Abstract

Aluminium alloys are most extensively used Non-ferrous materials in aircraft and automobile industries. Among the aluminium alloys 6000 series are mostly suitable one by virtue its versability is heat treatment and extrusion capabilities. In the present study the influence of various alloying elements in Al 6061 is undertaken keeping in view the mechanical and metallurgical aspects. Experiments are carried by taguchi philosophy of design experiments. L8 orthogonal array is adapted in selection of compositions of alloying elements for casting specimens and testing is carried to study the mechanical and micro structural properties.
