Astas AluminyumAnodized Aluminium Profile
The production process in the rolled aluminium profile facility begins with the supply of cylindrical aluminium billets. Once these aluminium billets arrive at the facility, they are first weighed, and then they are stacked within the raw material entry unit. Subsequently, these billets undergo a preparation phase tailored to meet customer requirements. Then, the prepared billets are conveyed to the loading machine and subsequently dispatched to the extrusion unit.
The production of aluminium profiles relies on the extrusion process, which consumes electricity, natural gas, and water. Our extrusion lines are utilized to manufacture aluminium profiles for a wide range of industries and applications.
The process starts with the heated billets sourced from the raw material input unit, reaching temperatures between 440-450ºC in the billet furnace. The billets, heated in the furnace, are then precisely cut to meet the specific order requirements while being adhered to the mold with controlled pressure. The mold aids in shaping and producing the profile. The profiles emerging from the press are allowed to cool on designated benches, with any profiles exceeding 500ºC being cooled using fans.
Once adequately cooled, the profiles undergo stretching in a dedicated machine, followed by flattening and transfer to the saw for precise cutting according to the customer's specified length. Subsequently, the profiles are subjected to hardening within a thermal (artificial aging) oven. Quality checks are performed to verify the hardness of the profiles upon exiting the thermal furnace, after which they are dispatched to the eloksal unit according to customer demand. Among the many types of coatings used, anodizing stands out as one of the most commonly utilized.
Anodizing is achieved through an electrochemical process that thickens and strengthens the thin natural oxide coating already present on the aluminium.
The anodizing process involves several essential steps. Initially, pretreatment is carried out using acid/alkali solutions to remove dirt, grease, and impurities from the surface. Subsequently, an etching process is applied to roughen the surface. Finally, the profiles to be coated are immersed in an electrolyte and passed through it using direct current. This process utilizes aluminium plates to create an aluminium oxide surface on the profiles. To ensure the quality of the products completed in the anodizing bath pools, the operator conducts measurements to check the coating thickness. Products meeting the quality standards are prepared for shipment in line with customer requests.
Anodizing is a preferred process for several reasons. Firstly, it enhances the corrosion resistance of the aluminium profiles, extending the product's lifespan. Additionally, the anodizing process offers an elegant appearance, with a wide range of color options available.
