Material Characteristics:
⇒Light weight: The density of aluminum is approximately 2.7g/cm³, much lower than many common metals such as iron (density approximately 7.86g/cm³) and copper (density approximately 8.96g/cm³). This makes aluminum profiles for automotive sunroofs lightweight, contributing to reducing the weight of the entire vehicle, improving the fuel economy of the car. During vehicle driving, it reduces the overall load of the vehicle and has a certain positive impact on the vehicle's handling performance.
⇒High strength: Through reasonable alloying treatment and processing techniques, aluminum profiles for automotive sunroofs can have relatively high strength. It can withstand various stresses generated during vehicle driving and sunroof opening and closing, ensuring the stability and reliability of the sunroof structure and guaranteeing passenger safety.
⇒Corrosion resistance: Aluminum readily reacts with oxygen in the air to form a dense aluminum oxide film on the surface. This oxide film can prevent further oxidation of the internal aluminum, giving aluminum profiles good corrosion resistance. Even in harsh climatic conditions, such as humid and acid rain environments, aluminum profiles for automotive sunroofs can maintain good performance, are not prone to rust and corrosion, and prolong the service life of the sunroof.
Processing Techniques:
⇒Extrusion molding: This is one of the main processes for producing aluminum profiles for automotive sunroofs. The aluminum ingots are heated to a certain temperature to make them in a molten state. Then, pressure is applied through an extruder to make the aluminum liquid pass through the cavity of the mold, forming aluminum profiles with specific cross-sectional shapes and sizes. This process can produce various complex-shaped sunroof aluminum profiles to meet the diverse design requirements of automotive sunroofs.
⇒Surface treatment: To improve the appearance quality, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance of aluminum profiles for automotive sunroofs, surface treatment is required. Common surface treatment methods include anodic oxidation, electrophoretic coating, powder spraying, etc. Anodic oxidation treatment can form a hard, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant oxide film on the surface of the aluminum profile. It not only can increase the service life of the aluminum profile but also can obtain various colors through electrolytic coloring processes to meet the needs of automotive appearance design. Electrophoretic coating can form a uniform and dense coating on the surface of the aluminum profile, with good adhesion and corrosion resistance. Powder spraying is to attach the powder coating to the surface of the aluminum profile through electrostatic spraying and then undergo high-temperature baking and curing to form a solid coating with rich color options and good decorative properties.
Product Types:
⇒Sunroof guide rail profiles: They are key components in automotive sunroof systems and are used to guide the sliding of the sunroof. Their shape is usually long and strip-like, with precise dimensions and shape accuracy to ensure the smooth and stable sliding of the sunroof during opening and closing. The surface of the guide rail profiles usually requires special treatment, such as adding a lubricating coating or adopting a special structural design to reduce frictional resistance and improve the operating efficiency of the sunroof.
⇒Sunroof frame profiles: They are used to form the frame structure of automotive sunroofs and provide support and fixation for the sunroof glass. The strength and stiffness requirements of the frame profiles are relatively high to ensure that the sunroof does not deform or loosen during vehicle driving. At the same time, the design of the frame profiles also needs to consider the connection method with the vehicle body and the sealing performance to ensure the sealing between the sunroof and the vehicle body and prevent rain, dust, etc. from entering the vehicle.
⇒Sunshade curtain profiles: In some automotive sunroofs equipped with sunshade curtains, sunshade curtain profiles are used. Sunshade curtain profiles usually have a light weight and good flexibility to facilitate the retraction and expansion of the sunshade curtain. Their surface treatment also needs to meet certain requirements, such as having good wear resistance and weather resistance to ensure the service life of the sunshade curtain.
