Abstract
Abstract The local laser heat treatment of precipitation hardenable aluminum alloys enables the tailoring of the materials properties and the manufacturing of lightweight and crash-proof components for the body in white. For conventional aluminum sheet metals and profiles the formability is enhanced by an indirect approach. Thereby specific parts of the products are softened in order to improve the material flow towards crack critical areas during the forming operation. For innovative high-strength aluminum sheet metal with nanocrystalline grain structure produced in the Accumulative Roll Bonding process in addition to the indirect approach a direct enhancement of the formability by recrystallization effects is possible.
