Custom LED Aluminum Profile
Aluminum profiles are widely used in LED lighting applications due to their excellent thermal management properties, lightweight nature, and versatility in design. These profiles serve as effective heat sinks, dispersing heat generated by LEDs and thereby prolonging the lifespan of the lighting system. The robust structure of aluminum profiles provides durability and protection for the LED components. Additionally, they offer aesthetic value by allowing sleek and modern designs, accommodating various shapes and sizes of LED strips. Aluminum profiles also enhance the diffusion of light, creating a more uniform illumination and reducing glare. This makes them essential in both residential and commercial lighting solutions, where efficiency, durability, and design flexibility are key considerations.

LED Strip Aluminum Channel Install
Aluminum channels are used in LED strip installations to provide structural support and effective thermal management, ensuring the longevity of the LEDs. They also offer a sleek, professional appearance and help diffuse light for even illumination, reducing glare. These features make aluminum channels an ideal choice for both aesthetic and functional lighting applications.
Aluminum LED Heatsink Profile Extrusion
Aluminum profiles serve as excellent heat sinks in LED lighting systems, efficiently dissipating the heat generated by the LEDs to extend their lifespan and maintain optimal performance. Their high thermal conductivity ensures rapid heat transfer away from the LED components, preventing overheating. This efficient thermal management is crucial in sustaining the brightness and efficacy of LED lights over time.

How does Custom Industry Aluminum Profile Work
1. Drawing Confirmation
The first step in the custom aluminum extrusion process involves providing either CAD (.dwg/.dxf) or STEP (.stp/.step) files, or a physical sample. In response, we will prepare manufacturing drawings based on the information you provide and send them to you for approval.
2. Tooling (Die) Development
Once the drawings are approved, we proceed with the manufacturing of the extrusion die. A trial run will be conducted, and we will send you samples for validation and sign-off.
3. Production
Mass production begins after the die and samples have been approved. The typical lead time for extrusion is approximately 15 days; however, if surface treatment or machining is required, additional processing time will be necessary to accommodate those specifications.
4. Quality Inspection
Throughout the production process, we conduct in-process and final quality inspections. These checks include verifying dimensions, alloy and temper specifications, surface finish, mechanical properties, and packaging audits, all in accordance with the agreed standards.
5. Packaging
To ensure surface protection, each aluminum profile is separated using paper or ink marks to prevent abrasion during handling. We offer various packaging options, including palletization, wooden crates, or direct container stowage, based on your handling requirements.
6. Shipping
For shipping, we can arrange logistics via sea, air, rail, or multimodal transport. Incoterms and routing will be organized as per your request, and we will provide photos, packing lists, and tracking information to ensure a smooth delivery process.
Common Aluminum Profile Alloy Grades
Choosing the right alloy and heat treatment for industrial aluminum profiles is vital for achieving optimal performance across various applications. Our team of experts assists in selecting the best material grades to provide the required tensile strength, corrosion resistance, and workability. Factors such as environmental conditions, mechanical loads, and manufacturing processes are considered to recommend the most suitable aluminum alloy.
6061: This is a precipitation-hardened aluminum alloy known for its excellent mechanical properties. It contains magnesium and silicon as its primary alloying elements, making it suitable for high-stress applications.
6063: Known for its good extrudability and surface finish, this alloy is often used in architectural and structural applications. It primarily contains silicon and magnesium as alloying elements, offering good corrosion resistance.
6005: This alloy is frequently used in structural applications due to its strength and weldability. It has a composition similar to 6061 but is specifically designed for better extrudability.
6082: Known for its medium strength and excellent corrosion resistance, this alloy is often employed in highly stressed applications. It features a high percentage of magnesium and silicon, contributing to its strength and workability.
Surface Treatments for Industrial Aluminum Profiles
Anodizing forms a hard, protective oxide layer on the surface of tubular aluminum, increasing resistance to corrosion. This process allows for a variety of color options—like silver, black, champagne, and gold—creating a smooth and decorative finish. Film thickness typically ranges from 8 to 15μm, and can go up to 20μm for extra protection.
Powder coating involves spraying dry powders onto tubular aluminum and curing them at high temperatures. This produces a thick, tough layer in a wide range of vibrant colors, providing excellent protection against wear, impacts, and UV exposure. Coatings are usually 60–120μm thick.
Wood grain finishes give tubular aluminum a natural wood appearance through a special heat transfer or sublimation process. This creates a realistic wood look combined with the strength and low maintenance of aluminum. A base powder coating is applied first (typically 60–80μm thick), with the wood pattern embedded into this layer for lasting results.
Machine Service after Extrusion
After extrusion, we offer a full range of custom machining services for tubular aluminum to accommodate a variety of application needs. Our capabilities include precise cutting to length, drilling, punching, tapping, milling, bending, welding, and assembly. These advanced processes allow us to manufacture tubular aluminum parts to your exact specifications, helping you achieve high-quality, ready-to-use components that fit seamlessly into your production line and enhance the efficiency and performance of your final products.
