Application of shortened heat treatment cycles on A356 automotive brake calipers with respective globular and dendritic microstructures

Author: Moller, H ; Govender, G ; Stumpf, WE Date: Sep 2010 The conventional casting alloy A356 is probably one of the most popular alloys used for semi-solid metal (SSM) forming. This is due to its high fluidity and good castability. This alloy can be heat treated alternatively to the T4, T5 or T6 ... Read more
Effects of laser bending on the microstructural constituents

Author: Tshabalala, Lerato C ; Pityana, Sisa L ; Mbaya, R Date: 2012 This article will illustrate the correlation between microstructural and microhardness changes in high-strength-low-alloy steel that occur as a result of laser-bending. Laser bending is a process of bending metal shapes using the laser beam ... Read more
Industrial heat treatment of R-HPDC A356 automotive brake callipers

Author: Chauke, L ; Moller, H ; Curle, UA ; Govender, S Date: Oct 2012 Heat treatment of rheo-high pressure die cast (R-HPDC) A356 brake callipers has produced good mechanical properties on the laboratory scale. An industrial heat treatment is required to evaluate the applicability and conformance of the R-HPDC ... Read more
