Integration of effective heat treatment strategies into the production process of high-strength aluminum screws (T07#)

该项目将专注于将“沉淀工程”，包括在固溶退火条件下的成形和随后的时效处理，整合到铝螺钉的生产过程中。它旨在开发一种新的加工策略，利用沉淀工程可以实现的材料时效时间的缩短和强度的提高。不均匀和反向变形对沉淀动力学的影响将与EJOT GmbH & Co. KG合作进行研究，从单一处理步骤的简化实验开始，到过程链上的复杂变化。

This project will focus on the integration of “precipitation engineering”, which includes forming in the solution annealed condition and a subsequent aging treatment, into the production process of aluminium screws. It aims on the development of a new processing strategy, which enables to make use of the shortened aging time and increased strength of the material, which can be achieved by precipitation engineering. The effect of an inhomogeneus and reversed deformation on the precipitation kinetics will be investigated in cooperation with the EJOT GmbH & Co. KG, starting with simplified experiments on single processing steps and leading to complex variations on the process chain.
