Excellence in Aerospace and Defence Heat Treatment
Aluminum is widely used in the aircraft, aerospace and defence industries due to its lightweight and high strength mechanical capabilities.
The heat treatment of aluminum alloys requires precise control of the time-temperature profile, tight temperature uniformity and compliance with industry-wide specifications so as to achieve repeatable results and produce a high-quality, functional product.
The most widely used specification for treating aluminum is AMS2770 (Heat Treatment of Wrought Aluminum Alloy Parts) which details heat-treatment processes such as aging, annealing and solution heat treating in addition to parameters such as times, temperatures and quenchants.
These specifications also provide information on necessary documentation for lot traceability and the quality-assurance provisions needed to ensure that a dependable product is produced.
