What conditions are more suitable for aluminum sheet storage？

First, to ensure storage environment must be in a ventilated, dry environment storage, known to belong to the non-ferrous metal aluminum sheet, will produce oxidation reflect the future, if in contact with water, so it destroyed the surface, resulting in surface quality is affected, so a drying The environment is the basic condition for storing aluminum sheet.

Sealing performance package, usually aluminum sheet at the factory will take waterproof packaging, packaging that has the preservative, it is recommended that users do not destroy the packaging, the package is suitable for long-term storage use. If you have certain conditions, then you can talk after use The aluminum sheet was also true of the packaging.

aluminum sheet is mainly used in metal wall side, and therefore the metal walls of the aluminum sheet curtain has accounted for a dominant position in the metal walls, light, reducing the load of the building, high-rise building offers a good selection conditions; waterproof, anti-pollution, anti- excellent corrosion resistance, to ensure that the building exterior surface lasting Changxin; processing, transportation, installation and construction are all relatively easy to implement, its widely used to provide strong support; diversity of colors can be combined and processed into different external shape, expand architects design space; high performance and low cost, easy to maintain, with a long service life, fully meet the market requirements and therefore, the aluminum sheet curtain wall as an architectural form high-impact, fully received by the marketing recognition.

6061 aluminum plate superior performance

6061 aluminum plate belong to 6XXX serise alloy aluminum , the main alloying elements are magnesium and silicon. Products with moderate strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability, oxidation is better, is widely used in trucks, tower buildings, ships, trams, rail vehicles with a certain strength and high corrosion resistance of industrial structure, such as manufacturing and so on.

From the production process point of view, from 6061 alloy semi-continuous casting, homogenization, sawing, milling surface, clad, heating, hot rolling, annealing, cold rolling, annealing, cold rolling, solution treatment, aging treatment, to cut cutting, leveling, inspection, oiled packaging of this series of process, constitute a complete production step 6061 aluminum sheet .

6061 aluminum production process has been very mature now, at present, the domestic production of the factory in 6061 alloy have dozens, while Detect-Metals is one representative leader.

why pattern aluminum appears bleaching?

Some construction units to deceive the owners to indoor plate posing aging, corrosion-resistant high-quality fluorocarbon plate, get unreasonable profit, thus forming aluminum used on the project presented serious discoloration, discoloration.

As we all know about pattern aluminum , when purchase pattern aluminum, we often see discoloration,bleaching, how did it happened ? Let's Technical department to explain it. Striped aluminum discoloration, bleaching, mainly because of the formation of the plate inappropriate choice.

Aluminum plate with a plate divided into indoor and outdoor panels, outer coating two plates are not the same, determines its application is not the same situation. Interior plate used, and its appearance is usually sprayed resin coating, this coating habit not outdoor harsh natural environment, if used in outdoor, nature will accelerate the aging process, causing the appearance of discoloration decolorization outdoor outer coating aluminum composite panel is usually used anti-aging, anti-ultraviolet light to strong bomb grease coated polyvinyl fluoride layer, the price of this sheet is expensive.

What is Aluminum Coils？

Aluminum coils by rolling after casting machine, pull the corners processing, For the shears metal commodities.

How many types does aluminum coils have?

Aluminum coils are widely used in electronics, packaging, construction, machinery, etc., Chinese aluminum coil production company more prosperous country has caught up the production process, on the basis of aluminum coil aluminum coil aluminum-rich metallic element is not the same, aluminum coil can roughly divide for the nine categories, that is capable of sub-nine series, the following about the gradual introduction:

1, the 1000 series: the representative of 1,050,106,010,701,000 series aluminum is also known as pure aluminum, in all series, 1000 series aluminum content attributed most of a series.

2, the 2000 series aluminum sheet: representative of 2A16 (LY16) 2A06 (LY6) 2000 series aluminum is characterized by high hardness, during which the copper-origin content, about 3-5% or so.

3, the 3000 series aluminum sheet: representative of the main 3003 3003 3A21. It can be called anti-rust aluminum China 3000 series aluminum production process is more excellent.

4, the 4000 series aluminum: representatives 4A01 4000 series aluminum attributed to higher silicon content.

5, the 5000 series: the representative 5052.5005.5083.5A05 series.

6, the 6000 series: 6061 on behalf of the first two elements are rich in magnesium and silicon, it is focused on the 4000 series and 5000 series of the strengths of 6061, a cold finished aluminum casting goods for opposition corrosion, oxidation and demanding applications.

7, 7000: 7075 on behalf of the primary zinc-rich

8, 8000 Series: more commonly attributed to other series for 8011

9, 9000: attributed to spare series, science and technology is now so prosperous, in order to respond to other alloying elements aluminum-rich presentation, the International Federation of special aluminum strip marked 9000 as the backup series, waiting for another new species to fill the 9000 presentation series blank.

Aluminum surface treatment on problem solving approach

Use aluminum plate quality is not very good, too many impurities will be mixed inside take peeling in aluminum plate,the aluminum sheet after shot blasting treatment, the aluminum oxide layer above will be destroyed. Can not handle very clean, remained part of the oxide layer on top of.

Shot in order to make work further compaction, usually every square centimeter of power by force of 3 kg around, if  itself die-casting have quality problems, such as pores, bubbles, cold shut, playing in real time will be blasting produce peeling phenomenon, which is the same concept of non-casting from the peeling to separate.

Of the above questions is currently no effective method, you can learn basic processing pathways:

1, will be  improve the quality of the work piece;

2, lower pressure blasting;

3 Shot from the skin site to be polished, such as sanding the bottom of the problem, you can re-throw.
