What are the steps required for aluminum profile processing?
The principle of aluminum profile processing is mainly achieved by extruding and forming aluminum materials.
During the extrusion molding process, the aluminum material is heated to an appropriate temperature and placed in the heating furnace of the extruder. Then, through a series of pressures and forces, the aluminum material undergoes plastic deformation, ultimately forming the desired aluminum profile.
Squeezing machines are like noodle machines, which use different molds to produce aluminum profiles of different shapes, just like noodle machines can produce noodles of different shapes.
In the process of extruding aluminum profiles, it is necessary to consider the design of the extruder and the control of pressure to ensure the quality and accuracy of the aluminum profiles.
At the same time, it is necessary to carry out subsequent processing and treatment of aluminum profiles according to specific needs to meet different application requirements.
Aluminum profile processing requires the following steps:
Melting casting: Adding aluminum ingots and magnesium and other metals in proportion to a melting furnace to obtain aluminum liquid.
By passing aluminum liquid through the casting process, different specifications of aluminum rods can be obtained.
Squeezing: According to different cross-sectional aluminum profile molds, aluminum bars are extruded into aluminum profile products of different specifications.
The extrusion method can be divided into two types: cold extrusion and hot extrusion, among which hot extrusion aluminum profiles are more common.
Straightening: The extruded profiles need to be straightened for straightness to ensure compliance with usage standards.
Oxidation processing: Due to the strong corrosion resistance and easy oxidation of aluminum, surface treatment of aluminum products is carried out to increase the wear resistance and corrosiveness of aluminum profiles.
Surface treatment: Generally, the surface of aluminum profiles is treated with anodized silver white, which is elegant, beautiful, and corrosion-resistant.
