Thermomechanical Processing

Thermomechanical processing (TMP) is a manufacturing technique that combines controlled heating and mechanical deformation—such as rolling, forging, or pressing—to shape and refine metal materials. By carefully managing temperature and deformation, TMP enhances the metal's microstructure, resulting in improved strength, ductility, and toughness. This process allows manufacturers to produce high-quality metals and alloys suited for demanding applications, such as aerospace, automotive, and construction industries. Essentially, TMP optimizes the properties of metals through precise thermal and mechanical treatments, leading to better performance and durability of the final product.
