The price of industrial aluminum profiles in the market is rather chaotic, the main reason is that the processing methods are quite different from the surface treatment methods. As a manufacturer of industrial aluminum profiles, Zhuanchuang Aluminum will briefly introduce the processing methods and surface treatment methods for everyone!
Forming Process of Industrial Aluminum Profile
The processing and forming methods of industrial aluminum profiles are usually extrusion and rolling.
Extrusion Method
The extrusion method involves making a die according to the section data and size of the profile, then using an extruder to extrude the round cast bar — heated to the critical point — from the die. For example, the 6063 aluminum alloy profile undergoes an air-cooled quenching process and artificial aging treatment after extrusion to complete heat treatment strengthening. Different aluminum alloy profiles have different heat treatment methods.
Rolling Method
The rolling method is only used when large quantities of medium and small-sized bars and profiles with simple section shapes are needed, and the requirements for size and surface quality are not very high.
Surface Treatment of Industrial Aluminum Profiles
Most of the surface processing methods of industrial aluminum profiles are mainly surface anodizing, which greatly improves the overall performance of materials — so the price will be much higher.
The different application of processing and forming methods and surface treatment technology of industrial aluminum profiles will lead to differences in their quality — so there will be obvious differences in prices.
