Extrucolor expands its range of inspection equipment for aluminium extrusion profiles with a high-end traction machine.

Besides in-factory control, it also provides customers with the possibility of assessing their products with regard to their different mechanical properties. With longitudinal stresses, multi-point flexes, compressions and shear, we accurately define the extrusion profile and provide customer support for its applications.

Mechanical characteristics matter, not only in load-bearing structures, but also in many other sectors such as automotive, railway, roofs/tents, and others where extrusion profiles are stressed due to compression, bending and/or folding. The correct definition of the aluminium profile’s requirements is necessary to optimise product quality and satisfy the consumer.
