What Are the Uses of Aluminum Extruder in the Automotive Industry?

Today's aluminum has been involved in all walks of life, from the common traffic tools, lighting, electronic products have involved, these aluminum products are created through the use of aluminium extrusion press production line, in addition to this aluminum often meet in daily life, there is a car that is aluminum is also produced by aluminum extrusion machine, Today, we will popularize the knowledge of aluminum alloy profiles for automobiles.

Ⅰ. The development trend of aluminum alloy profiles in automobile

As one of the effective means of automotive lightweight, aluminum alloy extruded profiles can be produced simply with various complex sectional structures that steel cannot produce. Extruded profiles are widely used in various parts of automobiles as structural materials because of their lightweight and good rigidity.

The application space of aluminum extruded profiles in automobiles has grown significantly with the advancement of aluminum processing technology, high-precision three-dimensional bending processing technology of profiles, and the establishment of microstructure control and uniform yield strength control heat treatment technology of alloy materials. Aluminum content in some models has increased from a few percent in the 1990s to more than 20 percent, and in some cases, more than 30 percent.

Ⅱ. Aluminum extruder can produce what parts of the car?

Aluminum extruders can be used to make the following components for automobile bodies: bumper anti-collision beam, energy absorption box, door anti-collision beam, instrument panel bracket, front girdle, frame girder, radiator and its bracket, oil pipe, sliding rail components, heat exchanger rubber pipe joints, and other components with uniform cross-section and complex shape.

Ⅲ. The importance of aluminum extruded profiles in the use of automobile body

Aluminum extruder produced by the automotive aluminum, most of which are used in the car body structure: combination frame structure, mainly frame girder, front girdle and other parts. Aluminum profiles account for 22% of the body's aluminum alloy, and now aluminum profiles are more widely used.

Aluminum profiles have a wide range of applications, but the size of the required aluminum extruder equipment varies.

Otalum was founded in 1984 and has grown to become a professional aluminium profile manufacturer for building systems and industrial applications after 36 years of development. Our facility is well-equipped with 40 extrusion production lines with capacities ranging from 500 to 5500 tons.

Otalum is mined at a rate of 15,000 tons per year. Customized services can be provided by the manufacture of a wide range of aluminum extrusion products, such as door and window systems, curtain walls, performance shutters, heat fins, aluminum solar panel frame, and so on. You are welcome to consult if necessary.
