Aluminum Heat Treatment
Process applied to aluminum alloys to increase their strength, hardness, tensile strength, and impact resistance.This process consists of three main steps:
- Solution Heat Treatment
This step involves heating the aluminum alloy to a specified temperature to allow the intermetallic phases (compounds) to dissolve into the aluminum matrix. -
Quenching
This involves rapidly cooling the aluminum alloy, typically with water or oil, to suppress the formation of the intermetallic compounds and retain a supersaturated solid solution. -
Artificial-Aging
This step involves heating the aluminum alloy to a specific temperature for a set period. This allows the dissolved intermetallic compounds to re-form and precipitate throughout the microstructure, creating a stronger and more hardened network.Furnace Qty Solution Furnace 4 [Furnaces]Aging Furnace 4 [Furnaces] Batch Size 600[kg] Batch Dimesion 600[mm] x 600[mm] x 1200[mm] Frequently Treat Material ADC12, ADC10 AC4CH
