  • How to choose an Aluminum extrusion machine
    How to choose an Aluminum extrusion machine Dec 06, 2024
    With the increasing adoption of aluminum profiles across various industries, the complexity of profile cross-sections and dimensions continues to grow. Aluminum extrusion press machine, as key equipment in aluminum product manufacturing, significantly impact the surface quality and dimensional precision of aluminum profiles. A high-quality extrusion press can bring substantial economic benefits to enterprises. As the industry trends toward larger-scale and automated presses, selecting the right equipment has become a crucial challenge for manufacturers. Below are some practical guidelines to assist in choosing the most suitable Extrusion press, using Huanan Heavy Industry Technology Co., Ltd. as an example. 1. Choose Based on Machine Type Extrusion presses can be categorized by their structure, transmission method, and functional purpose. Common types include hydraulic, oil-hydraulic, vertical, horizontal, forward extrusion, and backward extrusion presses. When selecting the appropriate type, consider the specific aluminum alloy and its intended application. For instance, a forward single-action horizontal press is ideal for extruding 6063-T5 industrial aluminum profiles, while a forward double-action horizontal press suits soft alloy tubing. Enterprises should choose based on their production needs and budget. In industrial production, forward single-action horizontal hydraulic extrusion press machine are the most widely used. 2. Choose Based on Extrusion Capacity After deciding on the type, the next step is to determine the press's extrusion capacity. Extrusion presses are classified as heavy-duty, large, medium, or small based on their force capacity. For example, a 7500-ton hydraulic press is heavy-duty, a 4000-ton press is large, a 2500-ton press is medium, and presses under 1000 tons are small. The required extrusion capacity is calculated based on production conditions, technical capabilities, and market demands. Parameters such as annual production hours and hourly output must be considered.The size and complexity of the profile cross-section, as well as the alloy composition, dictate the required extrusion force. For example, standard aluminum profiles typically require 250-400 MPa, hollow profiles need 450-1000 MPa, while pure aluminum requires a lower force of 150-250 MPa. Additionally, the extrusion method impacts the force required—forward extrusion generally demands 1/3 more force than backward extrusion. 3. Choose Based on Equipment Grade Once the type and capacity are decided, the next step is to select the appropriate grade of extrusion press. This choice should align with the manufacturer’s product positioning and budget. For mid-range aluminum profiles, domestic extrusion presses are a cost-effective option. However, for high-end products, investing in imported equipment may be necessary.Regardless of the grade, the decision should be practical and economically sound. For instance, if your production focuses on mid-range profiles, there’s no need to opt for high-cost imported presses from Germany. Not only is the initial investment significantly higher, but maintenance and operational costs also increase, potentially impacting production schedules. It’s essential to evaluate all aspects comprehensively and choose Aluminum extrusion equipment that fits your operational needs and financial capacity. By following these principles, aluminum profile manufacturers can make informed decisions, ensuring efficiency and quality while optimizing costs.
  • What materials can be extruded using an aluminum extrusion machine?
    What materials can be extruded using an aluminum extrusion machine? Nov 15, 2024
                                     What materials can be extruded using an aluminum extrusion machine? Extrusion casting, also known as liquid die forging, involves completing the filling, solidification, and shrinkage compensation processes under pressure, which refines the grain size, improves the microstructure, and controls casting defects. The most significant feature of extrusion casting compared to other solid-liquid forming methods is high-pressure solidification and crystallization. The process is highly adaptable and suitable for producing multi-alloy systems, including both cast and forged aluminum alloys. It is also effective for creating complex-shaped, thick-walled, and large-cast parts. The process is simple and can be easily automated. Extrusion castings have excellent microstructural quality, with fine grains, compact microstructures, low porosity, and superior mechanical properties. The castings can undergo solid solution and aging treatments, offering high surface quality and dimensional accuracy. Due to these advantages, extrusion casting has largely replaced other forming methods in the production of precision, high-quality castings and parts that meet special performance requirements, such as high strength, toughness, wear resistance, and gas-tightness, in industries like automotive, telecommunications, high-speed rail, and power generation. Alloy materials play a crucial role in determining process parameters and directly influencing the service life of molds. Currently, aluminum alloys and aluminum-based composites are the focus of extrusion casting materials. Among them, Al-Si, Al-Cu, and Al-Zn series aluminum alloys are the most widely used, with the research on Al-Si alloys being the most developed due to their excellent casting properties. Key factors such as filling ability, hot crack sensitivity, and shrinkage compensation ability are critical indicators of alloy performance in casting processes. It has been found that extrusion casting exhibits strong adaptability to aluminum alloys, with relatively low requirements for the alloy’s processability—emphasizing instead the alloy’s end-use performance. To meet specific performance requirements like high strength, toughness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance, and creep resistance, the development of dedicated extrusion casting alloys is essential. Expanding the application range of aluminum alloy extrusion casting technology and improving casting quality remain enduring themes in the development of this field.

