Processes to keep aluminum coil rolls from being corroded

 Some processes help to keep a roll of aluminum coil from being corroded, including color coating, anodizing, filming etc. Although pure aluminium and aluminium alloy coils are naturally corrosion resistant, their properties are not strong enough in some application cases like roofing, ceiling and insulation that requiring higher resistance to water, sunshine, high temperatures etc.

Color coating is the most frequently applied method in improving corrosion resistance of aluminium rolls, for it’s easy to carry out and relative process is mature. Coated with PE, PVDF or PVC, rolls of aluminum coil get a “paint jacket” protecting them from most corrosive materials. With never-ending technological development, these paints become more and more environmental and durable, safe and long-lasting in both outdoor and indoor applications. Moreover, pre-painting is suitable for most ordinary alloys for aluminium coil rolls, such as 1xxx, 3xxx, 5xxx and so on. Haomei low price 1070 aluminum coil is often coated with pe paints for outdoor uses.

Anodizing is another popular method in strengthening surface properties of aluminium coils. Such a process proves to be more expensive than color painting, thus it’s less widely applied. Only manufacturers of high-tech products like cell phones and laptops need anodized aluminum coil and plate products, since color coated aluminum coil rolls do not reach their requirements in film hardness and texture effect. The biggest advantage of an anodized aluminum sheet is that it looks like any other common piece of metal in appearance, but that it lasts much much longer. Anodizing helps manufacturers to color aluminium coil and sheet products in an almost traceless way. Natural as it is, the anodized film is harder than even steel. 5005, 5052, 5083 and 5754 aluminum coil rolls are the best candidates for anodizing process and electronic shells.

Filming is more frequently applied to aluminum mirror sheets. As one of the three processing methods for reflective aluminium sheets, it has an extra function of protecting filmed aluminium surface from being attacked by corrosive elements.

Whatever method taken to enhance a roll of aluminum coil’s corrosion resistance, the purpose is to extend its service life as long as possible in certain application conditions. It’s worth mentioning that each method above has its own advantages and applicable fields.

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,...
