2024 aluminum plate is needed for heat treatment, heat treatment has quenching, annealing and tempering, today 2024 aluminum plate manufacturers want to introduce to you, 2024 aluminum plate tempering process.
At the temperature required for 2024 aluminum plates (approximately 980°F), the magnesium and silicon are completely dissolved in aluminum.The extruded portion is cooled by air and then precipitates, which does not affect strength or hardness. To avoid this, most 2024 aluminum plates are water quenched before leaving the mold.This heating and rapid cooling system is called solution heat treatment.
After quenching, the alloy element forms a new crystal structure in the 2024 aluminum sheet, increasing strength and hardness in a process called "estimation."It takes a few days at natural temperatures, but it's accelerated by heat.
2024 aluminum plate tempering process is introduced to this, if you want to consult the price of 2024 aluminum plate can contact us.
