Abstract
The appropriate application of heat treatments results in structural changes in alloys, and such changes enable the improvement of strength, hardness, ductility and other mechanical characteristics. This paper is mainly aimed at studying and analysing the influence of the quenching temperature and of the ageing holding time on the hardness of 6xxx series aluminium alloys. The thermal processes and parameters involved in the heat treatment of this alloy are studied, such as quenching and ageing, and the manner in which these treatments influence the properties of the resulting materials will be investigated.
