Welcome to our web site!

This site was created to educate you on the properties and applications of aluminum 6013. The purpose of this project is to identify, research, and perform manufacturing steps/processes involved in the production of a final product. The processes we address in this project are casting, welding, heat treatment, and machining. We also perform tensile, hardness, and microhardness tests and do a microstructural characterization to learn about the properties of aluminum 6013 and to see how these properties are affected by the processes that we performed on the alloy. Lastly, we explore the application of the 6013 aluminum alloy in the aerospace industry, namely for fuselage panels.
