Zhejiang Aluminum Processing Prices - Which Company Offers the Lowest Prices? Processing Hotline: [Suzhou Boli Metal Materials Co., Ltd.] Our company undertakes precision manufacturing of a variety of aluminum profiles for heat exchangers, panels, tubes, and a series of aluminum materials for automotive, train, ship, subway, and mechanical parts, as well as custom aluminum profiles. Aluminum processing involves plastic deformation methods to transform aluminum ingots into materials, primarily through rolling, extrusion, stretching, and forging. Aluminum processing began industrial production in the early 20th century, using copper processing equipment prior to the 1930s, with products mainly used in aircraft manufacturing. After the 1960s, aluminum production rapidly developed, growing by approximately 4-8% annually, and its applications expanded to aviation, construction, transportation, electrical, chemical, packaging, and daily commodity industries. Its output ranks second only to steel among metal materials. China established larger aluminum processing plants in the mid-1950s, forming a production system. Products are now series-produced, including seven alloy series, capable of producing sheets, strips, foils, tubes, rods, profiles, wires, and forgings (free forgings, die forgings).
