More and more stringent requirements concerning mechanical and technological properties, which are imposed on materials used to castings of heavy duty machinery components extort implementation of modern selection methods of alloying additives (synthesis of alloys), modifying agents and heat treatment. Obtainment of optimal results, i.e. improvement of mechanical properties of processed alloy as well as its economic aspect are connected with selection of a suitable temperatures and durations of solution heat treatment and ageing operations. In the paper is present an effect of modification and heat treatment processes on KCV impact strength of the EN AC-46000 alloy. Investigated alloy underwent typical treatments of refining and modification, and next heat treatment. Temperatures’ range for heat treatment operations was evaluated with used of the ATD method. Obtained results concern registered curves of melting and solidification with use of the ATD method and the impact strength. On base of performed tests one has determined a range of heat treatment parameters which create conditions to suitable impact strength of the EN AC-46000 alloy.
