Specifically, the method for calculating the weight per meter of aluminum profiles is to multiply the cross-sectional area of the aluminum profile (in cm²) by 100cm, then multiply it by the density of aluminum 2.7g/cm³, and finally divide the result by 1000 to get the weight per meter in kilograms. Of course, for aluminum profiles with simple shapes, we can also use a simpler algorithm formula to quickly calculate the weight per meter of aluminum.
The weight per meter of aluminum bars can be calculated by the following formula:
Weight per meter of aluminum bars (kg) = 0.00271 × thickness × width (unit: mm). Similarly, the weight per meter of aluminum tubes is calculated as follows: Weight per meter of aluminum tubes (kg) = 0.00879 × wall thickness × (outer diameter - wall thickness).
For aluminum plates, the weight per meter is calculated as follows: Weight per meter of aluminum plates (kg) = 0.00271 × thickness × width. The weight per meter of aluminum rods can be estimated using the following formula: Weight per meter of aluminum rods (kg) = 0.0022 × diameter × diameter.
If we consider square aluminum bars, the formula for calculating the weight per meter is: square aluminum bar weight per meter (kg) = 0.0028 × side width × side width.
In addition, the weight of aluminum patterned plates is calculated as: weight per square meter = 2.96 × thickness. These formulas are simple and easy to use, and can quickly produce results.
It should be noted that for aluminum profiles with complex shapes, it may be necessary to calculate their cross-sectional area first, and then calculate the weight per meter according to the above formula. If there is a CAD drawing, the calculation of the area will become relatively simple.
