Aluminium: lightweight, machinability, processability and performance

Lightweight, easy-to-convert, corrosion-resistant material

Aluminium combines several major advantages for industrial production:

• Low density: ideal for lightening structures, mechanical components or embedded parts.
• Excellent machinability: high cutting speeds, easy drilling, milling and turning.
• Good processability: for large-volume cold heading applications
• Natural corrosion resistance: can be used untreated or anodized to enhance resistance or obtain aesthetic finishes.
• Recyclability: to meet the new requirements of the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries.

These qualities make it a benchmark material for sectors where precision and lightness are crucial.

Custom-made aluminum parts

ARDEC industries manufactures a wide variety of aluminium parts to plan, for structural, functional or aesthetic applications:

• Technical parts for mobility: lightening elements, supports, end caps, mechanical components.
• Components for medical or optical devices: fine structures, precision machined elements.
• Design or finishing parts: luxury goods, cosmetics, decorations.
• Milled components for embedded systems: sensors, housings, electronic supports.
• Components for sports equipment: fasteners, mechanical elements.

We produce prototypes, small technical series or recurring series, with functional or decorative finishes.
