How to Choose High-quality Aluminum Plate？
What is Aluminum Plate?
Aluminium Plate is highly resistant to corrosion, very ductile and has a reflective finish. It is roughly 1/3 the weight of mild steel, so that it is ideal for general sheet metal work where moderate strength is required but weight is an issue. Aluminum plate is straightforward to form or bend using hand tools or a bending brake. It also can be cut using a jigsaw with the correct blade, on a guillotine. Aluminum plate can be used for a wide range of applications from tooling plate, structural, general engineering, transport, agricultural, architectural, truck bodies, trailer parts ship and boat building.
How about an excellent aluminum plate?
Light (it's approximately 1/3 the weight of iron and copper)
Ductile (it's easy to work into new shapes and can undergo specific treatments)
Conductive (it has a higher thermal and electrical conductivity)
Resistant to corrosion (this characteristic can be improved with special coatings)
First, look at the thickness. The thickness, strength and oxide film thickness of high-quality plates should meet the national standards: aluminum plate thickness ≥ 1.2mm, tensile strength ≥ 157N/mm2, yield strength ≥ 108N/mm2, oxide film thickness ≥ 10 microns. If it does not meet specification, it is a defective board.
Second, look at processing. The plates produced by ordinary large-scale factories are exquisite in material, bright in surface, flat and free of oil stains, scratches, breaks and other defects in appearance; Uneven, substandard performance, poor quality.
Third, look at the price. Aluminum plates are divided into two types: pure aluminum and alloys, and their prices will naturally vary. The processing cost of aluminum plates produced by ordinary manufacturers is several thousand yuan per ton, and the price of alloys is higher than that of pure aluminum. When a business is making an acquisition, it should not be compared to price alone. If you buy a substandard product, it will be too late to regret it.
Fourth, look at the service. From the manufacturer's production line to the enterprise workshop, the center has to go through multiple links such as packaging, loading, transportation, warehousing, and unpacking. Defects such as oxidation and scratches will inevitably appear on the aluminum plate. Large, efficient suppliers will provide good service to users. Provide users with return and exchange services, and solve problems.
