The difference between aluminum alloy and aluminum plate

1, alloy composition is different: aluminum plate is made of aluminum, which can be divided into pure aluminum plate, alloy aluminum plate, composite aluminum plate and aluminum-clad aluminum plate according to alloy composition, and can also be divided into conventional plate, medium plate, thick plate and thin plate according to size. Aluminum plate refers to pure aluminum plate. Aluminum alloy sheet is an aluminum profile with aluminum as the main raw material and copper, magnesium, zinc and other metals.

2. Different application fields: aluminum plates are mainly used in household appliances, mold manufacturing, ship plates, etc. , and aluminum alloy sheet is mainly used in industrial profiles, widely used in aerospace, rail transit, electronic appliances and other fields.

3. Different concepts: aluminum alloy is the most widely used non-ferrous metal structural material in industry. Aluminum plate refers to a rectangular plate rolled from aluminum ingots.

Matters needing attention in the use of aluminum plate:

1. Handling of aluminum plate: When handling the plate, the four edges of the plate should be lifted at the same time, and it is forbidden to push, pull or pull it out to avoid scratching the plate surface.

2. Slotting aluminum plate: When slotting with slotting machine or gong machine, use a milling cutter with a semicircular head greater than 90 degrees. When cutting, don't hurt the aluminum plate too deeply, and don't fold the edge too shallow to cause difficulties. Leave 0.2-0.3MM thick plastic core material to bend with aluminum plate to increase strength and toughness, otherwise the aluminum plate may break or the paint film will burst when bending.

3. Edge bending of aluminum plate: the edge bending should be uniform and formed at one time. Don't bend it repeatedly, or the aluminum plate may break.

4. Arc machining of aluminum plate: special bending equipment should be used to process the arc, and the force should be applied slowly to make the plate gradually reach the required curved surface, and one-time bending is not allowed.
