Essai provide complete manufacturing solutions for aluminum extrusion products, including surface finishing, machining, cutting, and assembly.
The aluminum extrusion shape can be customized according to drawing specification, also can be cut into different length. The extrusion tool could be finish within 10 days for tight schedule project. The extrusion profile could making different surface treatment, such as sandblasting, anodizing, electrophoresis, polishing, power coating, PVD Fcoating, wood transfer, etc. We have the certificates including IS014004:2015 & GB-T19001-2016-1S0.
1. Aluminum profile is light but strong
Aluminum is more than 33% lighter than steel, while retaining most of its strength. The influence range of tensile strength of most studied aluminum alloys is generally about 70-700 MPa, and the density is two thirds lower than that of steel. Product design engineers do not need to worry about the strength of aluminum extrusion parts, as structural parts in the construction industry and the automotive industry, is an alternative to other metal materials.
2. Aluminum extrusion has good thermal. Aluminum is a thermal conductor, and the profile of the aluminum profile increases the heat transfer surface area and the hot channel.
3. Aluminum extrusion is easy for surface treatment
Extruded aluminum can be painted, plated, polished, and anodized, giving engineers a wider range of surface finishing options than other materials.
4. Aluminum extrusion type is easy to secondary processing
Aluminum profiles can be easily formed, cut, drilled, machined, stamped, bent and welded to suit specific applications.
5. Absorb high pressure and deformation in construction,
Aluminum profiles are resistant to deformation caused by weather and construction movements. In transport vehicles, culture shock energy can be absorbed. Aluminum profiles maintain strength and flexibility under load and impact rebound.
6. Environmental protection
Aluminum is an environmentally friendly material that is easy to recycle.
The basic principle of aluminum extrusion involves heating a solid aluminum billet and forcing it through a die, resulting in a continuous profile with a consistent cross-section. The process utilizes high pressure to push the billet through the die and shape it into the desired form.
The extrusion process for aluminum differs from that of other materials due to aluminum's unique properties. Aluminum has a low melting point, making it easier to heat and extrude. Additionally, aluminum has high thermal conductivity, allowing for efficient heat transfer during the extrusion process. Unlike other materials, aluminum extrusion can also be performed at room temperature, depending on the complexity of the profile.
Aluminum extrusion has a wide range of applications across various industries. Some primary applications include the manufacturing of architectural structures, such as windows, doors, and curtain walls. It is also commonly used in the production of automotive parts, electrical conduits, heat sinks, and aerospace components. The flexibility of aluminum extrusion allows for customized profiles to meet specific product requirements.
There are several challenges associated with aluminum extrusion. One significant challenge is the formation of defects during the extrusion process, such as cracks, surface imperfections, or dimensional inaccuracies. These challenges require careful control of various process parameters, including billet temperature, extrusion speed, and die design. Additionally, maintaining consistent mechanical properties throughout the extruded profile can be a challenge.
The choice of alloy greatly impacts the extrusion process of aluminum. Each aluminum alloy has unique characteristics that affect its extrudability, such as its composition, temper, and grain structure. Some alloys may require different extrusion temperatures or pressures to achieve the desired profile. The mechanical properties of the final extruded product can also vary depending on the alloy selected.