  • The process characteristics and advantages of aluminum extrusion molding
    The process characteristics and advantages of aluminum extrusion molding Nov 08, 2024
    The process characteristics and advantages of aluminum extrusion molding In recent years, driven by the demand for miniaturization and lightweight design across various industries, aluminum and its alloys have gained significant popularity due to their excellent malleability, high strength, corrosion resistance, and light weight. As a result, aluminum extrusion products have seen increasing use in fields such as construction, packaging, transportation, electronics, healthcare, and aerospace.   Definition of Aluminum Extrusion Aluminum extrusion is a forming process where an aluminum alloy billet is placed in a die cavity (or extrusion chamber) and subjected to substantial pressure. This pressure causes the aluminum to undergo directional plastic deformation and flow through the die openings, creating profiles with desired cross-sectional shapes, dimensions, and specific mechanical properties.   Types of Aluminum Extrusion Processes Aluminum extrusion can be classified into several types based on the metal flow direction relative to the die's motion:   Direct Extrusion: The metal flows in the same direction as the die's movement. Indirect Extrusion: The metal flows in the opposite direction to the die's movement. Compound Extrusion: Part of the metal flows in the same direction as the die movement, while the other part flows in the opposite direction. Radial Extrusion: The metal flows at a 90-degree angle to the die's movement. Key Features of the Aluminum Extrusion Process The extrusion process places the metal under intense three-dimensional compressive stress, providing it with better plasticity compared to rolling or forging. Extrusion allows the production of not only simple shapes (like rods and tubes) but also complex profiles. It offers high flexibility, as changing a die can enable the production of different shapes, sizes, and types on the same equipment—resulting in a time-efficient and highly adaptable process. Extruded products exhibit high dimensional precision, excellent surface quality, and improved material utilization. The process enhances the mechanical properties of the metal. With a relatively short process flow, extrusion allows the production of large, integrated components in a single step. It requires lower investment in equipment and dies, making it cost-effective. Aluminum alloys are particularly suited for extrusion, supporting diverse extrusion processes and die structures. Advantages of Aluminum Extrusion Enhanced Deformation Capability: Aluminum in the extrusion zone undergoes strong triaxial compressive stress, optimizing its plasticity and allowing significant deformation. High Product Quality: Extrusion improves the structure and mechanical properties of aluminum. After quenching and aging, extruded products achieve superior longitudinal strength (along the extrusion direction) compared to other processing methods. Extruded products also feature high dimensional accuracy and excellent surface finish. Wide Product Range: Extrusion can produce simple profiles like tubes, bars, and wires, as well as intricate hollow and solid shapes. It also enables variable cross-sectional profiles that are difficult or impossible to create through other plastic forming methods. Production Flexibility: Extrusion is highly adaptable, allowing for the production of different products on the same equipment simply by changing the die. This ease of tool change makes it a quick and efficient process.   Simple Process and Low Investment: Compared to other methods like piercing rolling or groove rolling, extrusion has a simpler production process, requires fewer pieces of equipment, and demands lower investment.

  • What is the typical lifespan of an aluminum extruder?
    What is the typical lifespan of an aluminum extruder? Oct 11, 2024
                                              What is the typical lifespan of an aluminum extruder? In general, the lifespan of an extruder can range from 5 to 20 years. At Huanan Heavy Industry Technology Co., Ltd., the aluminum extruders we produce have a minimum lifespan of 10 to 20 years, with an average lifespan of around 15 years. However, the exact lifespan varies depending on several factors, such as the type of materials being processed, production volume, extrusion time, machine maintenance, equipment manufacturing quality, and the operating environment. Therefore, it's difficult to provide a specific lifespan for an Aluminum extrusion machine. If the materials being processed cause significant wear on the cutting edge of the Aluminum extrusion machine , or if there is high production volume and extended continuous operation, the extruder's lifespan may be shorter. Additionally, if the extruder is not properly maintained and serviced in a timely manner, or if the working environment is harsh, its lifespan could also be affected.   To extend the lifespan of an Aluminum extrusion press, it is essential to choose reliable, high-quality equipment, ensuring the manufacturing quality and design technology meet standards. At the same time, the machine should be used correctly, following the guidelines in the user manual, with regular inspections and maintenance carried out. Parts should be replaced, repaired, or serviced promptly. Moreover, it is important to manage the equipment's working environment, ensuring the machine is operating under favorable conditions to prevent external factors from negatively affecting the extruder.    
