  Curious as to how exactly aluminum sheets are made? Aluminum sheet is an essential material for several industries and is the most used form of industrial aluminum for aerospace, transportation, and construction. Reason being, aluminum offers a variety of benefits, from being lightweight to having incredible corrosion resistance. Aluminum can be made into plates or sheets, both of which can be easily recycled without losing any of its original properties. This is what makes aluminum the most efficient choice for a wide array of industrial applications, but how exactly is an aluminum sheet made? Let the aluminum sheet metal experts at haomei explain.
  HOW ALUMINUM SHEET IS MADE
  

  When aluminum is passed between rolls, under immense pressure, it becomes thinner and longer. This simple process sets the basis for producing the following:

  • Aluminum Sheets
    
    
  • 
    
    
  • Aluminum Plates
    
    
  • 
    
    
  • Aluminum Foil
    
    
  • 
    

  Rolling the aluminum begins by preheating the sheet ingots. Once the ingot is properly heated to rolling temperatures, the aluminum is then fed into a breakdown mill. From here, the sheet is rolled back and forth until the desired thickness is reduced to just a few inches. After the rolling process, the aluminum sheet is wound into a coil. These coils are cooled by passing them through several cold rolling mills. If needed, the coils are heated in a furnace to soften the aluminum sheet to produce the desired mechanical properties. Cold rolling the aluminum sheet is the final stage of the process.
