pointed out after the difficulty and key point in the whole production process of the automotive sheet were studied. Then development process of air cushion furnace line of aluminum alloy sheet was reviewed ，summarized and divided to two stages. Based on the research status of the air cushion furnace，the key technology of it was analysed，and research key points on process， equipment and control models of air cushion furnace for aluminium alloy automotive sheet in future were put forward. As the rapid develop of the automotive industry，it will be certainly come that the new upsurge of the research and application of air cushion furnace for pretreatment of aluminum alloy automotive sheet.
