FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Commonly, AlMgSi 0.5 F22 and EN AW-6060 alloys are used for aluminum pipe bends. These are selected for their excellent weldability, anodizability, and strength-to-weight ratio, along with superior weather resistance.
Aluminum pipe bends come in various angles like 45°, 90°, 135°, and 180°, with radii ranging from 15 mm to 1000 mm. This flexibility allows customization for different pipeline applications.
The wall thickness of aluminum pipe bends varies with the pipe diameter, typically ranging from 1.5 mm to 5 mm. This thickness is a crucial factor in determining the stability and bending strength.
Quality testing of aluminum pipe bends involves checking dimensional accuracy, strength, and surface finish using tools like micrometers and tensile testing machines, adhering to standard guidelines.
Aluminum pipe bends should be stored in a dry, clean environment, shielded from direct sunlight and moisture. During transport, they require proper cushioning and should avoid contact with other metals to prevent corrosion.
Mounting aluminum pipe elbows can be done through bolting or welding. Correct alignment and use of suitable bolts, gaskets, and welding equipment are essential for effective installation.
Cleaning aluminum pipe bends can be done with a soft cloth and mild cleaning agents. Specialized aluminum cleaners are also available. Polishing with natural acids like vinegar or citric acid can enhance their shine.
Aluminum pipe bends are preferred for their light weight, high stability, excellent formability, and environmental friendliness, making them a superior choice over materials like steel or plastic.
Despite their advantages, aluminum pipe bends can be more expensive, less heat resistant, prone to galvanic corrosion with other metals, and sensitive to certain chemicals.
Services
Our FEM calculations are a cornerstone of product development, ensuring smooth test phases and customer satisfaction post-commissioning. By using advanced FEM calculations, we assess component strength, fatigue strength, and material efficiency. Our digital simulations explore the impact of diverse forces, temperature variations, and electrical stresses, including both linear and non-linear structural-mechanical calculations. These comprehensive analyses enable us to predict the performance of simple to complex geometries even before prototype development. The results serve as crucial evidence for technical approvals, product liability, and production releases. Our standardized, internationally recognized analytical approach guarantees comparability and reliable outcomes. Services include:
- Linear and non-linear structural mechanics calculations
- Deformation, stiffness, and stability analysis
- Natural vibration considerations
- Transient structural analysis
- Collision analyses
- Temperature field calculation
- CAE-supported fatigue calculation with nCode
