| 20110061771 | PROCESS FOR HEAT-TREATING AND COATING A COMPONENT AND COMPONENT PRODUCED BY THE PROCESS - A process for heat-treating and coating a component, comprising the following steps: solution-annealing of the component and subsequent coating of the component which is heated to a temperature which is so high that it is thereby possible to carry out both heat treatment in order to set the material properties of the solution-annealed component and also the coating. An AlSi10MgMn aluminum alloy is preferably used. The solution-annealing takes place at 400-500° C. over the course of 5-120 minutes, and the age-hardening and coating take place at 150-300° C. over the course of 30-60 minutes. The coating may be carried out as cathodic or anodic dip painting. | 03-17-2011 |
