Light gauge aluminum foil

Overview

Light gauge aluminum foil is a thin, flexible material made from high-purity aluminum alloys. It is typically defined as aluminum foil with a thickness range of 0.005 to 0.009 mm, although some sources may use slightly different definitions.

Light gauge aluminum foil is commonly used for packaging, insulation, and other industrial and consumer applications. Its thin, lightweight, and malleable properties make it an ideal material for a wide range of uses.

Production process for rolling light gauge aluminum foil

The following content comes from the Google patent.

An advanced production process for rolling thin-gauge aluminum foil, comprising the following steps:

1. Rough rolling, the reduction of each pass of rough rolling is 0.3mm～0.14mm～0.07mm～0.038mm;
2. Intermediate rolling is carried out, and the single-pass reduction of intermediate rolling is 0.038mm to 0.013mm;
3. Perform double rolling;
4. Perform intermediate annealing;
5. Cleaning the billet, that is, cleaning the surface of the aluminum foil billet with rolling oil at the entrance of the finish rolling;
6. Carry out finish rolling, the rolling reduction of each pass is 0.013mm～0.005mm;
7. slitting;
8. Annealing of semi-finished products;
9. and packaging and warehousing.
