Alloys and billets
ALLOYS Due to their characteristics, cast alloys enable the use of large-scale casting procedures (pressure casting and casting in moulds) with high productivity. We produce them in the form of cast ingots and mould cast ingots. Use: automotive industry (rims, bodywork, motor parts, chassis parts), aeronautical industry, shipping industry, civil engineering, food industry. The characteristics of cast alloys are low specific weight, good corrosive resistance, good workability, clear and smooth surface and non-magnetic properties. We produce all main types of cast alloys. As alloy elements mostly silicon, copper, magnesium, zinc and manganese are used. BILLETS According to the definition in the Dictionary of the standard Slovenian language a billet is a long, level object, generally round in its section. An aluminium billet is an intermediate product for the industry, which produces a wide range of products, mainly aluminium profiles, with various processes of plastic transformation (mostly with extrusion and forging). Use: transport industry, vehicle industry, civil engineering, furniture industry, heat engineering. Alloy types We produce alloy groups series 6000, in which magnesium and silicon are the main additives. The most frequent alloys are: 6060 - alloy AlMgSi0,5 6005 - alloy AlMgSi0,7 6082 - alloy AlMgSi1
