Virat Aluminium

Aluminum plates are flat pieces of aluminum material with uniform thickness. They are widely used in various industries and applications due to aluminum's lightweight, corrosion resistance, and versatility. Aluminum plates can be produced through processes such as rolling, casting, or forging, and they come in a range of thicknesses, widths, and lengths to suit different needs.

Here are some common applications of aluminum plates:

1. Construction: Aluminum plates are used in building construction for structural components, roofing, siding, and decorative elements. They are valued for their lightweight nature, durability, and resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

2. Transportation: Aluminum plates are extensively used in the automotive, aerospace, and marine industries. In automotive applications, they are utilized for body panels, chassis components, and structural reinforcements due to their strength-to-weight ratio, which helps improve fuel efficiency. In aerospace and marine applications, aluminum plates are used for aircraft and shipbuilding structures because of their lightweight properties and resistance to corrosion in marine environments.

3. Machinery and Equipment: Aluminum plates find applications in manufacturing machinery and equipment, where their lightweight yet sturdy characteristics are advantageous. They are used for manufacturing parts and components in industries such as packaging, printing, and industrial automation.

High strength alloys with excellent machinability widely used in aircraft. Have limited formability and only fair corrosion resistance in the heat treated condition. Used for high strength parts in aircraft and machinery, including gears and bolts and for security vans where strength is critical.  

Specific applications include heavy duty forgings, plate, and extrusions for aerospace fittings, wheels, tanks, and major structural components, heavy duty automotive frame and suspension componentry. 2014 exhibits poor corrosion resistance for an aluminium alloy.

A high strength 4 to 5% Copper alloy produced in extruded bar and profile form, in the fully heat-treated condition (solution heat-treated & artificially aged). Normally stocked in the T651 condition (stress relieved by controlled stretching) Except for sizes under 10mm diameter and over 203.2mm diameter. (T6 only). Over 203.mm diameter is manufactured to chemical composition Only.

Machinability of aluminium alloy 2014A is very good.

Typical applications of aluminium alloy 2014A are high strength components especially for use in the aerospace and defence industries.

Aluminium alloy 6082 is a medium strength alloy with excellent corrosion resistance. It has the highest strength of the 6000 series alloys. Alloy 6082 is known as a structural alloy. In plate form, 6082 is the alloy most commonly used for machining. As a relatively new alloy, the higher strength of 6082 has seen it replace 6061 in many applications. The addition of a large amount of manganese controls the grain structure which in turn results in a stronger alloy.

It is difficult to produce thin walled, complicated extrusion shapes in alloy 6082. The extruded surface finish is not as smooth as other similar strength alloys in the 6000 series.

In the T6 and T651 temper, alloy 6082 machines well and produces tight coils of swarf when chip breakers are used.

It is typically formed by extrusion and rolling, but as a wrought alloy it is not used in casting. It can also be forged and clad, but that is not common practice with this alloy. It cannot be work hardened , but is commonly heat treated to produce tempers with a higher strength but lower ductility.
