Description of Aluminum Extrusion Services
Aluminum extrusion is the process of forming the aluminum into the desired shape and geometry. Firstly, the mold is fabricated according to the drawing. And then extrude different types of custom aluminum extrusion profiles from the mold by heating and forcing the aluminum billet through the die.
Aluminum extrusions are known for their great strength, light weight and good conductivity, which make them an outstanding choice for diverse end-use applications (e.g. enclosures and heat sinks). It is the most cost effective for high volume production runs of metal parts due to significantly low unit price.
Advantages of Aluminum Extrusion
Part Production
Piece price is significantly lower with standard aluminium extrusions versus other metal forming process.
Strength
Fabricated aluminium extrusions are very strong, making them suitable for cold weather applications that require high strength. Aluminum extrusions also have high rust and corrosion resistance.
Finishes Selection
Aluminum extrusions can be anodized, powder coated, polished, and etc.
Precision
We can conform to very tight tolerances base on customers requirements.
Aluminum Extrusion Process
After we receive your order, we will:
Step 1: Supply a complete cross-sectional drawing for you after review and discuss about your CAD files.
Step 2: Fabricate dies and extrude a sample to get your approval.
Step 3: Make the modification on the die if needed.
Step 4: Exercise process control when extruding your parts.
Step 5: Select from a variety of finishes processing to achieve the effect you want.
Step 6: Inspect finished extruded parts to avoid any dimension deviation.
Aluminum Extrusion Tolerance
The tolerance depends on shape and structure. If you need a very precise tolerance, we can follow it once we confirm your designs.
Aluminum Extrusion Material
Alloy: 6060, 6063, 6061, 6082, 2A12, 2024, 5052, 7075 and etc. (Others Available)
Aluminum Extrusion Finishes
Electrophoresis
After applying electrophoresis, you can get a glossy surface with excellent impact resistance. The electrophoresis layer improves the resistance to chipping, scratching, and fading.
