There are many knowledge about aluminum profiles, so I won’t introduce them one by one today. However, when we understand aluminum profiles, we must pay attention to many details. After understanding from many sources, the editor summarizes the following points. So, what are the application characteristics of aluminum profiles? Let’s get to know it together.

First of all, from the perspective of the application range of aluminum profiles, aluminum profiles have the advantages of one-time extrusion molding, higher mechanical and physical properties, good thermal conductivity, and higher specific strength. Suitable for machine frames, brackets, doors, industrial automation equipment, workbenches in factories and offices, shelves, containers, ladders, etc. The aluminum profile should almost include all the industrial industries, and the application range can not be said to be wide!

Secondly, from the perspective of the use of aluminum profiles, aluminum profiles are easy to construct, modular and multifunctional. Without complicated design and processing, you can quickly construct an ideal mechanical equipment coat, using aluminum profile accessories, such as corner pieces. , Bolts and nuts can be assembled and formed. The connection method of aluminum profile is not only bolt and nut connection, but also punching and tapping. According to different application structures, different connection methods can be selected to make the product more stable. Various connection methods also add more to the aluminum profile. opportunity. The aluminum profile is highly expandable, with a unique T-shaped groove design. Nuts and bolts can be installed at any position without disassembling the profile when installing components. The equipment is simple and quick to modify. This also greatly increases the secondary use space of aluminum profiles.

Third, the aluminum profile is beautiful and practical (now the surface of the industrial aluminum profile is silver-white oxidized), light weight and high rigidity, and the simple and beautiful appearance does not need paint. It is said that now is the age of looking at the face, the appearance of the product is good, and the quality is guaranteed, naturally I am not afraid that there will be no market. Because of this, many people gradually abandon iron products and start using aluminum profiles instead.

The above are the characteristics of aluminum profiles summarized by the editor. We can find suitable products to use through comparisons. Now aluminum profiles are a relatively easy-to-use material, but there are many areas that need to be improved. Therefore, let us look forward to better aluminum. Profile it!

Since the reform and opening up, China’s aluminum profile industry has been developing vigorously. As an important application material in the construction and machinery industry, my country has become the world’s largest aluminum profile production base and consumer market.

As we all know, as a downstream processing product of the aluminum industry chain, aluminum profiles are mainly purchased from aluminum rods and electrolytic aluminum. Aluminum rods are melted and extruded to obtain aluminum materials with different cross-sectional shapes. The production process is also constantly being improved. , Is a kind of metal raw materials widely used in modern industries.

The “Development Plan for Non-ferrous Metals Industry (2016-2020)” compiled and issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology pointed out that the main line of China’s non-ferrous metals development in the next five years is “structural reform and expansion of market demand.” From the perspective of the “13th Five-Year” development plan in the automotive manufacturing, rail transit, and aerospace industries closely related to the aluminum industry, aluminum is the non-ferrous metal that has the most conditions to expand market demand, and it also provides high-end aluminum companies with A good opportunity for development.

The aluminum profile can be divided into 1-9 series through the different composition content of aluminum and the different proportion of the added alloy composition:

1xxx series represents: 1050, 1060, 1070, 1000 series aluminum plates are also called pure aluminum plates. Among all series, the 1000 series is the series with the most aluminum content, and the purity can reach more than 99.00%.

2xxx series representatives: 2A16 (LY16), 2A12 (LY12), 2A06 (LY6), with higher hardness, with the highest content of copper, which is about 3-5%. 2000 series aluminum plates are aviation aluminum materials, which are not often used in conventional industries.

3xxx series representatives: 3003, 3003, and 3A21 are the main ones. It can also be called anti-rust aluminum plate. The production technology of 3000 series aluminum plate in my country is relatively excellent. The 3000 series aluminum plate is made of manganese as the main component, and the content is between 1.0-1.5.

4xxx series represent: 4A01, 4000 series aluminum plates, which belong to the series with higher silicon content. Usually the silicon content is between 4.5-6.0%. It belongs to construction materials, mechanical parts, forging materials, welding materials; low melting point, good corrosion resistance.

5xxx series representatives: 5052, 5005, 5083, 5A05 series. In my country, the 5000 series aluminum sheet is one of the more mature aluminum sheet series.

The 6xxx series represents: 6061, which mainly contains two elements of magnesium and silicon. Therefore, the advantages of the 4000 series and the 5000 series are concentrated. It is a cold-treated aluminum forging product, which is easy to coat, high in strength, and strong in corrosion resistance. The 6xxx series is currently the most frequently used product on the market.

The 7xxx series represents: 7075, which mainly contains zinc. It also belongs to the aerospace series. It is an aluminum-magnesium-zinc-copper alloy and a heat-treatable alloy. It is often used to manufacture aircraft structures, requiring high-strength structural parts and mold manufacturing with high strength and corrosion resistance.

The more commonly used 8xxx series is 8011, which belongs to other series. Most of the aluminum plates whose main function is to make bottle caps are also used in radiators, and most of them are aluminum foil, which is less used.

The 9xxx series is a spare series, and the International Aluminum Strip Federation specifically stated that in order to cope with the emergence of aluminum plates containing other alloying elements.
