T-slot Aluminium Extrusion
T-slot aluminum extrusion is a type of structures and frameworks material made from lightweight and durable aluminum alloy. It features a series of T-shaped slots along the profiles, allowing for easy assembly and customization of structures. T-slot aluminum extrusion is widely used in various industries for building frameworks, enclosures, and machine assemblies. It provides a versatile and modular solution, eliminating the need for welding or complex machining.
The T-slot profiles are available in a wide range of sizes, shapes, and configurations, allowing for endless design possibilities. Common profiles include 20×20 mm, 30×30 mm, 40×40 mm, and 80×80 mm, although many other sizes are available.

T-slot Aluminum Profiles Connection
T-slot aluminum profiles are commonly used for constructing mechanical structures and frameworks. They have a T-shaped cross-section and can be used to build various custom frames and structures. The profiles can be quickly assembled using a variety of accessories. The connections of T-slot aluminum profiles are achieved using compatible connecting elements. Here are several common methods:
1. T-nut connection: T-slot aluminum profiles have slots that can accommodate T-nuts. By sliding the T-nuts into the slots and using screws to connect two profiles, a reliable connection can be achieved. This connection method is widely used and suitable for various simple connection needs.
2. Slide-in connection: Slide-in connectors offer a quick and convenient connection method. The connectors can be slid into the T-slot, and by rotating a handle or wrench, the connector can be secured in the desired position. This connection method allows for easy disassembly and reconfiguration, making it suitable for applications that require frequent structural changes.
3. Corner connection: Corner connectors usually consist of two parts. One part is fixed within the T-slot, while the corresponding part is fixed on the other profile to be connected. By combining the two parts, an angled connection can be achieved. This connection method is suitable for constructing angled structures or connecting two profiles to form a stable angle.
4. Manual clamping connection: Manual clamping connectors typically consist of a handle and a clamping block. The clamping block can be manually tightened within the T-slot to connect two profiles. This connection method is simple and user-friendly, suitable for applications with lower clamping force requirements.
5. Automatic clamping connection: Automatic clamping connectors use springs or other mechanical structures to automatically clamp the profiles within the T-slot. This connection method provides higher connection force and stability, suitable for applications that require stronger and more secure connections.
