Application of aluminum discs in cookware manufacturing


Jinding supply professional and honest service.

According to incomplete statistics, about half of the cookware in the world is made of aluminum. The cooking thermal efficiency is as high as 93%. Using aluminum circle to make cookware will greatly increase the physical and chemical properties of the cookware, improve the electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, heat resistance and other properties of the cookware, providing guarantee for a good diet. .

Why use aluminum circles to make kitchen cookware?

  1. Aluminum circle has good thermal conductivity

Cookware needs to maintain good thermal conductivity, and aluminum pans have high thermal conductivity. When used as a production material for cookware, the produced cookware can quickly conduct heat from the fire source to the food, providing good conditions for cooking.

  1. The aluminum circle has strong corrosion resistance

During the process of high-temperature barbecue, the cookware must also achieve stable chemical properties. As a stable metal material, the aluminum plate itself will not rust, and some other metals will be added during the production process to make it highly durable. Corrosion resistance can resist corrosion from various substances, so that the cookware produced can meet the corresponding requirements.

  1. Can meet appearance requirements

Because aluminum pans are soft, they can expand significantly. Therefore, cookware made of aluminum wafers has a uniform surface particle thickness after molding, without defects such as drawing, pad printing, scratches, etc., and has a beautiful appearance.

Aluminum circles for kitchen cookware:

Common uses for 1060 aluminum discs are cookware, lampshades, and signage.

1070 aluminum circle CC/DC application

1070 alumina circle have good cold forming characteristics, stable performance and high value. Xienuo aluminum rounds can be processed into beautiful cookware or light-colored lampshades.

1100 aluminum circle CC/DC application

1100 aluminum disc has good cold working forming characteristics. The elongation is between 35%-38%. Aluminum circles are stable and more valuable.

Aluminum pan for high pressure rice cooker

3003 aluminum disc has stable and excellent formability. At the same time, the elongation rate is high and it is widely suitable for deep drawing process. The aluminum wafers we produce have high grain size and a clean luster. The aluminum wafers have high reflectivity. 3003 aluminum pans are widely used in the aluminum processing and manufacturing industry as stretched aluminum pans for cookware.

Aluminum disc

In the field of audio recording, an aluminum disc (aluminium in the UK and elsewhere) is a phonograph (gramophone in the UK) record made of bare aluminum, a medium introduced in the late 1920s for making one-off recordings. Although sometimes used for making amateur studio or home recordings or in coin-operated "record-your-voice" booths at fairs and arcades, during the first half of the 1930s bare aluminum discs were primarily used to record radio broadcasts for the private transcription disc archives of performers or sponsors.[1]

In the recording process, a sufficiently amplified audio signal was sent to a heavily weighted electromagnetic recording head with a blunt diamond stylus that indented/embossed, rather than cut or engraved, a sound-modulated groove into the surface of the metal. Normally, a completely blank disc was used and the recording head was slowly carried toward its center by a dedicated fixed-pitch feed mechanism. Some lower-end recording units economized by eliminating the feed mechanism, relying instead on the use of discs already cut with a narrow blank groove that guided the stylus This simply impressed its vibrations into the relatively quiet by comparison upper region of the existing groove, leaving the noisy groove bottom blank. This cost-cutting approach produced recordings with a very limited dynamic range and generally inferior sound. In either case, because of the grain structure of the metal and its resistance to the side-to-side motions of the recording stylus, even with leaving the groove bottom blank, significant surface noise was inherent and the high-frequency signal content was heavily attenuated.

Subsequent vertically-modulated versions fared better acoustically, but with their incompatibility with standard home phonographs of the period, were discontinued fairly rapidly.

The recording had to be played back with a fiber needle such as cut and pointed bamboo or a plant thorn, as an ordinary steel needle in a typical heavy pickup would severely damage the soft aluminum surface. Even when playing a bare aluminium disc with a modern lightweight magnetic cartridge, a hard stylus that does not correctly fit the contour of the groove will score its surface and tend to skip and repeat, damaging the disc as well as degrading the quality of the recovered audio. Because the blunt recording stylus typically bore down on the aluminum at a substantial angle, it produced a disproportionately shallow groove, so that optimum playback with modern equipment requires a custom stylus with an unusually large tip radius.

In 1934, the Pyral Company in France and the Presto Recording Corporation in the United States independently created the so-called acetate disc by coating a layer of nitrocellulose lacquer onto the aluminum, which now served only as a rigid support.[1] The difference here is, rather than embossing the audio, the signal was engraving the groove onto an easily cut and grainless lacquer. This made it possible to produce a broadcast-quality recording that preserved high-frequency detail and was nearly noiseless when new. As a result, professional recording services soon abandoned the use of bare aluminum blanks, although some amateur and novelty use persisted into the 1940s.

Combinations of the two technologies addressed above involved embossing onto a soft resin-based blank with no metal or fiber substrate. Made chiefly for the emerging dictation market during World War II, the two most well known are the SoundScriber (vertical modulation) and the Gray Audograph, the latter of which, along with the CGS Rieber unit, recorded in an inches-per-second Constant Linear Velocity mode (like the modern CD/DVD - starting off faster in the center and gradually getting slower as the disc progressed towards the edge instead of recording in revolutions-per-minute. Memovox machines, like the SoundScriber recorded in a RPM type format. Cylindrical versions such as the Dictabelt applied the same technology to resin-based loops to get around the decrease of fidelity from the outside to the inside of the disc when recording in RPM/Constant Angular Velocity.

From an archival perspective, the changeover traded long-term stability for superior sound quality. A bare aluminum disc can remain unchanged indefinitely if carefully stored, while the coating on a lacquer disc or the entirety of a resin-based disc is subject to chemical deterioration, tending to shrink and become brittle due to the loss of unstable plasticizers the same as with celluloid film, which can cause the lacquer or acetate to develop cracks, split off from the aluminum base disc, and in severe cases disintegrate into an unsalvageable rubble of tiny flakes.[2]

Most recordings on bare aluminum are believed to have perished in the scrap metal drives held during World War II.[1] Aluminum was declared to be a critical war material and civilians in the US were urged to do their patriotic duty by finding and turning in anything made of it. The collected "scrap" was melted and recycled.[1]

In other fields, aluminum disc may refer to the aluminum core discs used for the "platters" in hard disk drives, or to discs used in various other products or manufacturing processes.
