The 1 inch wide aluminum strips is made of aluminum coils through slitting. We usually choose aluminum coils with a width of 1000-1500 mm as the base material processed through one or more passes of slitting. The production of 1inch aluminum strip includes several processes such as material selection, arranging knives, slitting , winding, and packing.
1. The selection of aluminum strip: According to the material, thickness and width required by the order, select the appropriate aluminum coil as the base material. It should be noted that the proper width should be selected according to the width of the finished aluminum strip to avoid waste. At the same time, it is necessary to reserve 5 mm as the edge.
2. Knife arranging: Arrange the knives of the slitting equipment according to the width of the aluminum strip. It has high requirements for the equipment and the operator. The knives directly determine the precision range of the aluminum metal strips cutting.
3. Slitting: After the knives are arranged, the slitting can be carried out. We also should check if the aluminum coil is scratched or oily. At the same time, the machine should promptly clean up aluminum chips and residues to avoid scratches during the slitting process.
4. Rewinding: Rewinding and slitting are carried out at the same time. The diameter of the sleeve should be selected according to the inner and outer diameter requirements of the user's order.
5. Packaging: The packaging of 1 inch wide aluminum strips can be divided into refined packaging and simple packaging. The refined packaging is wound with oil paper, while the simple packaging is directly wound with stretch film.
