How is aluminum alloy profile made?

First, extrusion molding

Extrusion molding is a common way of forming aluminum profiles. It is done by placing the heated aluminum billet into a set of extruders consisting of two dies, and then applying high pressure to make the aluminum billet form the desired profile shape through the die of the extruder. The advantages of this method are simple process, high efficiency, large capacity, and can produce aluminum profiles with high dimensional accuracy, and the cost is relatively low. However, extrusion molding requires pre-processed aluminum billets, and the processing process is more complicated.

Two, casting molding

Casting molding is the method of infusing aluminum liquid into the mold to form aluminum profiles according to the principle of cooling and solidification. The advantage of casting molding is that aluminum profiles with complex shapes and realistic textures can be manufactured, and large aluminum profiles can be manufactured, such as beams for Bridges. However, the disadvantages of casting molding are high cost and low production efficiency.

Third, extrusion and casting mixed molding

Extrusion and casting hybrid molding is a method in which aluminum billets are cast and then extruded to reach the desired size and shape. The advantage of this method is that large aluminum profiles can be manufactured, and the cost is relatively low, and aluminum profiles with more complex shapes can be manufactured.

In general, there are many ways to form aluminum profiles, which way to choose mainly depends on the desired aluminum profile shape and size. Either way, it is necessary to consider the cost of materials, production efficiency, quality requirements and other factors.
