Summary:Suitable pressure levels and heat treatment of casting wrought aluminum alloy are key process parameters in making components with better metallurgical properties. For this purpose, the effect of applied pressure and aging treatment on the microstructure and the mechanical properties of an industrial 2017 aluminum alloy manufactured by gravity and direct squeeze casting processes are investigated in this paper. After treating to various aging states, the correlation between these parameters and the characteristics of the cast alloy has been analyzed and discussed.
