application of aluminum strips on mobile phones

Aluminum alloy is widely used in mobile phone components, mainly because of its advantages such as light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity, strong plasticity and good surface treatment performance. Common aluminum alloy grades for mobile phones are:5252-H32,6013-T6,6061-T6,6063-T6,7021-T6 and 7075-T6 etc.

application of aluminum strips on desktop computers/all-in-one machines

Aluminum strips play a triple role of structure, function and aesthetics in desktop and all-in-one devices due to their excellent thermal conductivity, strength-to-weight ratio, formability and decorativeness. Aluminum alloy materials are usually used in different parts of computers, including the panel and shell of laptops; the back panel and frame of all-in-one computers; the panel and shell of tablet computers; as well as computer cases, keyboard positioning plates, panels, etc.

 

In order to meet the requirements of different structural strengths and lightweight designs, we can provide aluminum strip products in a variety of alloy states, thicknesses, and widths, and support slitting customization and surface treatment. Commonly used aluminum alloy grades include 5252-H32, 5052, 5754, 6061-T6, 6063-T6, etc.
