Aluminium
Aluminium in Extruded or Drawn Bars and Sheets
Aluminium in Bars is produced by extrusion, i.e., by compression of a billet (aluminium in bars produced by vertical continuous casting) heated to a softened state, and extruded through a steel die that gives the metal the desired shape.
After extrusion, if required, the resulting extruded aluminium bar can be subjected to a drawing process. This ‘cold-drawing’ process consists of passing the bar through a steel die of calibrated dimensions, so as to give the drawn aluminium section a profile with very narrow dimensional tolerances (see related tables in the technical catalogue).
The production of aluminium sheets and plates is carried out by a rolling process of cast plates in vertical continuous casting. Rolling consists of pulling the material through two rollers with parallel and counter-rotating axes; the space between the two rollers (canal) determines the thickness of the aluminium sheet or plate.

We can manufacture extruded profiles to drawing, in any size and format.
All aluminium bars or sheets can be supplied cut to size (see technical catalogue section ‘Services’)
All aluminium marketed by Commerciale Fond is produced by foundries with a certified ‘Quality System’ in compliance with the UNI EN ISO 9001-2008 standard.