  • The reasons for difficulties in extruding aluminum profiles with an extruder
    The reasons for difficulties in extruding aluminum profiles with an extruder Sep 19, 2024
    When the Aluminum extrusion machine is operating normally, the aluminum forming speed is consistent and uniform. If the extruder is not running smoothly or is unable to extrude aluminum profiles, it is likely due to the following reasons: 1,Low Aluminum Billet Temperature: If the aluminum billet's temperature is too low and does not reach the required extrusion temperature, it can cause difficulties. The billet temperature should be maintained between 400-540°C (for 6xxx series aluminum alloys), with an optimal range of 470-500°C. The required temperature varies for different aluminum profiles. If the temperature is too high, it can cause tearing; if too low, it can reduce extrusion speed because the aluminum needs to be softened. Most of the frictional force generated during extrusion is converted into heat, leading to an increase in temperature. The temperature rise is proportional to the extrusion speed and extrusion pressure. Therefore, to reduce deformation resistance and achieve a high extrusion speed, it is essential to control the extrusion temperature within the desired range. 2,Die Temperature: The die temperature is crucial for both the quality of the extruded profile and the extrusion speed. Typically, the die temperature should not be lower than 426°C before extrusion. If the temperature is too low, it can lead to clogging or even damage the die. Therefore, die temperature is a key factor affecting whether the aluminum profile extruder can achieve high productivity. 3, Extrusion Cylinder Temperature: During the preheating phase of the extruder, it is important to avoid excessive thermal stress and ensure that internal thermal stress is eliminated. The required temperature for the extrusion cylinder varies depending on the type of aluminum billet but generally needs to be above 426°C. 4, Low Extrusion Speed: A low extrusion speed can result in insufficient extrusion pressure, making it difficult to extrude the aluminum profile. In addition to the primary reasons mentioned above, there are other potential causes such as high oil temperature, insufficient lubrication of the extruder, poor die design, and improper aluminum billet length. Our company, Huanan Heavy Industry Technology Co., Ltd., has 30 years of experience in the extrusion industry, producing approximately 160 to 200 Aluminum extrusion machines annually. We have accumulated substantial knowledge and experience in extruder technology. If you would like to discuss extrusion machine-related topics, feel free to contact us at jessica@huananmachine.com.

  • Influence of extrusion ratio on aluminum extrusion quality
    Influence of extrusion ratio on aluminum extrusion quality Sep 13, 2024
    Influence of extrusion ratio on aluminum extrusion quality The extrusion ratio has a significant influence on the microstructure and mechanical properties of aluminum extrusions. Here's how it impacts these aspects: 1. Grain Structure: lHigher Extrusion Ratios: Tend to produce finer grain structures. This is because the increased flow and deformation can promote more uniform and finer grain refinement. Finer grains generally enhance the strength and toughness of the extruded material. lLower Extrusion Ratios: May result in coarser grain structures. Coarser grains can lead to reduced mechanical properties compared to those with finer grains. 2. Mechanical Properties: lStrength and Hardness: Higher extrusion ratios often lead to improved strength and hardness. The fine-grained structure resulting from higher ratios contributes to better mechanical properties. lDuctility: The impact on ductility can be variable. While higher extrusion ratios typically improve strength, they can sometimes reduce ductility if the metal flow induces internal stresses or defects. lTensile Properties: Extrusions with higher ratios can show better tensile properties due to more uniform microstructure and reduced porosity. However, achieving these benefits requires careful control of other process parameters. 3. Homogeneity: lMaterial Homogeneity: Higher extrusion ratios can lead to more homogeneous material properties along the length of the extrusion. This is because the increased flow helps to distribute alloying elements and reduce segregation. 4. Internal Defects: lInclusions and Voids: Higher extrusion ratios can reduce the incidence of internal defects such as inclusions and voids, as the extrusion process tends to consolidate the material more effectively. However, excessive ratios can introduce new challenges, such as increased risk of billet cracking or die clogging.   In summary, the extrusion ratio is a crucial parameter that influences multiple facets of aluminum extrusion quality. While higher extrusion ratios often enhance mechanical properties and material homogeneity, they can also introduce challenges related to die wear, surface finish, and dimensional tolerances. Balancing these factors is key to optimizing the extrusion process and achieving the desired quality of the final product.

