Aluminum mold products: a "green innovation" in the metal aluminum industry"

Aluminum and aluminum alloy is one of the most widely used and most economical materials. The world's aluminum production from 1956 began to exceed copper production has been ranked first in non-ferrous metals. The current production and consumption of aluminum (in tons) is second only to steel, becoming the second largest metal for human applications.

In recent years, the non-ferrous metal industry as a whole is facing difficulties such as overcapacity and poor downstream demand. According to the survey, electrolytic aluminum is the product with the most serious overcapacity in the industry. It is precisely because of this aluminum products industry will continue to develop new applications, aluminum template is one of them. Aluminum formwork, also known as aluminum alloy formwork, is a building formwork made of aluminum alloy, which solves the defects of traditional formwork in the past and greatly improves the construction efficiency.

Specifically, aluminum mold has the following advantages: first, as we all know, the density of aluminum is lower, the weight of products with the same volume is lighter, and the aluminum mold with different elements has the characteristics of higher rigidity, so that the aluminum mold has lower cost and higher plasticity in the construction process; secondly, because the aluminum mold has lower cost and better plasticity, its specifications are more than other types of molds, suitable for the construction of standard floors, etc.; Thirdly, the aluminum mold overcomes the difficulties of installing and dismantling the traditional formwork and does not rely on formwork technicians with long-term experience, thus effectively saving the construction cost. Fourth, the formwork system made of aluminum with wide application range, strong bearing capacity and precise design is suitable for all building components, such as load-bearing walls, columns, beams, floors, stairs, balconies, etc, all can be completed by cement casting. The most important point is that aluminum molds have environmental protection characteristics. An industry insider said: aluminum molds are recycled more times, so the single cost is lower than other strong molds. More importantly, all parts of aluminum molds can be reused, overcoming the disadvantages that only some parts can be used for wood molds. According to incomplete statistics: in the process of normal use and standardized construction, aluminum formwork can be recycled more than 300 times, while wood formwork has only a few times of turnover and steel formwork has only dozens of turnover possibilities. Furthermore, the recovery rate is high, and no construction waste is generated. The installation of aluminum formwork does not require the use of nails, chainsaws and other accessories, which ensures the safety of construction while avoiding the generation of construction waste, and fully meets the construction standards of green buildings.

In recent years, with the rapid development of China's real estate, construction and other industries, the advantages of aluminum mold has been explored by the industry, and put into use, and continue to study how to increase its service life, so that its surface to maintain a certain degree of gloss, etc., in this regard has made some progress. For example: the development of surface coating, nickel plating and other processes.

It is worth noting that the development of any industry inevitably has certain problems and difficulties, and there are also corresponding problems in the development of aluminum molds, such as: people's use of concepts, market acceptance, high first input costs, etc., But this does not become an obstacle to its development, in the face of these problems, enterprises must do in-depth and meticulous work in strengthening publicity, transforming ideas, and conforming to the development of the situation. Only in this way can we promote a "green innovation" in the mold industry ".
