RFQ de perfil de aluminio extruido
When choosing between extruded and die-cast aluminum housings, it’s important to understand how they differ in terms of material properties, manufacturing methods, design flexibility, and applications. Below is a breakdown of the key differences:
1. Manufacturing Process
- Extruded Aluminum Housing:
The extrusion process involves forcing heated aluminum billets through a custom die to create long profiles with a consistent cross-section. These profiles are then cut, machined, or shaped into a variety of housing designs. - Die Cast Aluminum Housing:
Die casting involves injecting molten aluminum under high pressure into a steel mold (die) to form a specific shape. The process produces fully formed parts in a single step, often requiring less secondary machining.
2. Material Usage and Properties
- Extruded Aluminum:
Uses aluminum alloys such as 6063, 6061, and 6005, which are known for their excellent corrosion resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and superior thermal conductivity. Ideal for housings requiring lightweight and high thermal performance, such as LED housings and electronic enclosures. - Die Cast Aluminum:
Uses alloys like ADC12 and A380, which tend to have higher density and slightly reduced corrosion resistance but provide excellent casting properties. These are ideal for creating complex, integrated shapes with good dimensional stability.
3. Design Complexity
- Extruded Aluminum:
Best suited for simple, linear designs with a consistent cross-section, such as cylindrical or rectangular housings. While additional machining can add complexity, designs are mostly limited to the extrusion profile. - Die Cast Aluminum:
Offers significantly more design freedom, allowing highly detailed and complex geometries, such as curves, thin walls, and intricate patterns. Perfect for parts requiring integrated features like mounting holes or thin walls.
4. Dimensional Accuracy and Surface Finish
- Extruded Aluminum:
Requires post-processing, like CNC machining, to achieve tight dimensional tolerances and specific designs. Usually, the surface finish is uniform, but additional finishing (like anodizing or powder coating) enhances its final appearance. - Die Cast Aluminum:
Achieves tight tolerances and detailed shapes directly from the mold. Features a smoother surface out of the die, but finishing options like coating or polishing may still be added for aesthetics.
5. Cost and Production Volume
- Extruded Aluminum:
Suitable for medium to high production volumes where long and consistent profiles are needed. The upfront cost for dies is lower than die casting, making it more economical for certain designs. - Die Cast Aluminum:
Involves higher mold costs and is best suited for high-volume production. The cost per part decreases significantly with larger batch sizes due to the efficiency of the single-step process.
6. Applications
- Extruded Aluminum:
Commonly used for housings requiring excellent heat dissipation, such as LED heat sinks, electronics enclosures, and industrial casings. - Die Cast Aluminum:
Used in housings with complex shapes or highly integrated designs, such as automotive parts, engine housings, and intricate enclosures for machinery or appliances.
Conclusion
- Extruded Aluminum Housing is ideal for applications where simplicity, lightweight features, and excellent thermal conductivity are essential.
- Die Cast Aluminum Housing is better suited for complex and detailed designs requiring high-dimensional accuracy and integrated features.
The choice between the two depends on your specific requirements, including design, performance, production volume, and budget.

Para los proyectos de extrusión de aluminio a medida, aceptamos una gran variedad de formatos de dibujo, entre los que se incluyen Archivos CAD, Ficheros STEPy Archivos PDF. Sin embargo, para extrusiones que requieren procesos de mecanizado adicionales, se recomienda proporcionar Ficheros STEPya que garantizan un modelado 3D preciso para la exactitud del mecanizado.
En Archivos PDF son aceptables, convertirlos en dibujos CAD puede provocar la pérdida de ciertos detalles, lo que nos obligaría a redibujar manualmente el diseño, con el consiguiente aumento del plazo de entrega. Para obtener un presupuesto más rápido y preciso, le recomendamos que nos facilite Archivos CAD (por ejemplo, DWG/DXF) y Ficheros STEP para garantizar la eficacia de la evaluación del diseño y la fijación de precios.
Los honorarios de los moldes son una parte esencial del proceso de extrusión de aluminio a medida. Dado que cada pedido requiere un molde de diseño exclusivo adaptado a requisitos específicos, estos moldes no pueden utilizarse para otros productos. Por lo tanto, la tarifa del molde es necesaria y no negociable.
