An Introduction to Three Lubrication Methods for Large and Medium Aluminum Extruder Presses

With the continuous development of society, medium and large aluminum extruders are used more and more frequently. Medium and large aluminum extrusion equipment production lines are generally used for various large and medium-sized flat-width, thick-walled, precise, and complicated solid and hollow aluminum profiles.

It is more common in industrial building materials, automobiles, electrical and electronic, road transportation and other industries. In these industries, the aluminum raw materials produced by medium and large aluminum extruders generally have large cross-sections, and the usage in these industries accounts for about 50%. Therefore, the daily maintenance of medium and large aluminum extrusion equipment should be paid attention to today. The knowledge we bring to you is about the lubrication of aluminum extruders, so let us understand together.

There are many ways to lubricate during the production and processing of large and medium-sized aluminum extruders. We have sorted out the following three lubrication methods:

1. Acetylene gas flame jet for the lubrication of aluminum extruders:

Acetylene gas flame injector. When it is necessary to lubricate the extruded gasket, the flame injector can automatically ignite and spurt, and the exhaust pipe when acetylene gas is ignited emits black smoke and fills the one side that extruded gasket touches the billet, so that the gasket is not easy to bond with the aluminum ingot during the whole extrusion process. Usually lubricate once after 3 to 5 times of extrusion forming.

2. Boron nitride powder for the lubrication of aluminum extruders:

Boron nitride powder is used to lubricate the extrusion pad and die sleeve of the aluminum extruder.

3. Solid-state lubricant for the lubrication of aluminum extruders:

There is also a special type of solid-state lubricating fluid to lubricate the extrusion pad and die sleeve. The benefits of this kind of lubrication method depend on the simple structure of the equipment and safe production.

The advanced large and medium-sized aluminum extruder has a reasonable structure, and its production capacity is fully utilized. Its lubrication and separation technology is worthy of our reference and learning. Only when we develop lubricating oil suitable for large-scale extruders, can we save the users' money.

Our factory is well-equipped with 40 extrusion production lines with a production capacity of 500 to 5500 tons.

With a total annual output of 15,000 tons, Otalum produces a wide range of aluminum extrusion products, including door and window systems, curtain walls, performance shutters, heat sinks, solar panel frames, etc., and can provide customized services. Our engineers can help you design your own extrusion structures and produce your own systems.

Aluminum surface treatment is another important part of the aluminum extrusion industry. Luckily we have almost all of them: 3 anodizing lines, 3 vertical powder coating lines and 6 horizontal lines, 1 PVDF painting line and 1 wood grain workshop, which give us the confidence to provide you with the desired surface treatment with perfect quality. If you have any needs, please feel free to consult us.
