Explore our industrial grade aluminum profiles, continuous geared hinges, structural assemblies, and engineered rescue platforms.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of global industrial automation, structural integrity and weight reduction are paramount. Custom Aluminum Profile 2040 (measuring 20mm x 40mm in cross-section) has emerged as a cornerstone engineering element. Serving as a highly versatile T-Slot and V-Slot structure, the 2040 profile offers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, allowing engineers to build sturdy, modular frameworks without the excessive weight of welded steel.
As leading manufacturers, Lvxing Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. specializes in delivering tailored 2040 aluminum extrusions that meet the precise mechanical needs of global industries. From heavy-duty linear motion guides to architectural framework, precision solar brackets, and helicopter landing decks, our aluminum profile solutions provide the reliable structural bedrock for forward-thinking engineering projects.
Achieving optimum performance in high-stress systems requires using the correct aluminum alloy series. Lvxing works with a broad range of alloy groups, primarily leveraging premium **Fenglu aluminum** material to ensure unmatched batch consistency, microstructural uniformity, and structural resilience. Below is the technical specification breakdown for our primary structural extrusion alloys.
| Alloy Series | Common Temper | Yield Strength (MPa) | Tensile Strength (MPa) | Key Characteristics & Primary Applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6063 Series | T5 / T6 | 170 - 214 | 215 - 245 | Excellent surface finish, high corrosion resistance. Standard for 2040 framing systems. |
| 6061 Series | T6 | 240 - 276 | 290 - 310 | Heavy-duty structural components. High weldability and load-bearing performance. |
| 7075 Series | T6 | 435 - 505 | 510 - 570 | Aerospace-grade high strength alloy. Perfect for highly stressed structural frameworks. |
| 5052 Series | H32 / H34 | 130 - 180 | 190 - 230 | Excellent marine corrosion resistance and formability; utilized in specialized marine framing. |
When utilizing 2040 profiles in horizontal spans (such as gantry beams in CNC routers or long automation lines), deflection analysis is critical. The moment of inertia for 2040 on its X-axis (Ix ≈ 4.5 cm⁴) and Y-axis (Iy ≈ 1.2 cm⁴) dictates that structural loading should ideally run parallel to the 40mm dimension. Our engineers provide detailed structural calculations based on Euler-Bernoulli beam theories to ensure zero failure under load.
Established in 2015 and strategically located in Foshan City, Guangdong (the heart of China's aluminum industry), Lvxing Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. operates a high-tier production environment designed around Industry 4.0 standards.
We operate comprehensive extrusion infrastructure, with lines ranging from **800T to 20,000T**. This range enables us to extrude versatile profiles, producing complex cross-sections up to **1.2 meters in width** and continuous lengths of up to **28 meters**. Our state-of-the-art facilities offer:
Extrusion presses up to 20,000T process robust profiles in aerospace-grade alloys (2xxx, 7xxx) as easily as standard 6xxx utility sections.
Operating under GB/T19001-2016 and ISO9001:2015 frameworks, we deliver tolerances down to ±0.1mm on 2040 and larger-scale geometries.
Complete secondary machining: precision cutting, CNC drilling, tapping, milling, and specialized surface anodizing or powder coating.
The utility of custom-milled aluminum extends far beyond static frames. Lvxing’s production ecosystem supplies tailored materials directly to high-demand global sectors, combining structural 2040 geometries with specialized large-scale components:
The aluminum extrusion industry is shifting towards low-carbon and smart structural applications. Lvxing's R&D department is actively pioneering several technical innovations:
First, we are expanding our **Green Aluminum Initiative** by utilizing post-industrial scrap and low-carbon primary aluminum smelted with renewable hydropower. This reduces the embodied carbon footprint of our 2040 and custom structural profiles by up to 50%, helping our global clients hit stringent environmental targets.
Second, we are optimizing micro-alloying techniques. By introducing precise trace amounts of elements like Scandium (Sc) and Zirconium (Zr) into standard 6000 and 7000 series, we are developing extrusions that maintain structural integrity at high temperatures, which is critical for next-generation electric vehicle (EV) battery enclosures and aerospace assemblies.
Lvxing supports international procurement processes with robust quality control documentation and export logistics assistance. Every shipment is backed by Material Test Reports (MTRs), chemical composition analysis certificates, and mechanical load performance reviews.
We verify that our exports comply with regional market regulations including the European Union's REACH and RoHS directives, as well as ASTM/EN manufacturing standards. Through established agreements with top-tier global shipping lines and specialized project cargo carriers, we ensure safe and predictable transit of everything from standard 2040 profiles to complex 28-meter structural spans.
