Designing Large Aluminum Extrusions for Aerospace: From Concept to Flight-Ready Structures
Key Takeaways: Poor extrusion design increases cost, complexity, and failure risk. Many aerospace programs overcomplicate assemblies due to avoidable design inefficiencies at the extrusion stage. Designing for larger extrusions reduces part [...]
NDAA Section 836 and Aluminum Extrusions: What Defense Contractors Must Know
You may have heard that NDAA Section 836 requires domestic aluminum sourcing. Here's what's actually true. NDAA Section 836 directs the Department of War, formerly Department of Defense, to open a [...]
How the Largest Aluminum Extrusion Press in North America is Transforming Industries
Key Takeaways: Manufacturers are often forced into multi-part assemblies for wide profiles, which can compromise structural integrity, increase production complexity, and extend overall lead times. Expanding U.S. aluminum extrusion manufacturing strengthens [...]
Why Hard Alloy Aluminum Extrusions Are Critical for Large Aerospace Structures
Key Takeaways: Aircraft structures must withstand extreme stress, fatigue, and long service lifecycles while maintaining tight tolerances, making material selection a critical engineering challenge. Large, monolithic extrusions reduce the need for [...]
Inside the 10,000-ton Press Driving the Future of Aluminum Extrusion Profiles
Key Takeaways: Engineering teams often face design limitations when sourcing large aluminum extrusion profiles, forcing compromises like welded assemblies, added weight, and increased failure points. A 10,000-ton aluminum extrusion press removes [...]
