In our study, the base material was the aluminium alloy of Al8006. Its application area covers amongst others the material for multilayer tubes. This alloy has been subjected to different technological paths consisting heat treatments (homogenization) and mechanical strengthening technologies: multiple forging, equal channel angular pressing. The aim of the technological paths was to refine the primary phase structure, and to look for the technology sequence that assures the highest strength and the highest toughness at the same time. To determine this, a complex performance index has been created that integrates these property characteristics.
