Why do you need to open a mold for the production of aluminum profiles?

2023-04-11

Aluminum extrusion is a general mechanical manufacturing process that can be used to produce a wide range of cross-sectional profiles, such as rods, tubes, and profiles. The aluminum profile mold requires special technology to ensure that the parts are not damaged in the high temperature environment. In this paper we will discuss the various marking technologies that are used to mark the aluminum profile. In summary, we will look at the processing process of the aluminum extruded profile. 

 Aluminum Extrusion China

The modern process of extruding aluminum billets is based on a shaped die opening. The die opening is shaped to match the cross- sectional profile desired by the extruder. The extrution manufacturer can choose from a variety of die opening options. Once the aluminum alloy material has been expelled through the die opening, it is allowed to cool. 


Many standard and custom aluminum extrusion companies use a runout table to ensure that the components do not stick to the die during the cooling process. The cooling chamber is heated to the appropriate temperatures to ensure the billet does not freeze. The aluminum billet is then removed from the die and placed on the runout. It is then cut to the desired length. Then, the billet is placed on an extruded press, where it is pushed through a die to form the desired shape.

The billets heating, cooling, and tension straightening processes, along with the sawing and cutting processes, are used to fabricate the desired specification of rod or profile. Extrusion aluminum is a cost-effective manufacturing process that can be used to produce products in various shapes and properties. These material characteristics make extruding profiles an effective manufacturing process for several industries. The extruder can also use an automatic production line. 


As a result, the parts produced have consistent dimensions and are of high quality. In comparison, aluminum injection molds require extra thermal processing. Injection molds are made from soft aluminum, which requires less maintenance and care than rod. The cycle time of an injection molding process is shorter than that of an extrusion process.

Features such as high injection pressure and the ability to apply heat and pressure to the mold cavity, require less skilled labor. Aluminum injection molding is used in several part manufacturing industries such as plastics, rubber, fiberglass resin, and amorphous metals. Aluminum plastic injection molding molds can be used to produce parts with high precision, accuracy, and repeatability. The thermal processing of the aluminum molds requires a temperature of about 450 °F (232 °C), which is higher than the temperature required to melt the materials used in the mold. 


The three blow molding processes are extrusion blow, injection blow, and injection stretch blow. These processes are used to manufacture small hollow parts such as water bottles, cosmetic containers, and other glass, plastic, and metals-based containers and bottles. Extrusion Blow Molding: This process is used to make water bottles.
