Extruded Profile in Alumunium Industry

Locomotive Industry

Extruded aluminium profiles have been an integral feature of the locomotive industry for long. The locomotive industry is using readymade profiles for use in both train interiors and exteriors. Body of the train is made from extruded aluminium that is not only durable but offers significant weight advantages also.

From the strong and durable luggage racks to the highly sophisticated Locomotive Control Interface system, extruded profiles are everywhere. The following image shows a Control Interface system housed in a sturdy extruded aluminium enclosure.

Another very significant application of extruded aluminium profiles lies in the Air Dyer package design for the railways. Air contamination is a genuine problem with the railways. The solution lies in providing a clean, dry compressed air that is oil-free to the equipment and applications that require uninterrupted and continuous operation. The modular design of extruded aluminium enables the dryer to meet specific application criteria.

Plastic and Rubber extruded profiles
Along with aluminium, plastic and rubber is also used in the locomotive industry. Their uses lies mainly as seals for protective purposes. It gives long life to the products. These extruded profiles are sometimes co extruded to add more diversity and strength to the product line.
