Design standards in relation to aluminium alloys
Design standards in relation to aluminium alloys There are some important design standards in relation to aluminium alloys that I think you should know. The first is EN 12020-2. This standard is generally applied for alloys such as 6060, 6063 and, to a lesser extent for 6005 and 6005A if the sha...Read more -
Consider tolerances when designing a product with extruded aluminium
Consider tolerances when designing a product with extruded aluminium A tolerance tells others how important a dimension is to your product. With unnecessary “tight” tolerances, parts become more expensive to produce. But tolerances that are too “loose” might cause the par...Read more -
How to prevent aluminium corrosion?
How to prevent aluminium corrosion? Untreated aluminium has very good corrosion resistance in most environments, but in strongly acid or alkaline environments, aluminium normally corrodes relatively rapidly. Here is a checklist on how you can prevent aluminium corrosion problems. When it is used...Read more -
What you should know about powder coating aluminium
What you should know about powder coating aluminium Powder coating offers an unlimited selection of colors with varied gloss and with very good color consistency. It is by far the most widely used method of painting aluminium profiles. When does it make sense for you? The Earth’s most abundant m...Read more -
How the quality of the aluminium alloy impacts the anodizing quality
How the quality of the aluminium alloy impacts the anodizing quality Aluminium alloys have a big impact on surface treatment. While with spray painting or powder coating, alloys are not a big issue, with anodizing, the alloy has a big impact on the appearance. Here is what you need to know about ...Read more -
What a critical role the aluminum heat sink plays in the solar energy equipment?
What a critical role the aluminum heat sink plays in the solar energy equipment? An inverter is a piece of standalone equipment that converts a DC voltage to an AC voltage. The inverter performs conversion of direct current to an alternating voltage by converting the energy stored in the dc so...Read more -

What is Anodized Aluminum?
What is Anodized Aluminum? Anodized aluminum is aluminum that has been treated to develop an exceptionally durable finish. How to create anodized aluminum? To create anodized aluminum, you use an electrochemical process where the metal is immersed in a series of tanks, wherein one of the tanks,...Read more -
What We Can Do In Aluminum Heat Sink Design To Improve Heat Dissipation Performance?
What We Can Do In Aluminum Heat Sink Design To Improve Heat Dissipation Performance? Designing heat sinks is about optimizing the surface area that is in contact with the coolant fluid, or with the air around it. To improve heat dissipation performance of a heat sink depends on the solution des...Read more -
Why Choose Anodizing As The Surface Treatment Method For The Solar Frame?
Why Choose Anodizing As The Surface Treatment Method For The Solar Frame? We know that there are many surface treatment methods for aluminum alloy profiles, but most of the solar panels use anodizing as the surface treatment method. Why is this? Let’s first understand the advantages of anod...Read more -
