Once the design is finalized, we proceed to manufacture the custom extrusion dies. Our precision die-making process ensures that the final profile will match your specifications with high accuracy. We employ state-of-the-art CNC machines to craft dies that can withstand the rigors of extrusion while maintaining tight tolerances.
Step 4: Aluminum Extrusion
With the dies ready, the actual extrusion process begins. We select the appropriate aluminum alloy and heat it to the precise extrusion temperature. The heated billet is then pressed through the die to create the custom profile. Our extrusion presses, ranging from 600 to 3600 tons, are capable of producing a wide range of profile sizes and shapes.
Step 5: Surface Treatment and Finishing
Following extrusion, the profiles undergo various surface treatments as per your requirements. Options include anodizing, electroplating, sandblasting, powder coating, fluorocarbon painting, and wood grain transfer printing. These processes enhance the profiles’ durability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal.
Step 6: Quality Assurance
Quality is at the heart of everything we do. Each custom aluminum profile is subjected to rigorous quality checks to ensure it meets ISO standards and our European quality certifications. We perform dimensional inspections, mechanical testing, and surface finish evaluations to guarantee that your profiles are delivered without defects.
