Extrusions PROCESSING
ALUMINIUM A MATERIAL WITH A FUTURE Today aluminium extrusion components are used to produce a wide range of practical objects. The combination of low weight, extreme strength and durability, flexibility in reshaping and ease of processing are just some of the benefits of this modern material. Innovative shaping often reduces complicated processing and the need for cost intensive assembly work. Compared with alternative materials such as steel or plastic, especially when considering its long life expectancy, aluminium often proves to be the solution that makes the most financial and environmental sense. AL says: The material with a future! BENEFITS OF ALUMINIUM +Low + weight (1/3 of the weight of steel) + + Excellent material strength + + Corrosion resistant + + High class appearance + + Easily reshaped + + Easily processed + + Extremely long life expectancy + + Reflects light + + Good thermal conductor + + Good electrical conductor +Environmentally + friendly and recyclable 2

6 WE CAN DO WHAT OTHERS CAN T
Tolerance levels Minimum wall thickness Profile weight / Metre Alloys +/- 0.05 mm 0.4 mm from 40 g 3000, 6000 series, shiny alloys, special alloys if desired PRECISION TO THE SMALLEST DETAIL LEAN specialises in micro-profiles and precision profiles with exactly calculated tolerances for minimised wall thicknesses, and for decorative elements requiring excellent surface quality. AL says: They do what others can t! 7
COMPETITORS 1.2 mm Material use 367 g/metre ALUMERO 0.9 mm Material use 286 g/metre SAVING 22 % WALL THICKNESS OPTIMISATION POLISHING MECHANICAL PROCESSING SAVE, SAVE, SAVE. LEAN is one of the most productive and effective manufacturers of thin-wall aluminium profile extrusions around. Our expertise enables us to manufacture aluminium extrusions with wall thicknesses of less than 1 mm. In the example above you can save 22%! Highly attractive surfaces can only be achieved with the latest extrusion technology that minimises the need for further intensive processing methods such as polishing and micropolishing. LEAN surfaces and special alloys guarantee perfect results with a minimum of post production treatment so that you save time and money! Don t accept the tolerances other extrusion plants provide! LEAN adapts tolerance levels to structural requirements, because we can do things others can t. LEAN precision profiles with strictly limited tolerance values often remove the need for expensive post production processes. Cost optimisation begins with cleverly devised construction solutions. WE HAVE THE KNOW-HOW AND YOU BENEFIT Simply aiming to offer the lowest price contradicts the goal of providing quality and limits the creative scope of developers and constructors. LEAN generates saving potential via technology without limiting the possibilities and creativity of developers and constructors. 8
LEAN SHINY ALLOYS: WHEN IT SIMPLY HAS TO LOOK GREAT LEAN shiny alloys have long since become established in the production of components for design-driven sectors such as bathrooms design, furniture accessories and consumer electronics. Such special alloys are used for decorative trims by nearly all the main car makers. Shiny alloy extrusions display far fewer faults than standard alloys. Ceramic impurities can be almost completely avoided when melting down and pouring into cylindrical bar casts. Special pressing parameters are necessary during the extrusion process. This guarantees the subsequent polishing, shining and anodisation of decorative features achieves the best possible results. 9

Modern twinchamber melting furnaces, one dry hearth-type furnace with an electromagnetic stirrer and a tiltable rotary furnace offer excellent technological opportunities. We cast all diameters without exception, using Wagstaff AirSlip technology. Where necessary, a 100% ultrasonic inspection can be performed with a 9-head helical ultrasonic testing plant. Strategic concepts, supply- and quality assurance accompany our casting processes, including the recycling of aluminum scrap, sampling and processing of the scrap, melting, casting and homogenization as well as a 100% ultrasonic inspection. Skill in one cast: Expect more! Professionalism in a string: Expect more! Processing During processing, Hammerer Aluminium Industries offers customers a great advantage by providing precise craftsmanship for all products. Our competences not only include sawing, drilling, milling, bending, punching and cleaning but also welding aluminium. Here, standard welding techniques such as TIG and MIG as well as innovations such as CMT and FSW are used. Items as large as 20 x 4 x 1.6 metres can be handled during the finishing stages. Furthermore, we are able to manufacture components in their entirety. Thanks to our investments in processing, we were able to create a continuous manufacturing chain, from casting to refining.
