Slitting of thin aluminum strips

Thin aluminum strips are used more and more widely. High quality aluminium strips have good flexibility, high precision and good processing toughness. Unlike aluminium strip 2mm or 3mm, they are much thinner and more difficult to be processed. The slitting step proves to be a crucial. Relative slitting rules are as below.
This shows rolls of thin aluminum strips.
The first thing after receiving an order sheet for thin aluminum strips to do is to fully understand its intention and check whether the data indicated in the diagram coincide with the single-related data. In accordance with the conditions, the material plan and the procedures for obtaining materials can be carried out. After specifications and colour of the raw materials have been approved and signed by the warehouse clerk, the materials shall be collected and sent to the workshop. Before slitting an aluminum roll, you should first adjust the locator to the required size, cut a small point, and then check whether the size is in line with the required size. The normal slitting should not start until the size gets stable and precise.
In addition, not all the surface of raw materials of thin aluminum strips has been machined. The unprocessed surface is left with overly thick oxide layer formed in the casting process. At this time, the original oxide film of this part should be removed first by machining, or by alkali washing and reprocessing. Only in this way can the original oxide layer of unprocessed part be removed and machined avoided. Finally, the correct operation and maintenance of the cutting machine can not be ignored. Correct operation and use can prevent abnormal wear and tear of machine tools and avoid sudden failure. Daily maintenance can keep the equipment in good technical condition, delay the aging process, timely discovery and elimination of hidden trouble, and will not affect the normal cutting of aluminum strips because of temporary accidents.

Slitting of 1mm 2mm 4mm aluminium strip

What kind of machine is used to make aluminum sheets into 1mm 2mm 4mm aluminium strip belts? Many people might think about a shearing device, but they are actually dealt with by a continuous slitting unit of a similar working principle to that of a shearing device. The difference lies in the point that there is no pause of shearing with a continuous slitting unit. Generally, the mother roll, namely, an  aluminum coil  to be slit, is placed. During the slitting process, the coil roll is divided into several belts which are further rolled into narrow aluminium strip rolls. The slitting method of both  1mm 2mm 4mm aluminium strip  or other aluminum strips can be divided into two types: a straight pull type and a loose sleeve type. The straight pull type refers to the method that aluminum strip rolls are kept in tension from being fed into the unwinding sail to being coiled by the coiling machine, and this production method is suitable for trimming and intermediate ...

Diamond Embossed Aluminum Sheet Application

The  diamond embossed aluminum sheet  refers to aluminium sheets with diamond patterns on the surface. In addition to 1000 series, 5005 and 3003 are frequently applied alloys as well. 5005  diamond embossed aluminum sheet s can be used for conductivity materials, cookware, instrument panels, electronic shells and building ornaments. Their anodized film proves to be brighter than that of 3003, and the color matches perfectly with that of 6063 aluminum alloy products. Generally speaking,  diamond aluminum checker plate s are sold by the unit of pieces. In international business the unit of metric ton is frequently used as well. Their thickness ranges from 1.7mm to 8mm, but those between 2mm and 7.75mm prove to be the most popular. The width is from 1010 to 1500, among which 1250 and 1500 are most frequently adopted. Embossed aluminum sheet s with different patterns usually match varied application scope. Five-bar and one-bar sheets are mostly used for anti-skid pu...

Embossed Aluminium Coil Patterns And Applications

图片
If you have ever used an escalator you might have noticed that there are partition panels respectively at the bottom and top of the escalator. These partitions are usually paved with  embossed aluminium sheet  coil that have a good pressure bearing capacity and are made of composite metals. As a matter of fact, there are various patterns and applications of embossed aluminium coil, and here we will give a simple introduction. 　　Patterns 　　Aluminum sheets with patterns on the surface is called embossed aluminum sheets or  aluminium tread plate . Pattern shapes include lentils, diamonds, round beans, and oblate mixed shapes. The market is most common in lentils. 　　Application 　　The aluminium tread plate has beautiful appearance, excellent anti-slip property, enhanced performances, and material-saving advantage in production. It is widely used in transportation, construction, decoration, equipment, floor, machinery, shipbuilding and other fields. Generally speaking,...
