Engineering Aluminium & Plastic Extrusions

ENHANCING PERFORMANCE ACROSS ENGINEERING SECTORS

Aluminium extrusion is a game-changer for the engineering industry, offering properties such as strength, flexibility, corrosion resistance, superior thermal and electrical conductivity, and lightweight properties that enhance performance across multiple sectors. Whether you're designing intricate electronic components, robust mechanical structures, or high-precision automotive parts, aluminium extrusion is a cost-effective and sustainable solution.

In the engineering sectors mentioned below, we provide valuable expertise in extrusion, whether as a required solution or a recommended alternative to other manufacturing methods. Its versatility allows for greater efficiency and precision in the final component.

Aluminium Extrusion for Engineering

Mechanical Engineering Aluminium Extrusions for Integrated Assemblies

Mechanical assemblies benefit when structure and function are built into the profile itself. Aluminium extrusion makes that possible by integrating stiffness, mounting geometry, tracks, channels, and interface surfaces into one repeatable component.

When you combine stable profile design with a sensible tolerance strategy and planned machining, you reduce fabrication, simplify assembly, and improve repeatability. Explore our Mechanical Engineering page for applications, design guidance, machining options, and how to use our service.

Automotive Aluminium Extrusions for light-weighting and Impact Performance

Aluminium extrusion plays a significant role in automotive light-weighting, helping improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, and enhance vehicle dynamics while maintaining structural strength.

Designed for high-impact resistance and excellent energy absorption.

We supply extruded aluminium components for cooling and thermal-management systems, including assemblies for water coolers, oil coolers, and charge-air coolers (intercoolers), across automotive, transport, and industrial applications.

ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING

Precision-extruded aluminium components are essential in electronic systems, where thermal management and electromagnetic shielding are critical.

Aluminium's high thermal conductivity enables the efficient dissipation of heat, reducing component failure and improving longevity.

Common applications include:

Custom heat sinks for power electronics.
Enclosures for sensitive electronic circuits.
RF shielding components for high-frequency applications.

PRECISION ENGINEERING

When tolerances are tight and surface finish matters, the process is rarely ‘extrude and ship’. The best results come from getting three things right early: profile geometry that extrudes straight and stable, tolerances specified only where they control function, and a machining/inspection plan that targets the critical interfaces.

TELECOMS IN ENGINEERING

The telecoms industry requires high-strength, lightweightmaterials with excellent electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding.Aluminium extrusion delivers repeatable geometry for high-frequencyapplications, offering thermal stability and resistance to environmentalfactors.

Applications include:

Antenna enclosures and mounting systems
Structural components for telecom towers
5G network infrastructure and cooling systems

Telecoms parts often fail – or become expensive - at the interfaces; lids that don’t seal, connector faces that don’t locate cleanly, shielding paths that break at joints, or assemblies that vary from batch to batch. Extrusion adds value when it’s used to build those interfaces into the profile from the start, then machined only where it matters.
