Some of the popular products using aluminium profile extruded in the
category of Engineered products industry are discussed here.
Machinery and Equipment
In this category there are many items, some of the popular extruded
aluminium profiles are discussed here:
Forklift Control Modules
The basic criteria for Fork lift control modules is to withstand its abuse
and be extreme strong. Some of the advantages of using aluminium extrusions
include:
- Extrusion offers an excellent near net shape
- Lightweight and stronger structurally
- Lower tooling costs
- Good compatibility with other products
Factory Automation Systems
In the sphere of factory automation there is considerable use of aluminum
extruded profiles. It has enhanced the design of material handling systems.
The following image shows a conveyor belt made from extruded aluminium frame
incorporating the latest technologies. Aluminium extruded profiles offer
precise near net shapes for the track, trays and supports, that provides
flexibility and ease in installation for a number of products including
automobile tyre industry.
Backdraught Damper
Backdraught Damper uses extruded aluminium blades and is designed for
restricting the air back flow. The damper can easily be fitted to
partitions, brick walls, on plenums or can be even duct mounted.
Extruded Aluminium Profiles : Making Life
Easier for Parents
As increasingly manufacturer of children's prams are switching over to
aluminium, Parents are not complaining as life is becoming easier for
parents. The heavy steel design of the prams is now replaced by extruded
aluminium profiles. The frames are made of extruded aluminium which is
both bent and welded to add quality and durability.
