T-Slot aluminium extruded profiles are popular for a variety of reasons. Mainly their popularity is due to them being lightweight and durable, and because they are basically modular components, that provide effective solutions for a variety of applications. Compared with steel fabrication, a t-slot aluminium extruded profile doesn’t need to be welded, ground, primed or
Machine frames are a vital part of many engineering applications. One of the many design decisions you need to make is the material to use. For most heavy industrial applications, fabricated steel is the answer. However most applications are not ‘heavy industrial’. Most other applications can use either steel or aluminium for the framing system.
Grow your own fresh herbs, create a privacy screen and hide an unsightly feature all at the same time Our Aluminium framing system is perfect for building your own custom made vertical garden. You can build it yourself or we can build it for you. We also have a number of options available for automated watering.
20 x 20 and 20 x 40 T-slot Aluminium Profile The 20 series T-slot is the smallest in our range of extrude profiles it can be connected using the same easy method employed by all our profiles and it is available in the following sizes. T-slot aluminium profile: 20×20 (6mm slot) Product code:
Profile Joints – Part 6 Sliding clamp For applications that require occasional repositioning, we can supply custom made solutions in the form of a relocatable or sliding clamp. Without the use of any tools, you can change the position of your component. The concept works with any t-slot extruded aluminium profile. In this example,
Profile Joints – Part 4 Angular joint In this post we focus on the angular joint; what it is and how to put one together. This is the fourth in our series of posts on aluminium profile joints. Essentially, the angular joint is a variation of the linear joint. See our earlier blog post on
Profile Joints – Part 3 Linear joint. This is the third in our series of posts on aluminium profile joints. In this one we focus on the linear joint. A few months ago, we had a customer who was building a display stand to use at various trade shows around the country. The interesting things about
Standard Connection The standard connection is the simplest and most cost effective joint for Alusic aluminium T slot profiles. It is a perpendicular (or square) joint using a single socket head screw (fixing screw) without the use of any fancy accessories. In this simple joint the central hole in the first profile piece to be joined
While the standard connection for t-slot extrusions is the most cost-effective and commonly used joint there are situations where a different solution is required. A good example of this is the fixing, or clamping, plate joint used to make a perpendicular joint between two pieces of t-slot profile. The main difference between a fixing plate
Modular aluminium extrusions are fast becoming popular in the construction of clean rooms. A clean room is used in many industries from hospitals and medical research centres to electronics, optical and precision manufacturing industries. The purpose of a clean room is to eliminate any contaminants, such as airborne particles, dust and vapours from the room.
Machine guarding is vital to the safety of workers who operate or work within the vicinity of engineering or industrial machinery, preventing human contact that could result in severe injuries or even death. At Gap Engineering we specialise in the design of aluminium parts that can be used in the construction of machine guards. Aluminium
From the simple to the most complex of modular frame designs, extruded aluminium profiles are the ideal material. Modular framing systems provide both structural and architectural elements that can be easily and quickly assembled. With a large range of extruded aluminium profiles that are easy to assemble and take apart, our entire aluminium framing systems
