Revealing the Production Steps of Aluminum Plate

For many people, they don't know how aluminum plates are produced. Today, let Shanghai Lvmeng Aluminum Industry Co., Ltd. reveal the production steps of aluminum plates, making the aluminum plate production process no longer mysterious and solving the mystery in your heart.

Firstly, it is the production of raw materials. Both products are processed from raw materials, and the raw material of aluminum plates is aluminum ingots. Usually, the aluminum ingots are heated and melted into aluminum water, and then the liquid aluminum water is put into a continuous casting and rolling machine. The aluminum water is rolled into casting and rolling coils through a casting mill, and the thickness of the casting and rolling coils is usually between 8-10mm. This is the first step in aluminum plate production, and we become the production billets, Of course, many enterprises now adopt the method of directly purchasing cast rolled coils, which can actually reduce costs.

Then the precision rolling process is carried out by the finishing mill. Usually, the rolling accuracy of the finishing mill can be controlled within 0.01mm. Of course, the finishing mill mentioned here is a new type of rolling mill rather than an outdated equipment that was phased out in the 1990s. The finishing mill repeatedly rolls the cast roll to the required thickness, which is the second and most important step in aluminum plate production.

Next, it is necessary to perform edge cutting and cleaning processing on the rolled coil. Edge cutting refers to cutting the unpopular edges after rolling, while cleaning is because the finishing mill rolls the billet in the rolling oil, so the surface oil stains must be cleaned.

Finally, there is annealing, as well as flattening and packaging. Annealing involves placing the aluminum plate in a constant temperature annealing furnace for a period of time to obtain various mechanical properties and elongation rates by changing the internal grain size of the aluminum plate at high temperatures. After annealing, it is necessary to use flattening equipment for flattening processing, and then carry out various packaging. Most enterprises produce aluminum plates through the above general steps.
