Abstract
This study was conducted to evaluate the potential use of currently available 2091 and 8090 alloys as forging material. Three different product forms have been studied : - Precision die forgings such as window frames, fittings... - Conventional die forgings such as wheels, tubes... - Thick hand forgings (thickness up to 150 mm).
