Overview
Aluminium alloy ingots are smelted and refined from aluminium and aluminium scrap. They fall into two families — cast alloys and wrought alloys — and are supplied for die casting, casting and subsequent rolling or extrusion.
Applications (company statement)
Once ingots enter industrial use there are two families: cast aluminium alloys and wrought aluminium alloys; they are commonly used to manufacture land, sea and air transport including cars, trains, metro cars, ships, aircraft, rockets and spacecraft.
Typical downstream
- Cars and rail vehicles: structural parts, housings and wheels for lightweighting.
- Ship and aircraft structures requiring high strength-to-weight ratio.
- Casting and die-casting plants using ingots as remelt feedstock.
