1,Description:
Heat buildup and uneven pressures (e.g., thin walls, uneven wall
thicknesses, and protruding features) resulting from the design of
aluminum extrusions are the biggest killers of extrusion die life.
Experienced extrusion die engineers can design dies to control heat
and uneven pressure and reduce extrusion speeds to extend die life,
but eventually the dies must be replaced.
Before designing an aluminum extrusion, the product structural
design engineer should understand which design features will most
significantly affect the cost of the die process.Where possible,
changing the design of the aluminum extrusion cross-section,
setting proper tolerances, and selecting the right aluminum alloy
material can save processing costs for aluminum extrusion dies.

5,About us
Q&A
Q-1. Why is extruded aluminum the preferred choice?
Aluminum is preferred due to its lightweight, strength, and
corrosion resistance, making it an ideal choice for various
applications.
Q-2. Can aluminum extrusions be recycled?
Yes! Aluminum profiles have a high level of recyclability, which
contributes to environmental sustainability.
Q-3. Is the aluminum profile cost-effective?
Given its durability and the efficiency of the extrusion process,
aluminum extrusions are an economical solution for many projects.
Q-4. How does the strength of aluminum extrusions compare to that
of steel?
Although steel is generally more durable, aluminum extrusions have
a better strength-to-weight ratio. Therefore, it is very suitable
for applications that prioritize weight.
Q-5. Can aluminum extrusions be customized?
Yes! One of the main advantages of aluminum extrusion is the
ability to create custom profiles for specific applications.
Question 6: Are there any limitations to using aluminum extrusions?
While versatile, aluminum extrusions may not be suitable for
applications with extremely high stress levels if the appropriate
alloy selection and design considerations are not made.
