A source factory for your complete profile requirement
Choosing an aluminum extrusion factory starts with the product you intend to make. A window frame needs matching sashes, beads, seals and hardware interfaces. An industrial section may depend on a precise mounting face or a machined hole pattern. Decorative profiles place particular emphasis on exposed surfaces and consistent color. We review these requirements together, so your quotation describes a usable product rather than an isolated section.
MT Flying combines its profile production base with window and door system knowledge. Buyers can discuss extrusion supply alone or a broader package of profiles, components and finished units. This factory direct supply approach gives your technical and purchasing teams a shared specification to approve before an order moves forward.
Aluminum extrusion production and 6063-T5 options
In extrusion, heated aluminum passes through a shaped die to create a continuous section. The finished geometry also depends on cooling, straightening, cutting and thermal processing. For architectural applications, the agreed alloy and temper must be stated on the drawing and purchase specification. Selected MT Flying window catalogue configurations use 6063-T5 aluminum; availability and suitability for a new custom section are confirmed during technical review.
Do not select a profile from alloy designation alone. Wall distribution, hollow chambers, surface requirements and the section’s assembly interfaces also influence feasibility. Send the required dimensions and identify the features that control fit. The team can then discuss a production route and the evidence needed to accept the first sample.
Custom die opening and OEM development
For a new shape, custom die opening begins with an approved section drawing. Share the application, expected order quantity, recurring demand and any mating parts. These inputs help define the tooling proposal and the trial process. Die cost, ownership arrangements, modification scope and the sample approval procedure should be included in the commercial discussion.
An OEM project may involve several related extrusions rather than one die. Frame, sash, bead and connector sections must work as a system. We can review your bill of materials alongside the drawings to identify related items before trial production. Bulk supply proceeds against the agreed revision, with changes documented so that later batches do not drift from the approved assembly.
Powder coating, anodizing and wood grain finishing
Appearance belongs in the specification from the beginning. Powder coating provides color and texture choices; anodizing creates a metallic surface appearance; wood grain finishing offers a wood-inspired decorative option. Tell us which faces remain visible after assembly and whether profiles will sit together in the same installation. Agree a physical finish sample when appearance matching is important.
The environment also matters. Indoor partitions, exposed windows and coastal facades require different finishing discussions. Identify the service conditions and any project coating requirements with your enquiry. The final finish system, acceptance criteria and supporting documents should be confirmed for the actual order rather than inferred from a photograph.
Production advantages that support repeat orders
The practical advantage of a connected factory workflow is coordination. Profile production, surface treatment, machining and order preparation can be discussed around the same drawing. Cut lengths, drilled features, protection film and bundle labels should be planned together to reduce handling problems at the next stage.
For repeat orders, retain the approved drawing revision, finish reference and component list. Confirm current production availability and shipment timing for each release. Capacity depends on section complexity, tooling, finishing and order mix, so the quotation should include a realistic schedule for your requirement. Ask for a factory discussion or visit if your team needs to review the manufacturing route in more detail.
Inspection, packing and export preparation
Define acceptance before manufacturing begins. The inspection plan can address critical dimensions, length, straightness, visible finish, machining and assembly fit. For a new profile, a sample review allows both sides to clarify the checks before the full order is processed. Include any required material or inspection documentation in the enquiry.
Export packing should match the section and the unloading method. Long profiles need support and protection against rubbing, while mixed orders need clear bundle identification. Provide the destination, preferred shipping basis and any container constraints. MT Flying can discuss profiles, related hardware and finished systems within a coordinated export supply scope.
Factory support for your order
MT Flying connects aluminum profile production with window and door system knowledge. Our team can review the section, finish, related components and requested processing as one supply plan.
Confirm the approved drawings, material list, inspection requirements, packing and shipment arrangements before releasing production.
Frequently asked questions
What should I send an aluminum extrusion manufacturer for a quote?
Send a dimensioned drawing, alloy and temper requirement, finish, cut length, quantity and destination. Identify critical tolerances, machining needs and any mating sections. A sample or application sketch can support the initial discussion when a final drawing is not ready.
Can you supply 6063-T5 custom aluminum profiles?
6063-T5 appears in selected MT Flying architectural system specifications. State this requirement in your enquiry so the team can confirm suitability, availability and the applicable documentation for your custom extrusion.
Can one order include different profiles and finishes?
Mixed requirements can be reviewed against the bill of materials. Quantities, production arrangements and packing are confirmed by section and finish. Ask for a clearly itemized quotation so your purchasing team can compare the complete supply scope.
