From aluminum plate to sheet and aluminum foil

The production of aluminum sheet or aluminum foil usually starts out the same way as aluminum plate, but the aluminum slab is further rolled through a continuous mill to reduce thickness and wound into a coil at the end of the line. These aluminum coils are subsequently cold rolled, from one to several passes at cold rolling mills. Aluminum coils may be heated in a furnace to soften it for further cold rolling or produce the desired mechanical properties. Cold rolling is the last step for some aluminum sheet, but other types (referred to as heat-treatable) are subjected to further elevated-temperature processing to increase their strength.

Some aluminum sheet and aluminum foil products may also be produced using the continuous casting process in which molten metal enters the caster, which produces a hot rolled coil, thus bypassing the ingot casting and hot rolling steps.

Aluminum plate applications

Aluminum Plate is used in heavy-duty applications such as those found in the aerospace, military and transportation product manufacturing. Aluminum plate, machined to shape, forms the skins of jets and spacecraft fuel tanks. It is used for storage tanks in many industries, in part because some aluminum alloys become tougher at supercold temperatures. This property is especially useful in holding cryogenic (very-low-temperature) materials. Aluminum Plate is also used to manufacture structural sections for railcars and ships, as well as armor for military vehicles.

Producing aluminum plate - Aluminum Plate and Sheet

Producing aluminum plate - Aluminum Plate and Sheet

Aluminum rolling begins with preheated aluminum sheet ingots that can weigh more than 20 tons. As the size of rolling mills has increased, so has the size of these aluminum ingots, but a typical aluminum ingot is approximately 6 feet wide, 20 feet long and more than 2 feet thick. 

The aluminum ingot is first heated to rolling temperature and fed into a breakdown mill, where it is rolled back and forth until the thickness has been reduced to just a few inches. 

The slab can be subsequently cold rolled or may be heat-treated to increase its strength. The highest strength aluminum alloys are heat treated and rapidly cooled to room temperature, after which they are stretched to straighten and relieve internal stress built up during rolling and heat-treating. They are aged naturally at room temperature or artificially aged in a furnace to develop the desired combination of strength and corrosion resistance. 

Finally, the aluminum plate is trimmed to final size. Aluminum Plates produced in this manner may be used at full thickness, but are often machined into a variety of simple to complex shapes.
