29 Sep 2020 Extruded aluminium alloys help manufacturers make parts with specific qualities. You might need aluminium parts to be particularly strong, or unusually
6061 aluminium alloy (Unified Numbering System (UNS) designation A96061) is a precipitation-hardened aluminium alloy, containing magnesium and silicon as its major alloying elements. Originally called \"Alloy 61S\", it was developed in 1935. It has good mechanical properties, exhibits good weldability, and is very commonly extruded

Infinite number of aluminum extrusions applications. The extrusion process, combined with proper selection of alloy and quenching, provides an infinite number of applications and product improvements. For instance, Alloy 6060 offers a corrosion-resistant extrusion with an excellent finish. Alloys can be improved by heat treatment after
6xxx Series Alloys. 6000-series alloys are most frequently used for extrusion, as they provide a good balance of strength, corrosion resistance, weldability, mability, and surface finish,. For these reasons, the 6xxx alloys are used in a wide variety of applications, including transportation, architectural, consumer products and
Aluminum extrusion is a process by which aluminum alloy material is forced through a die with a specific cross-sectional profile. Aluminum extrusion can be likened to squeezing toothpaste from a tube. A powerful ram pushes the aluminum through the die and it emerges from the die opening. When it does, it comes out in the same shape as the die
12 Oct 2020 Nowadays, aluminium alloys are widely used in building hulls and superstructures of high-speed vessels instead of steels due to their high strength and lower weight The ultimate strength of panels fabricated from extruded aluminium profiles subjected to axial compression was investigated by Paulo et al. and Li et al. using
1 Sep 2021 The microstructure is typical for extruded aluminum alloys with homogeneous distribution of constituents, phases rich in second phase particles. In the dark field image of this profile sample, in Fig. 13 , notice the presence of fine MgZn 2 precipitates and AlFe 3 /Al 8 FeSi 2 second-phase particles dispersed in the aluminum matrix and in
12 Jul 2021 The tensile stress–strain curves at room temperature of the aluminum 1070 alloys extruded at different speeds are presented in Fig. 5a. The yield strength (YS) and the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) increase with increasing the extrusion speed, but the elongation (El%) is slightly
11 Sep 2020 Al–Li alloy is a new structural material with the advantages of lightweight and high strength. The extrusion profiles of Al–Li alloy are widely used in aerospace and other fields, which can significantly reduce the weight of the aerospace equipment and improve their carrying capacity and service performance. Particular service conditions of
