Profile systems manufacturer

Our profile systems are available in a wide variety of different forms, such as extruded profiles, roll-profiled and rolled profiles, drawn, bent, surface finished or assembled. Our standard versions are:

• Roll-profiled or rolled
• Bent
• Pressed or extruded
• Drawn
• Assembled
• Wet lacquered or powder coated
• Coated with carbon wood - galvanic coating, such as chrome, gold or ruthenium
• CNC machined

The choice of the most suitable method depends on various factors - including the materials from which the profile systems are to be made, the field of application and the further processing possibilities.

Roll-formed profiles are shaped step by step into the desired form by suitable forming rolls, from one roll stand to the next. The number of roll stands depends on the geometry of the profile. This technique is used for both open and closed profiles made from strip material. The raw material used is strip made of, for example, steel, aluminium, brass, copper, or steel with a wide variety of surface coatings such as zinc, paint or similar.

One of IsoProfil's specialities is roll-formed spacers for the manufacture of insulating glass. Notes on possible dimensional limits:

• max. profile cross-section (circumscribed circle) diameter 160 mm
• Strip thicknesses from 0.1 to 3.6 mm
• Strip widths up to 210 mm

Special processes for manufacturing seam-joined profiles are laser welding, high-frequency welding, longitudinal seam bonding and composite profiling. Composite profiling, also known as co-profiling with strips of different materials, e.g. stainless steel/polycarbonate, is used today in the production of spacer profiles with low thermal conductivity for insulating glass applications. For special tasks, please contact our application engineering team.

• Absolutely diffusion-proof thanks to the metal back facing the outside of the glass
• The lateral position of the laser weld seam on spacers, specially developed by IsoProfil, ensures the seamless appearance that our customers value so highly.
• Controlled minimisation of moisture diffusion into the insulating glass unit over the guaranteed service life
• Suitable for any profile processing – whether manual, fitted with corner brackets or bent on high-tech equipment
• Futuristic design - with the patented lateral weld seam, our spacers are among the market-leaders worldwide.
• Leading insulating glass manufacturers have been successfully using our spacers for many years

We manufacture our profiles predominantly from aluminium, steel or stainless steel as well as brass and copper. Further materials, such as plastic or carbon, are also used, where necessary. Each material offers individual advantages. For example, an aluminium profile is highly corrosion-resistant, a stainless steel profile is particularly durable and a copper profile is electrically conductive. We will be happy to advise you on the various materials and to help you find the right profile system for your requirements.

Profile systems are increasingly being used in industry, machine engineering and automation thanks to their advantageous modular system. The resulting benefits are savings in planning, construction and assembly times.

When it comes to drawing, or more precisely recalibrating, we distinguish between two different applications:

- Recalibration of profiles already produced using rolling or extrusion technology - Forming of pre-fabricated raw profile cross-sections (round, oval, square) into higher-quality cross-sections We draw and calibrate according to your specifications based on drawings or samples. Describe your application to us.

Bending and forming profiles and tubes made of various materials to specification and in consultation with partners is one of the delicate shaping operations on IsoProfil products. Try out our profile bending centre!

Radii on difficult components from ? down to 1 mm are possible. The geometry, the choice of material and its condition play a decisive role here.
