Technical process related to aluminum profile processing and manufacturing

Update time : 2022-08-30 11:40:40

Different types of metals can respond to manufacturing methods in different ways, and a process that works for aluminum profile manufacturing may not necessarily work for other metals, such as stainless steel. This is why it is essential to be familiar with the technologies associated with the manufacture of aluminium profiles before starting trials.

Metal fabrication techniques have made it possible for a wide variety of industries to use aluminum in their products. Whether it is a car, solar panel, building structure or spacecraft, it needs to go through the relevant manufacturing process to make aluminum parts meet their requirements. Fortunately, aluminum has many properties that make it an ideal choice; over the past century, many technologies have been developed to make aluminum machining easier and more cost-effective to manufacture.

Metal fabrication

Metal fabrication is the process of making metal parts by cutting, bending, and shaping materials. In industry, various metalworking fabrication methods are used to create parts and structures for machinery, products and even artwork. Typical forms of manufacture include welding, cutting, forming and machining. Examples include tools, loose parts (such as nuts and screws), structural frames, handrails, pipes, auto parts, etc. Today, manufacturing processes using various metals can be done manually and automatically.

Aluminum profile processing and manufacturing

Because of its unique properties, making aluminum is very different from using other metals. Aluminum's light weight is common sense, which can be an advantage, but at other times it can be a disadvantage. For example, since aluminum is not as strong as stainless steel, manufacturers often find aluminum easier to work with. Aluminum is about one-third the weight of stainless steel. Although it has lower mechanical properties, it generally has a higher strength-to-weight ratio.

As you probably already know, aluminum also has some peculiar problems with soldering. It's easy to make a "burn through" mistake when soldering aluminum because aluminum is characterized by higher thermal conductivity and a lower melting point than many other metals. In addition, when the aluminum welding wire is thrown in during the welding process, it is easy to get tangled. This is because aluminum wire is softer than steel, thus reducing column strength.
