An aluminum profile aging furnace is a crucial piece of equipment in the aluminum extrusion process.
It serves a vital role in enhancing the final product’s strength, dimensional stability, and corrosion resistance.
The function of the Furnace:
After aluminum profiles are extruded, they undergo a heat treatment process called “aging.”
Inside the aging furnace, profiles are exposed to specific temperatures (typically ranging from 180°C to 200°C) for a set duration (usually 2-4 hours).
This controlled heating allows the internal microstructure of the aluminum alloy to rearrange, leading to:
Increased hardness and tensile strength.
Improved resistance to deformation and warping.
Enhanced corrosion resistance.
The aluminum profile aging furnace is a device in the aluminum profile heat treatment production process, and the extruded aluminum profile needs to make an aging heat treatment before going to the surface treatment process of polishing, anodizing and powder coating.
The aging of aluminum profiles is one of the key processes of heat treatment.
The heating rate and furnace temperature uniformity of this process are strictly required, and the aging temperature of the process is mostly (210±5) °C.
Aging furnace applies to aging-treatment for aluminum profiles to enhance product-hardness, which is conducive to the operation of subsequent processes and storage, transportation, as well as the normal use of customers.
Aging treatment is carried out in the aging furnace. The aging furnace is composed of a furnace body, charging car, hot air system and electrical control.
Design key point of nine baskets gas-fired double door aging furnace
After the hot air is pressurized by the fan impeller and heated at a constant temperature through the air duct, it enters the diversion channel on the end of the feed truck, flows through the aluminum profile, then enters the return duct through the diversion device, and finally returns to the inlet of the fan.
This cycle and constant temperature heating, and is the interval of the reverse cycle, to ensure that the temperature is uniform
