High Precision CNC Aluminium Extrusion Press

An aluminium extrusion press is a heavy-duty hydraulic machine that forces a heated aluminium billet through a steel die to produce profiles with a specific cross-section — such as window frames, heat sinks, structural beams and industrial profiles.

The billet is preheated to 430–500°C, loaded into the container, and pushed by the main ram under 1,200–10,000+ tons of pressure. The softened aluminium flows through the die, then cools on a runout table before being stretched, cut and aged.

Our presses are engineered to process the full spectrum of aluminium alloys, including the 1xxx, 3xxx, 5xxx, 6xxx and 7xxx series. The most common are 6061, 6063, 6082 and 6005 for architectural and industrial profiles.

For hard alloys such as 2024 and 7075, we recommend our indirect extrusion presses with higher tonnage and optimized container design.

Extrusion speed depends on alloy, profile complexity and press tonnage. Typical ram speeds range from 2–25 mm/s, with profile exit speeds of 20–80 m/min for soft alloys like 6063.

Annual output for a single 1,800T line is approximately 6,000–10,000 tons/year running 2 shifts, with cycle times as fast as 45–90 seconds per billet.

Every ARZIR extrusion press meets CE / ISO safety standards and includes:

• Dual-circuit hydraulic overload protection
• Emergency stop buttons at every operator station
• Safety light curtains around moving parts and shear
• Hydraulic pressure relief and leak detection
• Thermal monitoring on motor, oil tank and main cylinder
• Fully guarded billet loading and discharge area.

Standard lead time is 6–10 months depending on press tonnage and the scope of auxiliary equipment (log heater, handling system, aging ovens, etc.). Larger turnkey lines may require 10–14 months.

All ARZIR extrusion presses come with a 3-year warranty on the main frame and hydraulic system, plus lifetime technical support and a free supply of critical wear parts during the first year.

ARZIR offers a complete range of short-stroke and long-stroke aluminium extrusion presses, including:

• Direct extrusion presses from 800T to 10,000T
• Indirect extrusion presses for hard alloys and seamless tubes
• Front-loading and side-loading configurations
• Complete turnkey extrusion lines with log heaters, handling systems, puller, stretcher, cooling table and aging ovens.

ARZIR extrusion presses range from 800 tons up to 10,000 tons of extrusion force, covering billet diameters from Ø100 mm to Ø650 mm and billet lengths up to 1,500 mm.

Customized larger-tonnage presses (12,000T+) are available upon request for special industrial applications such as railway, aerospace and large structural profiles.

Direct extrusion is the most widely used method — simple, cost-effective and ideal for soft alloys and standard architectural profiles. The billet moves while the die stays fixed.

Indirect extrusion keeps the billet stationary and moves the die, which reduces friction by up to 30%, lowers extrusion force, improves surface finish and is preferred for hard alloys (2xxx, 7xxx) and seamless tubes.

ARZIR presses are controlled by Siemens S7-1500 PLC with industrial HMI touchscreen and full closed-loop servo-proportional valves for precise ram speed and pressure control.

Optional upgrades include isothermal extrusion control, recipe management, production data logging, remote IoT diagnostics and integration with MES/ERP systems.
