Aluminum Parts for Five Industries, Each With One Decisive Number
Every industry fails parts for a different reason. A consumer housing fails on appearance, an inverter enclosure fails on a sealing face, an optical module fails on fin position. These pages start from the number that decides your case.
Where our extrusion and machining work is used
The process is the same in every vertical. What changes is which dimension the assembly cannot forgive.
Consumer Electronics
Housings, mid-frames and charging cases where the wall is 0.3 mm and the finish is the product.
Decisive: 0.3 mm wall
New Energy
Battery pack, ESS, inverter and charger enclosures with machined sealing faces.
Decisive: sealing faces
Smart Home
Locks, gateways, sensors and panels — small parts, tight bores, cost at 2,000 pcs.
Decisive: bore and thread control
Optical Communication
Module heat sinks and shielded housings where fin position sets thermal performance.
Decisive: fin pitch ±0.05 mm
Medical Devices
6061-T6 structural parts and equipment housings judged on flatness and hole position.
Decisive: flatness and hole position
Other Applications
Lighting, audio, industrial control, instrumentation. If the part is an aluminum housing or a structural member, the route is likely to fit.
Ask about your applicationWhich industries use which part types
A cross-reference for the parts we quote most often, and the tolerance that usually decides them.
| Industry | Typical parts | Tolerance that decides |
|---|---|---|
| Consumer Electronics | Housings, mid-frames, charging cases, thin-wall shells | 0.3 mm wall and surface appearance |
| New Energy | Battery pack, ESS, inverter and charger enclosures | Sealing faces and flatness over long parts |
| Smart Home | Locks, gateways, sensors, wall panels | Small parts with tight bore and thread control |
| Optical Communication | Module heat sinks and shielded housings | Fin pitch ±0.05 mm and thermal contact |
| Medical Devices | Structural parts and equipment housings | Flatness, hole position and 6061-T6 strength |
What all five industries have in common
The parts differ, the failure modes do not. In every vertical the same three things decide whether a programme runs smoothly:
- Wall thickness agreed at die design. A wall that will not fill cannot be machined into existence.
- One datum across processes. The bore and the outer wall must come from the same reference, or the assembly closes at an angle.
- Finish approved physically. A colour approved on a screen is a colour you will reject on a pallet.
That is why the industry pages all end at the same question: which number can your assembly not forgive? Bring that number to the first conversation and the rest follows.
About industry compliance
Serving an industry is not the same as being certified for it. We do not claim ISO, CE, RoHS, UL, IATF or medical-device approvals on this site.
If your programme requires specific certificates, tell us which ones and we will confirm in writing what we hold and what we do not — before you spend time on a supplier audit.
Tell Us the Number Your Assembly Cannot Forgive
Wall thickness, sealing face, fin pitch or bore position — start there. We will tell you whether extrusion plus machining can hold it, and what it costs at your volume.
