Laser cutting technology helps the aluminum curtain wall industry!




Because the aluminum panel curtain wall has good texture, rich color and long-lasting after processing, and the appearance and shape can be diversified; it can be harmoniously combined with glass curtain wall materials and stone curtain wall materials; it is light in weight, only one-fifth of marble, which is the best choice for glass curtain wall. One-third, can greatly reduce the load of building structure and foundation; low maintenance cost, high cost performance, can resist acid rain, salt spray and various air pollutants, excellent cold and heat resistance; can resist strong ultraviolet radiation, It can maintain long-term non-fading, non-pulverizing, and long service life, so it is favored by the construction industry.

The total output value of aluminum doors, windows and curtain walls has grown


Since the total output value of the building aluminum door, window and curtain wall industry reached nearly 600 billion in 2016, the overall output value of the industry has not changed much, and it has entered a new round of relatively stable development cycle. It is not much, and more needs to be driven by innovation in the industry and the upstream market.


In 2021, the total output value of my country's building door, window and curtain wall industry is close to 650 billion yuan, which is a year of continuous steady growth except for 2017. In the growth of total output value, large-scale enterprises and industry material enterprises have contributed significantly.



China's aluminum curtain wall market accounts for 60%


After years of development, China's aluminum panel curtain wall industry has shown a rapid development trend in the production and sales of curtain walls, and has become a major country in the production and use of aluminum panel curtain walls in the world. China's curtain wall produces and installs various building curtain walls of about 55 million square meters each year, with an annual output value of nearly 120 billion. The total aluminum curtain wall market has accounted for more than 60% of the world's total.


With the continuous acceleration of urbanization in my country, the development of aluminum panel curtain walls in second- and third-tier cities has accelerated, and the demand potential for public buildings, commercial real estate, and high-end residential treasures is large, and the development space of the building curtain wall industry is expanding.




Laser Diversifies Aluminum Curtain Walls


Modern people pursue individuality and unconventionality. Architectural designers who are at the forefront of the times hope that every detail of the buildings they design can be unique. Therefore, they have unique ideas for the patterns and lines of building curtain walls. However, for complex graphics, the traditional processing method cannot be completed at one time, and it requires a combination of multiple equipment and processes to process, and the effect is often not satisfactory; while the flexible laser process can process any graphics with one device, with high speed effect. All go beyond traditional processing methods.


For thick plate metal curtain wall graphics (the workpiece in the picture below is an example), the traditional processing method of aluminum curtain wall and window grilles with a thickness of 10-25mm requires the combination of engraving machine and wire cutting to complete. The engraving machine cannot make sharp corners and wire cutting. High cost, extremely low efficiency, and limited size. If laser processing is used, one piece of equipment can be completed at one time, with high speed, low cost, good surface finish, and can process various super-large and complex patterns.

China's curtain wall industry started late but has a high starting point and a fast development speed. With the advancement of national building energy conservation work, the product structure of domestic aluminum alloy doors, windows and curtain walls is changing, and the proportion of energy-saving and environmentally friendly aluminum curtain walls will be greatly increased. Laser cutting has high precision, high efficiency, high finish, and can cut any graphics The advantages will be promising in the manufacture of aluminum doors, windows and curtain walls.
