Aluminum Metallurgy
There are a wide variety of wrought aluminum alloys, each developed to provide specific properties. Getting the strength participants need in an aluminum alloy requires knowledge of the effects of alloy composition, cold-working, and heat treating on aluminum metallurgy and properties. A good understanding of how aluminum alloys behave and what can be done to modify their properties is critical for being more productive and profitable. The course takes about one hour to complete and consists of one module and a final exam. Also, quizzes and problems provide participants opportunities to apply the concepts taught.
What Will You Learn
- Select the most appropriate alloy and heat treating process for application
- Evaluate suppliers
- Develop manufacturing processes
- Solve quality problems
