Aluminum and copper alloys are widely used in many industries due to their properties such as lightness, corrosion resistance, and high electrical conductivity. However, heat treatment processes are applied to improve the mechanical properties of these metals and to optimize factors such as hardness, strength, and machinability. Heat treatment increases the service life of aluminum and copper alloys while enabling them to reach ideal performance levels for specific applications.
Aluminum alloys are used in many fields ranging from the aviation industry to automotive, from defense to construction. By applying heat treatment, their mechanical properties such as hardness, strength, and formability can be improved.
Copper alloys are preferred in applications that require high electrical and thermal conductivity, good corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength. Heat treatment is used to improve the hardness, formability, and machinability of copper.
Through heat treatment processes, aluminum and copper alloys can become more durable, machinable, and long-lasting. Especially in the aerospace, automotive, electronics, and construction industries, applying appropriate heat treatment methods enhances material performance, thereby improving production quality and efficiency. With advancing technology, more precise and controlled heat treatment applications will continue to expand the use of these metals across various industries.