Necesitamos 100% pago por adelantado de la tasa del molde antes de que comience el desarrollo del molde para garantizar una producción puntual. Sin embargo, como muestra de agradecimiento por su apoyo, ofrecemos la devolución del importe del molde o descuentos equivalentes una vez que el pedido alcance un determinado volumen de producción. Las políticas específicas pueden discutirse en función del volumen de su pedido y los detalles de colaboración.
Nuestra cantidad mínima de pedido (MOQ) varía en función del tamaño del producto. Para productos de menor tamaño, la MOQ suele ser 500 kgmientras que para los productos de mayor tamaño 2 toneladas.
Le especificaremos los requisitos exactos de MOQ durante el proceso de cotización. Si la cantidad de su pedido no se ajusta al MOQ, podemos organizar la producción, pero se aplicará una tarifa adicional para cubrir el precalentamiento del molde y el tiempo de preparación de la producción. Puede estar seguro de que este coste adicional será razonable y nuestro objetivo es que sea el mínimo posible para garantizar una cooperación fluida.
La producción de moldes suele llevar 7 días. Una vez confirmada la muestra, la producción de un contenedor lleno de 26 toneladas generalmente requiere 14 días sólo para extrusión. Si se requiere un tratamiento de superficie, se requiere un 3 días será necesario. Para el mecanizado, se necesitará tiempo adicional en función de la complejidad y el volumen del trabajo de mecanizado. El tiempo adicional exacto para el mecanizado se determinará en función de los requisitos específicos de procesamiento.
Los perfiles de aluminio son resistentes a la corrosión por naturaleza debido a la formación de una fina capa protectora de óxido cuando se exponen al aire o al agua. Esta capa de óxido es estable y autorreparable, lo que significa que incluso si la superficie se raya o se corta (como en los extremos expuestos o durante el procesamiento), el aluminio no se oxidará ni corroerá como el hierro o el acero. En su lugar, las zonas expuestas formarán rápidamente una nueva capa de óxido, proporcionando una protección continua contra la oxidación posterior.
Con un diseño, una instalación y un mantenimiento adecuados, los perfiles de aluminio pueden durar décadasincluso en entornos difíciles. Por ejemplo, el aluminio sin tratar puede resistir fácilmente entre 20 y 30 años en aplicaciones al aire libre, mientras que los perfiles con tratamientos superficiales como el anodizado o el recubrimiento en polvo pueden durar incluso más, superando a menudo los 20 años. 50 años. Esto convierte al aluminio en una opción excelente para aplicaciones en las que la durabilidad y el rendimiento a largo plazo son esenciales.
El precio de los perfiles de aluminio consta de varios componentes: costes de la materia prima, tasas de procesamiento de extrusión, tasas de tratamiento de superficies, costes de mecanizado y tasas adicionales de embalaje. Entre ellos, el coste del aluminio como materia prima tiende a fluctuar con frecuencia, mientras que los demás honorarios permanecen relativamente estables. Debido a estas fluctuaciones, nuestros presupuestos suelen ser válidos para 7 días.
La fijación de precios puede estructurarse de distintas maneras en función del producto y los requisitos. Puede calcularse por peso (por ejemplo, coste por tonelada), por longitud (por ejemplo, coste por metro), o por pieza (por ejemplo, coste por unidad). En el caso de los productos que requieren un gran mecanizado, como disipadores de calorEl precio se calcula generalmente por pieza para reflejar con exactitud los costes adicionales de procesamiento. Este enfoque de precios flexible garantiza que el presupuesto se adapte a las necesidades específicas del cliente.
Podemos fabricar perfiles de aluminio conforme a requisitos técnicos que cumplen Normas europeas (EN), normas americanas (ASTM/AA)u otras normas especificadas por el cliente. La producción a medida se adapta para garantizar que los perfiles cumplen los requisitos estándar específicos solicitados.
Nuestros equipos de producción están diseñados sistema métrico. Si los dibujos facilitados están en el sistema imperialPara garantizar la precisión, los convertiremos en unidades métricas para la producción.
Es importante tener en cuenta que, aunque podemos mecanizar orificios con rosca imperial para elementos de fijación, si necesita que le suministremos los correspondientes tornillería imperialno siempre están disponibles en stock. Los pedidos personalizados de fijaciones imperiales suelen requerir un gran volumen para la producción. Tenga esto en cuenta a la hora de planificar su proyecto.
