The carbon fiber reinforced aluminum matrix(Cf/Al)composite was successfully prepared by the brazing method through the box type resistance furnace and the vacuum hot pressing furnace. The influence of the composition of the filler metal,the pressure state and the pressure method on the forming of the Cf/Al composite was studied,and the microstructure of the composites was analyzed. The results show that the good Cf/Al composites can be prepared by using the resistance furnace and the vacuum hot pressing furnace with the laminated HL402 filler metal and heated to 600 ℃ for 15 min under pressure. The Cf/Al composite prepared by a vacuum hot pressing furnace has a distance of Cf about 2,4, μm,and the solder can be fully filled into the gap of Cf,and the contour of the Cf is complete and is more uniform and compact in the binding layer.
