What is Profile?

Profiles refer to long strips of material with a specific shape and size, which are widely used in various fields. It is through extrusion, rolling and other processing processes, metals, plastics and other raw materials are made into products with fixed cross-section shape. Common profiles are aluminum alloy profiles, steel profiles, plastic profiles and so on. Aluminum alloy profile light weight, corrosion resistance, high strength, often used in building doors and Windows, curtain walls and industrial manufacturing; Steel profiles have high strength and good toughness, and are important materials in the fields of building structure and machinery manufacturing. Plastic profiles have the characteristics of light weight, corrosion resistance, insulation, etc., and are widely used in architectural decoration and electrical insulation. In short, mastersdex can meet the diverse needs of different industries according to the specific shapes and properties of the desired profiles.

Aluminum Profile

The processing principle of aluminum profiles is mainly realized through the extrusion process. The heated aluminum rod is put into the extrusion cylinder, and the extrusion rod applies pressure to extrude the aluminum rod from the die hole of the mold to obtain an aluminum profile consistent with the shape and size of the die hole. In this process, the aluminum rod is in a three-way compressive stress state, and the plasticity is enhanced, so that various complex shapes can be extruded.

Plastic Profile

The processing principle of plastic profiles is to first heat the plastic raw materials to a molten state, and then push through the screw rotation of the extruder, so that the molten plastic enters the mold cavity of a specific shape under pressure, and forms a plastic profile with a fixed cross-section shape and size after cooling, and finally cut the finished product according to the required length

Steel Profile

The forming principle of steel special-shaped steel is to pass the steel billet head through the drawing die, and then apply tension through the drawing equipment to make the steel billet produce plastic deformation under the constraint of the die, reduce the cross section and increase the length, so as to gradually form the steel profile of the required shape and size, while improving its strength and accuracy.

FAQs

1. What are the different types of machining processes?

The two primary CNC machining processes are CNC turning and CNC milling. Other machining processes include drilling, gear hobbing and electrical discharge machining,grinding among others.

2. What tolerance standards do you guarantee?

Parts machined with metal will follow ISO 2768-m (medium) or ISO 2768-f (fine). Parts machined with plastics will follow 2768-m (medium). Geometric tolerances down to ± 0.001mm are possible but must be clearly indicated in technical drawings. We can achieve tighter tolerances on shafts with up to H7 fits with manual quoting and on occasion tighter.

3. What are the minimum and maximum dimensions you can machine?

We offer CNC milling (3-axis, 3+2-axis and 5-axis) and turning. Milled parts can be machined up to 2000 x 1500 x 300 mm for 3, 3+2 axis CNC milling. For 5-axis milling, the maximum part size is 650 x 650 x 300 mm. The maximum diameter for CNC turning is 431mm, length 990 mm. Minimum part dimensions recommended are around 2 x 2 x 2mm.The minimum for feature dimensions is 0.5 mm.

3. What are the minimum and maximum dimensions you can machine?

4. What cosmetic standards do you guarantee?

Deburing and edge breaking are standard procedures for all CNC machined parts. lf there are any critical edges that should be left sharp, they must be clearly indicated in technical drawings. Surfaces will be free of defects such as scratches, dents, stains, blemishes, hanging marks, minor defects. Surfaces indicated ascritical (primary (a) side, as indicated on the technical drawing) will be free of mill steps and other marks. For the secondary (b) side, minor hanging marks and up to 2 minor defects are acceptable. A number of post-processing and finishing methods can be applied to improve the surface roug hness, visual properties andwear resistance of machined parts.

5. What types of threading options are available?

We offer UNF, UNC, and metric threads for machining along with coil and key inserts. These are available on both milled or turned CNC parts.

6. Is there a minimum order quantity (MOQ) for CNC machining at Mastersdex?

Mastersdex caters to both one-off prototype and large-scale production runs. Thus, there is typically no strict MOQ. Whether you need a single part or thousands, Mastersdex aims to provide a solution.

7. How long does it take to receive a part once an order is placed?

Lead times can vary based on the complexity of the design, the chosen material, and the current workload. However, one of the advantages of CNC machining is its speed, especially for simpler parts. Once the setup is complete, machining times can be relatively quick. Parts machined as fast as 1 day! But for an accurate estimate, it’s best to request for quotes directly.

8. How can I reduce the cost of my machined parts?

9. What are the advantages of CNC machining?

Product designers and engineers choose CNC machining to rapidly produce prototypes and production parts. The manufacturing technology offers a high level of precision, engineering-grade materials, quick-turn lead times.

10. What industries use CNC machinery?

Industries that use CNC machining include aerospace, automotive parts manufacturing, medical machine manufacturing, transportation, defense, and marine industries, along with oil and gas industries and electronics. CNC machining has allowed these industries to become more efficient at mass-producing custom CNC parts.
