High-strength Al alloys of the 7xxx series are promising candidates for further light-weighting of car bodies. However, they are difficult to process by extrusion: complex geometries in particular pose a major challenge due to high extrusion pressures and tool wear. In addition to process optimization, alloy chemistries can be tailored for properties such as good extrudability or high strength. In this work, several experimental alloys based on EN AW 7108A were investigated with respect to the contents of the main alloying elements Zn and Mg, as well as heat treatment (e.g., homogenization), to achieve good extrudability and favourable mechanical properties. The experimental alloys were initially extruded on a small-scale extrusion press and evaluated with regards to their warm formability, microstructure, extrudability, and mechanical properties in T5 temper.