The heating rate and the uniformity of furnace temperature are strictly required in this process, and the aging temperature of the process is mostly (210 ±5) ℃.     In addition to the above important aluminum production equipment, there are some frequently used equipment, such as: Nitriding Furnace, Film Laminating Machine, Wrapping Machine, Hot top Casting table. 
  • Extruder and hydraulic system
    Extruder and hydraulic system Jul 30, 2024
      Extrusion oil and cutting fluids are essential components in the aluminum extrusion machine and deep processing of aluminum profiles. With the increasing demand for high-precision metal processing in the manufacturing industry, metalworking fluids are evolving towards being more environmentally friendly, of higher quality, and technologically advanced. For aluminum extrusion machines, which are large-scale equipment, the comprehensive performance requirements of hydraulic oil are very stringent. Poor-quality hydraulic oil can disrupt normal equipment operation, leading to production line stoppages and significantly impacting the economic benefits of the entire workshop.   Just as engine oil is crucial to the functioning of a car, hydraulic oil is vital to the machinery. It is imperative to further reduce the friction coefficient of hydraulic oil, which will enhance the efficiency and stability of the extrusion press.   Our aluminum extrusion machines have very stringent requirements regarding hydraulic oil and hydraulic systems. We use the most advanced hydraulic oil and systems in the industry. The pump station of the extrusion machine features an integrated design, centrally located at the rear bottom of the machine's oil tank. The system uses imported German Rexroth (Bosch Rexroth) electro-hydraulic proportional control axial piston variable pumps and a domestic stainless steel plate-type circulating filtration cooling system. The pipeline system is designed with necessary buffering and anti-vibration measures, such as buffer pads, flexible hoses, or vibration absorbers, and employs flexible rubber joints to absorb vibrations.   Isolation control valves are designed between the oil pump groups to ensure that when two mechanisms need to operate simultaneously according to the program, they do not interfere with each other. The system can achieve pump isolation, no-load start, pressure regulation, and overload protection functions. The pump head electro-hydraulic proportional valve and electronic control device are imported with the main pump and connected to the main control computer of the aluminum extruder, allowing for integrated control.   As one of the most critical components of the Aluminum extrusion machine, Huananmachine ensure the highest quality standards for our hydraulic oil system.

  • Aluminum Extrusion press for prestressed composite frames
    Aluminum Extrusion press for prestressed composite frames Jul 24, 2024
                                                 Aluminum Extrusion press for prestressed composite frames A solid extruder structure is a prerequisite for ensuring the performance of the extruder. After being used for a period of time, many Aluminum extrusion machine become loose, the interfaces age, and the cylinders bend, resulting in deformation and unstable quality during the aluminum extrusion production process. In fact, the main reason is that the extruder as a whole is not strong enough. The stress during the operation of the extruder is very large, and our extruders mostly adopt a prestressed composite frame structure, which is composed of a high-thickness integral front beam, a high-thickness rear beam, and a square prestressed sleeve to form a closed The prestressed composite frame uses a special hydraulic preloading tool to apply an overpressure tensile load to the entire length of the tie rod, and at the same time applies compressive stress to the pressure sleeve, so that the entire frame is in a stress pretightened state, and the tension column prestress is 115% of the maximum load. above. For example, our 7500-ton hydraulic extrusion press has a front beam thickness of 1950mm made of ZG35Mn, a rear beam thickness of 1800mm (material ZG35Mn), and a square pre-applied sleeve (material ZG35). It can make it bear force better, which is also an important reason for the long service life of the extrusion machine.   Other advantages of prestressed composite frames 1. The center distance of the four stressed tie rods of the frame is symmetrical to the center of the press, so that the entire frame is stressed evenly. The main reason why the quality of aluminum materials produced is stable or unstable is whether the force is uniform. Only by maintaining uniform force can the overall density of the aluminum material be uniform, thereby improving the accuracy of extruded products.   2. The prestressed composite frame frame has a larger bending section, which makes the frame elongation and bending deformation smaller under the action of extrusion force. Therefore, the extrusion beam and the lower part of the extrusion tube can be fixed on the lower frame. The horizontal and vertical guide rails are very convenient for centering adjustment between the extrusion beam, extrusion barrel and mold. The upper frame can be used as an X-shaped moving guide rail for the extrusion barrel. On the premise of ensuring the stability of the machinery, the available space is used to reduce the space occupancy of the machinery.   3. There are two sets of elastic anchoring devices and foundation anchors on the lower part of the rear beam to make the rear beam fixed reliably.   After many years of production experience and continuous improvement based on customer feedback, our extrusion press is currently one of the most stable extruders on the Chinese market and one of the longest-lasting Aluminum extrusion machine.
