What influences aluminium circle price

The aluminium circle price fluctuates day by day. However, it does not change randomly. The price has something to do with aluminum ingot price, rolling way, alloy, surface treatment process etc.
As a raw material for all aluminium products, aluminum ingot price is closely related to the price of electricity, relation between demand and supply of oxide aluminium, demand of aluminium sheet roll products and even economic situation. Any changes in these complicated factors result in fluctuation of the price of aluminium round sheets.

Rolling way refers to whether the aluminium disc circles are made by cold or hot rolling aluminum process. Hot rolled circles are more expensive because the process costs extra time and money. Needless to say, their performances overshadow cold rolled pieces as well, especially in elongation.
Alloy refers to the aluminium grade of which a circle is made of, regularly incorporates 1050, 1060, 1070, 1100, 3003 and 5052. 3xxx and 5xxx circle price is higher than 1xxx sheets of the same size and surface treatment methods, for they contain more alloying metals that function to improve the sheet’s hardness and corrosion resistance. For example, 1060 aluminum circle price is lower than that of 3003 circle for cookware.
Surface treatment methods for aluminium circles mainly include anodizing and color coating, both of which prove to be costly. Anodizing is an electrolytic process stimulating the birth of a hard protective layer on the sheet surface, and color coating a physical process of coating PE or PVDF paint on the surface. Both processes are used in production of high-end products like alu disc for pressure cookers.
The factors above are key elements impacting the price of aluminum circle sheets. In addition, other aspects, such as delivery cost, currency exchange rate and so on, cause fluctuation of the price, too. Foreign purchasers are advised to learn something about China aluminium index market before putting orders to aluminum discs suppliers.

Slitting of 1mm 2mm 4mm aluminium strip

图片
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,...
