Non-ferrous alloys treatments

ALUMINIUM HEAT

TREATMENTS

Solubilization and artificial aging (T6): This group includes products which are not cold-worked after the thermal solubilization treatment and for which mechanical properties or dimensional stability, or both, are greatly improved by thermal precipitation treatment.

 

 

Solubilization and natural aging (T4); This group includes products not cold-worked after the thermal treatment of solubilization and for which the mechanical properties have been stabilized by aging at room temperature.

 

Solubilization and partial Aging (T64); This group includes products that undergo a heat treatment of solubilization and partial aging to improve cold formability.

Artificial aging on aluminium (T5); This group includes products not cold-worked after the hot forming process as casting or extrusion and for which the mechanical properties are greatly improved thanks to the thermal precipitation treatment.Our facilities are also able to carry out annealing, recrystallization annealing, quenching, tempering and stress relieving on workpieces made by copper alloys for moulding or casting, also thanks to the aid of inert atmospheres furnaces.

BRASS

HEAT TREATMENTS

Dezincification annealing: Used to improve corrosion resistance by reducing the amount of residual beta phase in monophasic brass alloys. This treatment is generally performed on fittings for drinking water networks after hot forging. 

 

Stress relieving: Thermal cycle which has the purpose of conferring dimensional stability for subsequent mechanical processing.

MARKING

Often the parts with application in the automotive field require a very accurate traceability, for this reason the details are marked with certain codes that define the lot and processing. Thanks to our marking machine we have the possibility to quickly mark the pieces before or after the heat treatment ensuring maximum traceability of the details.

METALLOGRAPHIC

LABORATORY

Our laboratory has some of the most advanced materials analysis technologies. We are able to carry out hardness tests and micrographic analyses on different types of material, depth analysis of carburizing, residual ß phase analysis on brass and fracture analysis.
