Why can industrial aluminum profiles gradually replace steel profiles

Dec 09, 2021

When it comes to industrial aluminum profiles, we are no strangers. Alloy profiles have been widely used in all walks of life in recent years, even in our daily life. In the mechanical automation industry, why industrial aluminum profiles can gradually replace steel profiles has become the reason why the utilization rate accounts for a large proportion in the mechanical manufacturing industry. Here we take iron material and industrial aluminum profile for comparative analysis.


1. Environmental protection


Now everything we do requires environmental protection and reduce environmental pollution. Industrial aluminum profile is an environmental friendly and green material with high recovery rate. It can be recycled and reused. Iron products materials are not, because iron products will rust after long-term use, with low recovery rate and low recycling rate.


2. Installation


In today's era of high efficiency, we need high efficiency in everything we do. Industrial aluminum profiles are connected with supporting aluminum profile accessories and connectors, which can be free from site restrictions, convenient disassembly and assembly, convenient later expansion and upgrading, and has the title of fast modular assembly system. In addition, the assembly process is clean and sanitary, and does not cause harm to human body. Iron products are generally welded, which is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also requires professional welding workers for construction in the installation process. In the later stage, it is difficult to expand and upgrade them, cause great environmental pollution and low safety factor.


3. Appearance


The surface of industrial aluminum profile is treated with a layer of oxide film, which is anti-corrosion and wear-resistant, not easy to rust, simple maintenance, and has multiple colors to choose, such as silver white, black, gold, etc. Iron products have less color selectivity, are easy to rust after a long time of use, and are inconvenient for maintenance.


4. Usage time


After surface treatment, industrial aluminum profiles are beautiful and durable with long service time. Iron products are easy to rust and difficult to maintain, and their service life is not as long as the former.


5. Scope of use site


Industrial aluminum profiles are suitable for many industrial fields. Profiles have the characteristics of anti-static, and can be used in various production workshops with high requirements for static electricity. Iron products are easy to conduct electricity and are not suitable for all kinds of electronic production workshops.


6. Bearing capacity


Industrial aluminum profiles have multiple specifications and models. Profiles of different specifications and sizes have different sections and load-bearing. Users can select materials according to their needs. The specification series of iron products is not rich enough and has great limitations.
