Aluminum profiles are one of the most commonly used construction materials widely used in industry, e.g. for the construction and design of automatic robots on production lines and their equipment. They are often used by engineers to create prototypes and produce small series of devices due to the easy availability of various types of profiles as well as connectors and accessories. On the other hand, in the 3D printers, laser plotters as well as CNC machines industries, they are often used to build frame structures. Whatmore among the university and school students they are widely used in the construction of robots and various types of university projects.
Why aluminum profiles are becoming more popular? Due to a large number of different shapes - we have a choice of many types of profile sections that allow to be used not only for the construction of structures, but also as assembly elements, e.g. for solar panels or as frame elements for furniture and tables. Special grooves facilitate the installation of various types of materials.
In addition, the market has plenty of available connectors and accessories for aluminum profiles, facilitating the assembly of any unconventional projects. Our offer includes, for example, angles, connection plates, hinges, adjustment angle connectors, hammer nuts, board and mesh fasteners, floor and wall mounting elements, but also mounting feet, guide wheels, handles and end caps.
ALTRAX aluminum profiles are made of light aluminum, which is an easy-to-process metal, so cutting, drilling and threading are not a problem with the use of appropriate tools.
These are only the 3 most important advantages of aluminum profiles, and there are many more. Our engineers work on proprietary profiles of the new ALTRAX brand, these are profiles: T-SLOT groove type (size 2020, 2040, 3030, 3060) and V-SLOT groove type (size 2020, 2040). Engineers using these profiles and based on the popular 3d printers designs, such as: Voron, Hypercube, HevORT, designed frames with an blind joints assembly system that doesn't require additional angles or corner connectors. The use of angles is only optional, when we want to obtain even greater stiffness of the connection. The frames are connected with screws, which can be additionally used with glue to protect against possible loosening as a result of vibrations during the operation of the constructed structure. Assembly system is simple and doesn't require buying and looking for screws, they are included in the frame sets that we present in our offer.
