Use and classification of aluminum plate




Today we will understand the application and use of aluminum plate and so on!


What is aluminum plate:


Aluminum plate is the thickness of 0.2mm above to 500mm below,200mm width above, length of 16m aluminum material called aluminum plate or aluminum sheet,0.2mm below for aluminum,200mm width within the row or strip (of course, with the progress of large equipment, the widest can do 600mm aluminum plate is also more).


Classification of aluminum plate:


Aluminum plate is a rectangular plate rolled and processed with aluminum ingot, which is divided into pure aluminum plate, alloy aluminum plate, thin aluminum plate, medium thickness aluminum plate and decorative aluminum plate.


1. By alloy composition:


High purity aluminum plate (made of high purity aluminum with a content of 99.9 or more)


Pure aluminum plate (basically rolled from pure aluminum)


Alloy aluminum plate (composed of aluminum and auxiliary alloys, usually aluminum copper, aluminum manganese, aluminum silicon, aluminum magnesium, etc.)


Composite aluminum plate or brazing plate (special purpose aluminum plate material obtained by means of composite of multiple materials)


Aluminum coated aluminum plate (aluminum plate coated with thin aluminum plate for special purposes)


2. By thickness :(in mm)


aluminum sheet 0.15-2.0


Conventional aluminum sheet 2.0-6.0


aluminum plate 6.0-25.0


aluminum plate 25-200 super thick plate more than 200


Use of aluminum sheet:


Aluminum sheet is widely used in aviation, aerospace, construction, transportation, electronics, chemical industry, light industry, household, machinery manufacturing and other fields.






In architecture, it is often used in curtain wall, roof, ceiling and other decorative and structural components. In aviation and aerospace, aluminum plates are often used in the production of aircraft, rockets, satellites and other manufacturing. In electronics, aluminum sheets are used in the manufacturing of electronics casings and heat sinks. In machinery manufacturing, aluminum plates are used to manufacture components such as machine tools and molds


Aluminum plate is a very common metal material, its main characteristics are light, easy to process, high strength, corrosion resistance and so on. It plays an important role in various industries and has a wide range of uses. Here are some common uses of aluminum plates.


1. Construction Industry


Aluminum panels are widely used in the construction industry, mainly for building exterior walls, interior decoration, roof coverage, door and window frames, ceilings and other aspects. The advantage of aluminum plate is its light weight, easy handling and installation. At the same time, it also has very good sound insulation, heat insulation, durability and other properties, can greatly improve the service life of the building.


2. Vehicle manufacturing


Aluminum plates are also widely used in vehicle manufacturing. It can be used to manufacture automobile frame, body shell, wheel hub and so on. Compared with traditional steel bodies, aluminum bodies are lighter, which can reduce the overall weight of the vehicle and improve fuel efficiency. At the same time, the aluminum plate also has good strength and heat resistance, which can ensure the stable operation of the vehicle in various harsh environments.


3. Shipbuilding industry


Aluminum plate also has a very important use in shipbuilding. It can be used in the manufacture of hull and cabin structures, because the aluminum plate has good corrosion resistance, so it can be used in the Marine environment for a long time. In addition, compared with the traditional steel hull, the aluminum plate made of the ship is lighter, faster, can save fuel costs.


4. Medical device manufacturing


Aluminum plates also have many uses in medical equipment manufacturing, such as surgical instruments, infusion bottles and so on. The instrument made of aluminum plate has good anti-corrosion performance and easy cleaning characteristics, which can ensure the health and safety in the medical process.


5. Electronics industry


Aluminum plates also have important applications in the electronics industry. It can be used to manufacture enclosures, heaters, radiators, etc., for electronic products. In the high temperature and high pressure working environment, the electronic products made of aluminum plate are very stable, which can ensure the long-term service life of electronic products.


In addition to the above fields, aluminum plates can also be used in aerospace manufacturing, advertising industry, household appliances manufacturing and other aspects. It can be said that aluminum plate has become one of the indispensable and important materials in modern industrial production.


Care and maintenance


The specific cleaning steps of aluminum plate are as follows:


1. Rinse the surface of the board with plenty of water first;


2. Use a soft cloth soaked in water diluted detergent to gently wipe the surface of the board;


3. Rinse the board with a lot of water to wash away the dirt;


4. Check the surface of the board and focus on cleaning the places that are not cleaned with detergent;


5. Rinse the board with water until all the detergent is washed away.


Note: Do not clean the hot board surface (temperature over 40 °C), because the rapid evaporation of water is harmful to the board baking paint!


In particular, please choose the right detergent. A basic principle is: be sure to choose neutral detergent! Do not use strong alkaline detergents such as potassium HYDROXIDE, SODIUM hydroxide or sodium carbonate, strong acid detergents, abrasive detergents and paint dissolving detergents.
