GOOD FUTURE PROSPECTS FOR ALUMINIUM EXTRUSION PLANT

 

Extrusion is a process equally suitable for the simplest shapes and for the most complex for the wide range of large and the small items for structural members or for decorative trim. Some sections produced by extrusion cannot be made by other process economically. The two main advantages of this process over other manufacturing processes are its ability to create very complex cross sections and work materials that are brittle, because the material only encounters compressive and shear stresses. It also forms finished parts with an excellent surface finish. Aluminium sections made by the extrusion process offer many advantages.

The aluminium industry can be categorized into two principal segments. The key segment is the production of primary aluminium by integrated producers engaged in the entire value chain from the mining of bauxite in an alumina refinery, and conversion of alumina into primary aluminium metal. The second principal segment consists of secondary/downstream producers who are engaged in the manufacture of value added semi fabricated aluminium products such as rolled products, extrusions and foils.     

The cost of an extruded aluminium sections depends on many factors such as alloy, temperature, overall size, weight per meter, complexity of design, quantity and tolerance requirements. As a general rule the cost per meter of an extrusion increase where high strength alloys are used and it decreased in range that designers have its yet fully exploit the possibilities of sections made in this way. The extrusions segment is the preserve of the secondary producers with nearly 40 players, such as Jindal Aluminium, Century Aluminium, Sudal Industries, Bihar Extrusions and Bhoruka Aluminium, which account for over 80 per cent of the aggregate production capacity of tonnes. Primary aluminium producers such as Indal, Hindalco, Balco and Malco account for the remaining of production capacity………………………..
