In a method for the treatment of metallic materials especially for the consolidation of the texture of the materials, a blank of the metallic material is heated to a transformation temperature and the blank is then subjected to twisting preferably while, at the same time, being compressed. In this way, the texture can be refined to a large degree in a simple and inexpensive manner.

Method for the treatment of metallic materials

In a device for encapsulating blanks of metallic high temperature alloys, particularly TiAL alloys, which are subjected to forging or rolling for hot forming, at least a first inner envelope is supported on the blank in closely spaced relationship therefrom and a second envelope surrounds the first envelope and both envelopes consist of a metallic material.
