Aluminium extrusion is a complex manufacturing process that involves heating aluminium billets and forcing them through a die to create a specific shape. As a leading manufacturer of aluminium extrusion products, Gloria aluminium has a unique and efficient process that ensures our products meet the highest quality standards.
The Intricate Manufacturing Process
The manufacturing process begins with the raw material, which is aluminium billets. These billets are heated to a specified temperature, usually between 400-500°C, to make them more malleable. Once heated, the billets are transferred to the extrusion press, which consists of a hydraulic system and a die. The die is a custom-made tool that is designed to create the desired shape of the aluminium profile.
As the billets are forced through the die, they take on the shape of the die, creating a long, continuous piece of aluminium in the desired shape. The extruded aluminium is then cooled using a water quench system or air cooling, depending on the desired properties of the final product.
After extrusion, the aluminium profiles are cut to the desired length using a saw or a flying saw. The cut profiles are then transferred to the finishing line, where they are inspected for any defects and prepared for surface treatment.
Once the surface treatment is complete, the aluminium profiles are inspected again for any defects before they are packaged and shipped to customers.
Quality Control
Gloria aluminium takes quality control seriously and has implemented a rigorous system to ensure that our products meet international standards such as ISO 9001 and SGS. The quality control process starts from the raw materials and continues throughout the manufacturing process.
Before the aluminium billets are used, they are inspected for any defects such as cracks or impurities. During extrusion, the extruded aluminium is inspected for any surface defects or cracks. Any defects are identified and removed before the profiles are cut to length.
