The production process of aluminum plate

2023-08-08

The production process of aluminum plate mainly includes the steps of raw material preparation, molten aluminum smelting, casting, rolling, cutting and surface treatment.

  1. Raw material preparation: select high-purity aluminum ingots as raw materials, and perform pretreatment on them, such as removing surface oxides and impurities.
  2. Smelting molten aluminum: Put the pretreated aluminum ingot into the melting furnace for heating to melt it into molten aluminum. During the smelting process, alloying elements such as copper, zinc, magnesium, etc. can be added as needed to adjust the properties of the aluminum plate.
  3. Casting: Pour the molten aluminum into the casting mold, and through the process of cooling and solidification, the molten aluminum gradually turns into a solid aluminum billet.
  4. Rolling: The aluminum billet is put into a rolling mill for rolling. The rolling mill gradually flattens and elongates the aluminum billet through a series of rolling actions to form the required thickness and width of the aluminum sheet.
  5. Cutting: Cut the rolled aluminum plate according to the need to get the aluminum plate of the required size.
  6. Surface treatment: carry out surface treatment on the aluminum plate, such as oxidation, coating, etc., to improve its corrosion resistance and decorative effect.

The above is the general production process of aluminum plate, and the specific production process may vary due to different types and specifications of aluminum plate.

China aluminum supplier RAYIWELL MFG / Top Metal Manufacture can supply AMS4027N aircraft standard 6061-T651 aluminum sheet.

The main alloying elements in 6061 aluminum alloy are magnesium and silicon, which have medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability, and good oxidation effect.

Magnesium-aluminum 6061-T651 is the main alloy of the 6-series alloy. It is a high-quality aluminum alloy product that has been heat-treated and pre-stretched. Magnesium-aluminum 6061 has excellent processing performance, good corrosion resistance, high toughness and no deformation after processing. It has excellent characteristics such as easy coloring film and excellent oxidation effect.
Main application of 6061-T651: Widely used in various industrial structural parts that require a certain strength and high corrosion resistance, such as manufacturing trucks, tower buildings, ships, trams, and railway vehicles.

Typical uses of 6061 include aerospace fixtures, electrical fixtures, and communications. It is also widely used in automated mechanical parts, precision machining, mold manufacturing, electronics and precision instruments, SMT, PC board solder carriers, etc.
