From Design to Delivery: The Custom Aluminum Profile Journey

In the modern aluminum extrusion industry, customization is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. Across sectors like architecture, transportation, energy, and machinery, companies demand tailor-made aluminum solutions that precisely fit their technical and aesthetic requirements. That’s where Kenan Metal stands out: delivering high-quality aluminum profiles with speed, precision, and a strong commitment to customer satisfaction.

With over 25 years of experience, Kenan Metal has become a trusted name in the aluminum profile sector, offering a seamless journey from design to delivery. In this article, we’ll take you through the stages of creating custom aluminum profiles, and how Kenan Metal combines innovation, quality, and environmentally friendly production practices to meet the demands of a global market.

The Need for Custom Aluminum Profiles

Standard aluminum profiles often fall short when it comes to meeting the unique structural or aesthetic demands of modern projects. In today’s fast-paced industries, there is a growing need for more flexible, performance-oriented solutions. This is where custom aluminum profiles come into play, offering tailor-made answers to design and engineering challenges.

Companies across various sectors choose Kenan Metal because its custom profiles are engineered to deliver exact technical specifications, including complex cross-section geometries and demanding mechanical or surface characteristics. Every detail, from material behavior under stress to finish quality, is meticulously considered to match the application’s requirements.

These custom solutions not only fulfill functional criteria but also enhance the overall product design and structural integrity. Whether for a modular facade system, a lightweight automotive part, or a uniquely shaped solar panel frame, Kenan Metal’s profiles help drive innovation and improve efficiency across industries.

Step 1: Design & Consultation

The process begins with a design consultation, where Kenan Metal’s engineering team collaborates closely with the client to understand functional needs, tolerances, and usage environments. 3D modeling and simulations help fine-tune the aluminum profile design before moving into production.

Services Offered:

• CAD design assistance

• Material selection guidance

• Feasibility analysis for extrusion

Step 2: Tooling & Die Production

Once the design is approved, custom dies are produced in Kenan Metal’s in-house tooling workshop. These dies are manufactured with high precision to ensure consistency and accuracy throughout the extrusion process.

• Fast tooling turnaround

• High tolerance control

• Optimization for extrusion flow

Step 3: Aluminum Extrusion

Using advanced extrusion lines, including a 10-inch profile machine, Kenan Metal extrudes aluminum billets into the desired profile shapes. Temperature, pressure, and extrusion speed are precisely controlled for consistent results.

• Use of premium-grade aluminum alloys

• Capability to produce complex and large profiles

• ISO-standard process control and traceability

Step 4: Surface Finishing

Kenan Metal provides multiple surface finishing options that improve appearance, corrosion resistance, and overall performance. This aligns with the company’s goal to offer high-quality aluminum profiles that stand the test of time.

Available Surface Treatments:

• Anodizing

• Powder Coating

• Mechanical polishing

These finishes are produced with environmentally friendly production methods, including energy-efficient curing ovens and eco-conscious paint formulations.

Step 5: Quality Control & Logistics

Each custom aluminum profile goes through rigorous quality checks. Dimensional accuracy, mechanical strength, and surface quality are inspected to meet both international standards and client-specific tolerances.

• Full documentation and certification

• Packaging optimized for international transport

• Fast and reliable delivery schedules
