Manufacturing Process
Our automotive aluminum plates are manufactured through a meticulous process to ensure quality and consistency:
- Melting: High-grade aluminum ingots are melted in a controlled environment.
- Casting: The molten aluminum is cast into ingots or billets.
- Hot Rolling: The ingots are hot rolled to achieve the desired thickness.
- Annealing: The aluminum is annealed to enhance its ductility and strength.
- Cold Rolling: Further rolling under cold conditions refines the thickness and surface finish.
- Heat Treatment: Depending on the alloy, a specific heat treatment may be applied to achieve optimal mechanical properties.
- Quality Control: Rigorous inspections and tests are conducted to ensure compliance with international standards.
