Aluminum Cylinder Tube

Aluminum Cylinder Tube

Aluminum pneumatic cylinder tube (also called aluminum air cylinder barrel) is a kind of profile pipe used for assembling cylinders with honed smooth inner wall and high precision.

It only needs to be cut according to the actual required length, flattened, tapped, and deburred to be assembled with the front and rear base of cylinders. Most aluminum air cylinder tubing are made of aluminum 6063

Any component of a cylinder can be replaced, so if a single part is damaged, there is no need to replace the entire actuator.

The aluminum cylinder barrel is a replaceable main body component of a pneumatic actuator made from aluminum alloy. It provides the space for the piston and piston rod to move, and, with the assistance of seals and other sealing elements, forms an airtight chamber for compressed air.

Aluminum has excellent thermal conductivity, and the aluminum cylinder barrel provides the actuator with superior heat dissipation conditions. Compared to steel or stainless steel cylinders, aluminum cylinder barrels focus more on overall lightweight design, corrosion resistance, machining precision, and cost-effectiveness.

Aluminum cylinder barrels come in various types, and each cylinder model has corresponding shape specifications. Features such as mounting holes, slots for magnetic reed switches, and the cylinder’s inner and outer diameters are pre-machined on the barrel, making them suitable for a wide range of working conditions.

Your Leading Aluminum Cylinder Tubing Supplier

The material of aluminum pneumatic cylinder tubing is 6063 T5. The surface is often anodized. Hard coat anodized is commonly seen as well as sandblast anodizing. If you need better wear-resistance, hard anodized is your best choice.

 

Aluminum pneumatic cylinder tubing with the hard anodized surface has thicker film thickness and better hardness. Generally speaking, the hardness can reach 400HV. In a word, they are strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant.

Processes of manufacturing aluminium pneumatic cylinder tube:

Step One: Heating Aluminium

First you will collect all the raw materials that you require among them being aluminum.

Apart from aluminum you will need the heating equipment as well as the molding equipment of various shapes.

After that you will load the aluminum into the heating drum for and allow it to heat to certain temperatures preferably 350 – 500 0C.

The temperature of the heating drum on the induction furnace will melt the aluminum to a semisolid or liquid state.

Step Two: Hole Flanging

This is the process of making a hollow cavity within the aluminum tube.

You need to have a block with depth that will support the center barrier of the aluminum cylinder.

The center block will determine the shape of the hole.

You should choose a block that will determine and support the center profile of the aluminum cylinder tube.

The machine pours that molten aluminum around the block and it will assume the internal shape of the block.

The molten aluminum flows around the block and fuses together to form a closed shape.

You should ensure that the block does not stick to the molten aluminum making it difficult to remove.

Step Three: Making a Profile

At the same time, as the molten aluminum begins to take shape, you will force it through a hollow tube.

The hole of the hollow tube can assume any shape and that determines the profile of the aluminum cylinder tube.

As it passes through the hole, it will assume the shape of the hollow tube.

The space between the center block and the hollow tube will determine the thickness of the aluminum cylinder tube.

Step Four: Cooling and Stretching Process

After that you will pass the hot aluminum tube through the cooling zone.

It will cool the hot aluminum using cold air or water.

After cooling, you will straighten the profile to release the internal stresses by stretching in a pulling machine.

The machine will cut the aluminum cylinder tube profiles into different sizes according to the specifications.

Step Five: Anodizing Aluminum Cylinder Tubes

Finally, you will pass the aluminum through the electrochemical process that will convert the metal surface through anodizing.

Anodizing gives the aluminum pneumatic cylinder surface a durable, decorative, corrosion-resistant, anodic oxide finish.

You will immerse the aluminum cylinder into an acid electrolyte bath before passing an electric current through it.

Mount a cathode inside the anodizing tank and the aluminum cylinder tube will act as the anode.

Oxygen ions will come from the electrolyte and combine with the aluminum atoms on the surface.

This gives the aluminium the high strength properties making it durable for any form of pressure.
