Processing methods for aluminium and aluminium alloys

Processing methods for aluminium and aluminium alloys

China is a large producer and consumer of aluminium alloy materials, and we, HOMELY Aluminum Co., Ltd. are the first-class manufacturer and seller of aluminium alloy in China. Aluminum alloy materials are widely used in transportation, marine, air and space fields, especially in some light weight key components of automobiles, aircraft, aerospace, ships and other fields, aluminum alloy materials are irreplaceable, so today we will talk with you about aluminum and aluminum alloy processing methods.

Casting method: Using the good fluidity and fillability of cast aluminum alloy, under the action of certain temperature, speed and external force, the molten aluminum alloy is cast into various existing models by pouring, pressure injection, inhalation, etc., so as to obtain aluminum alloy castings and die-castings of the required shape and organizational properties.

Plastic forming method: Using the good plasticity of aluminium and aluminium alloy, under certain temperature and speed conditions, pressure is applied to the raw material in various forms to overcome the resistance of the metal to deformation, so that plastic deformation can be produced to obtain aluminium and aluminium alloy products of various shapes, sizes and organisational properties.

Aluminium can be broadly classified into the following categories according to the processing method and the state of forming of the material: castings, die castings, plates, strips, foils, strips, tubes, bars, shapes, wires, powders, die forgings, etc.
