Aluminum profile extrusion mould is the core tool for aluminum profile forming processing, and its structural design and processing technology directly determine profile quality and production efficiency. Different from low-pressure casting moulds and die casting moulds, extrusion moulds bear strong metal extrusion pressure and friction, putting forward higher requirements on mould hardness and wear resistance. Xinfeng Machinery has rich experience in aluminum profile opening mould customization, covering conventional profiles, special-shaped profiles and industrial aluminum profile mould development.
The core structure of aluminum extrusion mould includes shunt bridge, die hole, working belt and discharge hole. The shunt bridge structure undertakes the task of shunting molten aluminum, and unreasonable design will lead to uneven metal flow and profile distortion. The optimized double-layer shunt bridge structure can evenly distribute metal pressure, ensure consistent forming speed of each profile area, and control product dimensional error within ultra-precision range. In industrial production, unoptimized single-layer shunt bridge moulds have a qualification rate of only 83%, far lower than optimized structural moulds.
The working belt thickness is a key parameter affecting extrusion stability. Too thin working belt will cause profile deformation, while too thick will increase extrusion resistance and consume more energy. Industrial verified data shows that 0.8-1.2mm working belt thickness is the optimal parameter for conventional aluminum profiles, which can balance forming precision and production efficiency. For thin-wall special-shaped profiles, the working belt thickness needs to be finely adjusted according to profile wall thickness.
Surface treatment is an indispensable process for extrusion moulds. High-precision nitriding treatment forms a dense hard layer on the mould surface, which can resist long-term aluminum liquid friction and adhesion, greatly reducing mould wear. Compared with untreated moulds, the service life of treated moulds is increased by 40%, and the number of mould repairs is reduced by 60%. At present, domestic high-quality aluminum profile mould manufacturers all adopt this standardized treatment process.
