Where are the mainly application of industrial aluminium profile?2018-05-12T11:18:51+00:00

Industrial aluminium profile with simple and easy assembly is widely used in equipment rack/crate, protective fence, robot fence, workshop partition, production line framework, shelves, exhibition display rack etc. Please visit Application to see visual case pictures.

What’s the key features of T-slot aluminium profile systems?2018-05-12T10:56:42+00:00

Three Key Features of Hoonly Industrial T-slot Aluminium Profile systems:

  • Building blocks with standard aluminium profiles, fasteners, and accessories, connect without machining the profile and it’s very easy to cut to length and assembly.
  • Cost optimization. Low-cost standard connector and profile, no-drill connector for processing cost, no design costs, but universal connector for versatile strength.
  • Fixing slots on one side, two sides, three sides and all sides and flexible connectors & accessories. From the simplest of framework or mechanisms to high precision machine building with X, Y and Z axes, a wide range of automation products are available.
What’s the Difference Between Aluminium Alloy & Magnesium Alloy?2021-11-09T10:57:44+00:00

They are compared to the properties of tensile strength, fatigue strength, resistance to oxidation, manufacturing cost, density and elastic modulus:

1. Tensile Strength
Aluminium Alloy’s tensile strength is 230 Mpa, Magnesium Alloy is 220 Mpa. The same volume of magnesium alloy material is not as strong as aluminum alloy.

2. Fatigue Strength
In 5×10cyc, Aluminium Alloy’s fatigue strength index is 80 Mpa, Magnesium Alloy is 60 Mpa.

3. Resistance to Oxidation
The oxidation resistance of aluminum alloy is higher than that of magnesium alloy.

4. Manufacturing Cost
Because magnesium alloy is active metal, manufacturing equipment and environment have higher requirements, resulting in high manufacturing cost.

The melting point of the magnesium alloy is lower than that of aluminum alloy. The tensile strength of magnesium alloy castings is similar to that of aluminum alloy castings, which can reach up to 250 Mpa and up to 600 Mpa. Yield strength, elongation and aluminum alloy are not very different.

What other value added service you could provide (E.g. powder coating, sand blasting, hole drilling etc.)?2018-05-12T11:05:18+00:00

Powder coating and sandblasting belong to surface treatment, equivalent of anodizing. (Different surface treatment, different price). However, like cutting, drilling and tapping, it belongs to basis free service.

What is Industrial Aluminium Profile?2018-07-18T12:53:18+00:00

Industrial Aluminium Profile, or Aluminium Profile System, other aliases as Industrial Aluminium Extrusion and Industrial Profiles Extrusion, which is alloy material composed mainly of aluminium. The aluminium rods are hot-melt and extruded to obtain different cross-sectional shapes. However, an added different alloy composition determines the difference between mechanical capacity and application fields of the extruded aluminium profiles.

What is anodized aluminum with sand blasting process?2021-11-09T10:59:52+00:00

Sandblasting is one of the surface treatment of aluminum profile

Sandblasting is to use compressed air as the power to form a high-speed jet beam, spraying the abrasive (steel sand, brown corundum, glass beads, emery, etc.) to the surface of the workpiece to be processed at high speed.

Due to the impact and cutting action of sand, the workpiece surface has a certain degree of cleanliness and different roughness.

Benefits of sandblasting aluminum

The mechanical properties of the aluminum profile surface were improved after sandblasting. It improves the fatigue resistance of aluminum profile, increases the adhesion between it and the coating, prolongs the durability of the coating, and also beneficial to the flow of paint and decoration.

What do SMM & LME stand for and why are they important to me?2020-06-16T07:16:32+00:00

SMM is an acronym for Shanghai Metals Market, and LME is an acronym for London Metals Exchange.

SMM (Click to SMM) founded in 1999 as a Chinese metals market research company, Shanghai Metals Market have been publishing the daily assessment spot prices (SMM Price) for over 100 base metals, precious metals, minor metals, recycled metals, metal powders, compounds, semis, alloys, and rare earths for over 10 years. SMM’s Shanghai Nonferrous Metals Price Index (SMMI) accurately tracks the overall situation in China’s nonferrous metals market.

LME (Click to LME) is the futures exchange with the world’s largest market in options and futures contracts on base and other metals, By definition it is a major London trading facility formed in 1877 that currently trades futures and option contracts for six major metals: aluminum, copper, lead, nickel, tin, and zinc.

It is important to large Aluminum users for watching trends in market pricing and potentially locking up futures contracts to secure firm pricing.

What are the advantages of T-slot Aluminium Profile System?2018-09-12T14:10:40+00:00

Hoonly Modular T-slot aluminium profile system has applied to machine building, aluminium framework, automation industrial, material handling, belt conveyor system and machine safety guarding and enclosures. Modular aluminium structures offer high flexibility and functionality combined with visual appeal and cleanliness of anodized surface (Both silver and black colors are optional).

T-slot aluminium profiles offer several benefits

The shape of the profile creates modularity, meaning it is easily assembled and reassembled to conform to evolving needs.
The T-slot also provides the ability to add connections and join profiles to captive ends. This allows you to change your design without having to start from scratch and also enables easy expansion and retraction of your build for modifications down the road.

The T-slot profile concept is designed to allow movement while staying secure within the T-slot.

Moving on from the T-slot concept, let’s consider the benefits of aluminum. There are several advantages to T-slot aluminum profiles. Some of the biggest are:

  • Strong
  • Lightweight
  • High strength-to-weight ratio
  • Resilient
  • Modularity
  • Easily machined
Simple Introduction of Customized Aluminum Profile Process2018-11-10T05:56:54+00:00
    1. Understand the product parameters in detail according to the usage requirements. Such as specification, size, mechanical property, and morphological structure (product specification, size, and structure difficulty will directly affect the cost input of customization);
    2. According to the above understanding, technicians start to issue design drawings, as well as technical parameters;
    3. Both parties confirm the drawing and seal (Take this as the standard that examines profile dimension); 
    4. Development of die (The dies are an important part of aluminum profile production, which determines the structural shape of the profile), detection of tool precision (The dies design precision control scope ±0.02 mm); 
    5. According to the developed die, the sample is extruded and confirmed. After approval of the sample, the mass production can be carried out.
