Strengthening technique of Thin Aluminum extruded Profile
Dear All,
As the 8020 T-slot extruded aluminum Profiles are not available in my country so thinking of using windows/doors Aluminum extrusions to make my third CNC Machine...
I need ideas how to improve the strength of such Aluminum profiles.
1- can we press fit the wood in it?
2- Filling with concrete?
Any idea is highly appreciated... Please also include the drawback of idea...:cheers:
I guess there are a few methods:
- Ask someone to buy it locally and ship the T slot beams to you. Perhaps this is easier than you think..
- Used industrial square tubing with 5 - 6 mm walls instead
- build up beams using pieces epoxied together
- Start with wood, and glue Al plate to the outside walls
