Name plate in metal production materials

Aluminum

Aluminum is a silver-white light metal with strong ductility and plasticity, a relative density of 2.7, a melting point of 660°C, a boiling point of 2327°C, and high temperature and weather resistance. At the same time, aluminum is the most abundant metal element in the earth’s crust. Not only is light in weight, but also has good electrical and thermal conductivity, high reflectivity and oxidation resistance. The content of aluminum in the crust is second only to oxygen and silicon, ranking third, and is the most abundant metal element in the crust. The development of the three important industries of aviation, construction, and automobiles requires the characteristics of materials to have the unique properties of aluminum and its alloys, which greatly facilitates the production and application of this new metal aluminum. The application is extremely wide.The main aluminum alloy grades are: 6063, 6061, 6082, 7075, etc.

Stainless steel

As the name implies, it is steel that is not easy to rust, but there are also some stainless steels that are not only rust-proof, but also have acid resistance (corrosion resistance). Stainless steel not only has a smooth surface and is not easy to accumulate dirt, but it is also easy to clean and will not rust. At the same time, it has good corrosion resistance and is more durable than ordinary steel; it is also resistant to high temperature oxidation. In addition, when processed at room temperature, stainless steel has good plasticity and welding performance. The main stainless steel models are: SUS310S, 309S, 316L, 316, 304, 304L, 309, 305, 314, 303, 321, 301, 202, 201, etc.;

Nickel

Pure nickel is a silver-white metal. Because of its good corrosion resistance, welding performance and processing plasticity, nickel is widely used in chemicals, machinery, etc.;

Copper
Acrylic
PVC
PET
PC

Metal nameplate stamping machine

Characteristics of different series of aluminum materials:

1100

1100?is used for processing parts that require good formability and high corrosion resistance but do not require high strength, such as chemical products, food industry equipment and storage containers, thin plate processing parts, deep drawing or spinning concave vessels, Welding parts, heat exchangers, printed boards, nameplate in metals, reflectors

5052

5052?is the most representative alloy with medium strength. It has good corrosion resistance, weldability and formability, especially high fatigue strength and good seawater resistance. Used to manufacture aircraft fuel tanks, fuel pipes, as well as sheet metal parts of transportation vehicles and ships, instruments, street lamp brackets and rivets, hardware products(metal logo), etc.

5083

5083?Alloy for welding structure. It is the highest strength corrosion-resistant alloy among practical non-heat-treated alloys, suitable for welding structure. Seawater resistance and good low-temperature characteristics Ships, vehicles, low-temperature vessels, pressure vessels

6061

6061?Heat-treated corrosion-resistant alloy. T6 treatment can have a very high endurance value, but the strength of the welding interface is low, so it is suitable for screws, anchors, ships, vehicles, and land structures

6063

6063?is a representative extrusion alloy with lower strength than 6061, good extrudability, and can be used as shapes with complex cross-sections, with good corrosion resistance and surface treatment. Construction, highway guardrails, high fences, vehicles, furniture, Home appliances, decorations

7072

7072?Low electrode potential, mainly used for anti-corrosion covering skins, and also suitable for heat sinks of heat exchangers. Aluminum alloy composite board leather, heat sink, air conditioner aluminum foil and ultra-thin strip

7075

7075?aluminum alloy is one of the highest strength alloys, but its corrosion resistance is not good. The covering skin with 7072 can improve its corrosion resistance, but the cost is higher. Suitable for aircraft, ski poles, thick plates and forged products

Various states of aluminum and aluminum alloys

Codename

F×× is: free processing state

O×× is: annealed state

H×× is: work hardened state

W×× is: solid solution heat treatment state

T×× is: heat treatment state (different from F, O, H state)

*H××hardened subdivision state:

The first digit after H indicates: the basic processing procedure to obtain this state, as shown below.

H1: Simple work hardening state

H2: Work hardened and incompletely annealed state

H3: State of work hardening and stabilization

H4: State of work hardening and painting treatment

The second digit after H: indicates the degree of work hardening of the product. For example: 0-9 means the degree of work hardening is getting harder and harder.
