FoShanLiangYin Exploring the Art of Aluminum Extrusion Die Design

Aluminum extrusion is a widely used manufacturing process, particularly for producing various aluminum profiles. In this blog post, we delve into the intricacies of aluminum extrusion die design, understanding the workings of this process and its crucial steps. Aluminium Profile Manufacturer (liangyin-alu.com) **Fundamental Principles of Extrusion** Extrusion involves heating a block of high-purity aluminum alloy to a suitable temperature and then using a die to squeeze out the desired cross-sectional shape. The basic principles of this process involve several key elements: 1. **Aluminum Stock Preparation**: First, high-purity aluminum alloy billets are sheared into bars of the required length. 2. **Heating**: These aluminum bars are heated to the appropriate extrusion temperature, typically between 400°C to 500°C. Heating increases the aluminum's plasticity, making it more amenable to shaping. 3. **Extrusion**: The aluminum bars are fed into an extrusion press, where one or more d

The Most You Need to Know about Aluminium for Machining

Alum 6061 Aluminum 6061 is one of the most widely used alloy materials in machining due to its price, strength and versatility. Though Aluminum 2024 has a higher strength to weight ratio, it is not as corrosion resistant. The ability of  aluminum 6061  to withstand corrosion makes it economical because it doesn’t require finishing. Once exposed to the atmosphere, it develops a thin protective layer that protects it from surface rust. The combination of corrosion resistance and low weight make it an economical material to use in short production runs because parts can be created faster. In addition, it is chemical resistant and easy to machine. Parts that require multiple processes, such as machining and then welding, benefit from Aluminum 6061 because in addition to being easy to machine it is also weldable. Aluminum 6061 Tempers There are a variety of tempers for 6061 aluminum alloy, including: ►6061-F: No special treatment ►6061-O: Annealed, good for forming ►6061-T1: Cooled and natu

Why aluminum is the right material for automotive exterior parts

I n order to achieve a lasting perfect finish on your automotive aluminum parts, you need to choose the right alloy and the right surface treatment technology. Here are a few points to consider. Some aluminum parts require near-perfect surface quality. These are the ones you see and the ones you touch. You want to get the right feel when you are holding a quality product in your hands. You can make plastic look good, but it still feels like plastic. That's one of the reasons why anodized aluminum has a market position. It gives you the feel and the look. It's about expectations and what the customer wants. Surface technology plays a key role here.   Surface technology and aluminum alloys You have to know what you want to achieve. For example, if you need gloss, then the iron content in the aluminum alloy is critical. Different alloying elements and processing routes give different material properties, which can affect the optical quality of the anode film. It will become light

How to Reduce CNC Machining Costs

When it comes to CNC machining, planning is critical. Often, CNC machining designs and projects can become unnecessarily complex - and as with almost everything in life, time is money. At Liangyin, we understand that some designs require precise details that can't be simplified, but if you want to reduce costs and have the design flexibility to change design features, this blog post is for you. By understanding the CNC machining process and the factors that affect price, you can reduce the cost of your machining project while maintaining or improving functionality. Manufacturability is the level of complexity of the manufacturing process required to make a given part. In essence, the higher the manufacturability, the lower the cost. This blog post will review some of the key ways you can reduce the cost of  CNC machined parts  and enclosures.   Material Costs In machining, the harder the material, the more difficult it is to machine. This is because we must use less time efficient

Comparing aluminum alloys for aluminum machining

CNC machining is a versatile manufacturing process that is applicable to a wide range of materials. However, the process is more commonly used in the manufacture of products using aluminum, known as aluminum machining. Aluminum machining is a process that involves the use of aluminum in the manufacture of products because aluminum comes in a variety of grades. Aluminum is highly machinable and relatively inexpensive, and the different types of aluminum alloys are suitable for a myriad of machining applications. This includes rigid building components, aerospace parts manufacturing, and more.   In fact, the different types of aluminum alloys offer some unique and distinct advantages when used for machining. They offer a wide range of options, providing you with tremendous flexibility when starting a machining project. However, narrowing down the best aluminum alloy for the job also becomes more difficult. This guide attempts to provide a quick comparison of the five most common machined
