How Do You Guarantee Your Aluminum Reaches Its Ultimate Stress?
You design a critical component based on the ultimate stress listed on a datasheet. Yet, the part fails under load, well below that theoretical number, leading to costly failures and safety concerns. To guarantee aluminum reaches its ultimate stress, you must use a material with a flawless internal structure. Forging eliminates the microscopic voids and […]
How Do You Ensure Aluminum is Safe Enough for an Aircraft?
Your design specifies a high-strength aluminum alloy1 for a critical aerospace part. But a hidden flaw inside the material could lead to catastrophic failure, jeopardizing safety and your reputation. To ensure aluminum is aircraft-safe, you must verify its internal structure. The forging process is critical because it eliminates the microscopic voids where fatigue cracks begin, […]
Beyond Cans and Foil: What Are Aluminum’s True Industrial Uses?
You think of aluminum for packaging and kitchen foil. This common view overlooks its real strength, causing engineers to miss lightweight, durable solutions for critical structural parts. Aluminum’s primary industrial use is for high-performance structural applications where its strength-to-weight ratio1 is critical. This includes aerospace frames, automotive components, marine structures, and industrial machinery parts that […]
