What to Consider When Purchasing an Extrusion Machine

Many customers are purchasing an Aluminum Extrusion Machine for the first time and may not know what type of machine they should buy or what preparations need to be made.

Before purchasing an aluminum extrusion machine, it is important to know the size of the aluminum profiles you intend to produce. Different sizes require different types of extrusion machines. For example, if you are planning to produce standard window and door profiles, an extrusion machine with a capacity of 1100 to 1500 tons should suffice.

It's assumed that you have already prepared a floor plan for your factory before purchasing the extrusion machine. If you are setting up a new factory, it's even better. Our engineers can assist in planning the layout of the factory, including where to place the extrusion machine, the cutting machine, and other related equipment. It's advisable to follow the engineers' recommendations, as they have years of experience in planning and can help you make the most efficient use of your factory space.

The time from placing an order to the completion of the product usually ranges from 3 to 8 months, depending on the size of the extrusion machine. The larger the machine, the more time it will take to produce. Shipping from the factory to the customer’s location typically takes about a month, and the number of containers required for transportation, which ranges from 1 to 3, depends on the size of the machine.

Some customers may worry about the installation and after-sales service of the product. There is no need to worry about this. Our factory will send two workers to the customer’s location to install the machine, even for overseas customers. The installation process usually takes about a month, during which the customer’s factory staff will need to cooperate with our workers to complete the installation. We will ensure that the machine operates smoothly.

Therefore, the time required from placing the order to the machine’s normal operation typically ranges from 5 to 10 months. Customers can use this timeline as a reference to plan their schedules, prepare for the purchase of aluminum production machinery, and minimize any potential time wastage.
