Aluminum Channel Extrusion Profile Machined Aluminium Extrusion Profiles for Industry

Aluminum Extrusion Design:

With over 60 years of experience, we have developed strong problem-solving abilities. By working with a large number of industries we have learned what’s important to each of them and have developed methods to suit their custom aluminum extrusion needs.

Quick industry examples
The lighting industry reflectors require a smooth surface finish and possibly specific alloy selection; heat sinks for the electronic industry may require high tongue ratios to maximize heat dissipation; tight aluminum extrusion tolerances are often required for profile assemblies or to align with non-extrusion end caps or fittings. Each industry has unique requirements and we have the varied experience to work with them.

Aluminum extrusions are just the beginning of what we do. We can supply a host of services from design assistance to customized packaging to make your aluminum extrusion experience smooth!

Multiple profile solutions

A Customer came to us with a brand new project consisting of 16 unique aluminum extrusions for assembly. In the process of learning more about the project and understanding the needs of the Customer, the proposed profiles were reviewed and the package was redesigned to five profiles. Aluminum extrusion tooling costs were reduced as well as time and money for part installation.

Machined parts
Customers have come to us with parts that have traditionally been heavily machined. Inquiring about the end use and Customer goals has lead to near-net shapes incorporating design/assembly features reducing machining costs downstream. Aluminum extrusions can be extensively customized to maximize your investment.

Technical Aluminum Extrusion Info:
Aluminum extrusions can be so varied in design that the only way to really determine profile capability is to show us your design. We have extruded some pretty incredible shapes – many of them have been “exceptions” to the guidelines listed below.

Specifiaction of Profile:

Aluminum Profile Features:

Corrosion resistance

The density of aluminum profile is only 2.7g/cm3, about 1 / 3 of that of steel, copper or brass (7.83g/cm3 and 8.93g/cm3 respectively). Aluminum exhibits excellent corrosion resistance under most environmental conditions, including in air, water (or brine), petrochemicals, and many chemical systems.

Conductivity

Aluminum profile is often selected because of its excellent conductivity. On the basis of equal weight, the conductivity of aluminum is nearly 1 / 2 of that of copper.

Thermal conductivity

The thermal conductivity of aluminum alloy is about 50-60% of that of copper, which is beneficial to the manufacture of heat exchangers, evaporators, heating appliances, cooking utensils, cylinder heads and radiators of automobiles.

Non ferromagnetism

Aluminum profiles are non ferromagnetic, which is an important feature for the electrical and electronic industries. Aluminum profiles are not self ignited, which is important for applications involving handling or contacting flammable and explosive materials.

Processability

The machinability of aluminum profile is excellent. In all kinds of wrought and cast aluminum alloys, as well as in the various states after the production of these alloys, the machining characteristics change greatly, which requires special machine tools or technologies.

Formability

Specific tensile strength, yield strength, ductility and corresponding work hardening rate control the variation of allowable deformation.

Recyclability

Aluminum is highly recyclable, and the properties of recycled aluminum are almost the same as that of primary aluminum.
