Due to the wide use of aluminum and the relatively low price, the output of aluminum pyrometer has increased substantially in recent years. Aluminum pyrometer also has the advantages of light weight, excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, high strength and excellent corrosion resistance. Aluminum is often alloyed with other metals to produce aluminum pyrometers with special advantages for many end applications.

Aluminum weighs less than half of comparable steel parts, and has been used in many products to reduce weight and energy consumption. Aluminum pyrometer can easily meet strict tolerance indicators and shape requirements, thus minimizing the need for additional finishing. Due to the high strength-to-weight ratio, the application of aluminum in the aviation industry has developed rapidly. Also for fuel efficiency reasons, aluminum is now increasingly used in land transportation, including cars, trucks and trains.

Aluminum pyrometer is famous for its convenient and low-cost recycling, which is another important reason for its significant increase in applications. The energy required for aluminum recovery is only 5% of the energy consumption of the primary aluminum smelting process. As a result, greenhouse gas emissions are reduced by almost 95%. There is also no limit to the number of times that aluminum can be recycled.

Although aluminum pyrometer is very common, the extrusion of high-quality aluminum profiles is by no means easy. In the extrusion process, accurately mastering the temperature and controlling the speed and cooling rate of the extruder is essential to produce products with quality and performance that meet the requirements.

Producing aluminum pyrometer at an incorrect temperature means that it may not reach the design size after cooling. Even if the extrusion temperature is only slightly lower, the mold in the extruder may be worn faster, because the hardness of the metal will increase at this time, and greater force needs to be applied for extrusion. As the mold continues to wear, the physical size of the extrusion will change, and the cost of replacing a new mold is high. Therefore, the outlet temperature of the extruder must be continuously monitored as accurately as possible.

In contrast, aluminum pyrometer enables manufacturers to continuously measure the temperature of the metal at every step of the process. The aluminum pyrometer is not in contact with aluminum, so it will not cause surface damage. The high aluminum pyrometer just aims at the aluminum surface to receive and measure the emitted radiant energy.
