Abstract

Abstract In this study, aluminum Al6013 and copper (Cu) cylindrical bimetal was manufactured by means of an original production method. The optical microscope and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of the bimetal material produced through this approach, semi-centrifugal compression, were used in microstructural investigations following which metallurgical transition zones were defined. Through an energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis of the defined regions, the chemical content of the regions were determined. Micro hardness values of the regions were determined and comparisons were made with the chemical content and hardness values of the materials used in the bimetal production before the manufacturing process. In addition, the mechanical properties of the materials were compared by applying tensile tests to the bimetallic components Cu and Al6013 and to the bimetal material produced. In the light of the values obtained, the general properties of the bimetal material produced through this new approach were presented.
