The Soft Aluminum Extrusion Process at Powder Keg Coating
Powder Keg Coating specializes in delivering top-notch soft aluminum extrusion services. Our well-equipped facility and skilled professionals enable us to provide customized solutions that meet our clients' specific requirements. Here's an overview of our soft aluminum extrusion process:
Design and Die Creation
Before the extrusion process begins, our team works closely with clients to understand their design needs. We utilize advanced CAD software to conceptualize and create accurate die designs that will shape the soft aluminum into the desired profile or shape.
Material Selection
We carefully select the soft aluminum alloy based on the intended application, taking into account factors such as strength, corrosion resistance, and thermal conductivity requirements. This ensures that the final extrusion meets the highest quality standards.
Extrusion Process
Once the design and material input are finalized, we feed the soft aluminum billet into our state-of-the-art extrusion press. The press exerts high pressure on the billet, forcing it through the die to form the desired shape. The extruded aluminum is then cooled and cut to the required length.
Surface Treatment and Finishing
To enhance the properties and aesthetics of the extruded soft aluminum, we offer a range of surface treatment and finishing options. These may include anodizing, powder coating, polishing, or specialized coatings depending on the client's preferences and project requirements.
