Activities Assembly of Aluminium Components and Subassemblies

From aluminium component to complete assembly

An extruded aluminium profile is often only one element of the final product. A functional component or assembly may also require other materials, purchased parts, fasteners and custom-made components.

At Aluminium Kety Emmi, individual elements can be combined into an assembled component, subassembly or complete assembly, ready for direct use or further integration into the customer’s final product. Assembly of aluminium with other materials already forms part of the company’s manufacturing capabilities.

From individual part to assembled product

The basis of an assembly can be an extruded aluminium profile that is cut, machined, surface-treated and subsequently combined with additional elements.

Depending on product requirements, assemblies may include:

  • aluminium and other metal components
  • plastic parts
  • fastening elements
  • screws, nuts, washers and rivets
  • inserts and spacers
  • seals
  • standard purchased components
  • custom-made components
  • other functional elements

The result is a more complete product or assembly with a higher level of integration, ready to be incorporated into the customer’s downstream manufacturing process.

Fewer suppliers. Less complexity. One partner.

The added value of assembly goes far beyond the assembly operation itself.

Producing a complete assembly requires different components to be available in the right quality and quantity at the agreed time. This requires coordination of purchasing, suppliers, quality, logistics and production.

Aluminium Kety Emmi’s comprehensive aluminium processing offering already covers machining, surface treatment, assembly, quality control and logistics, supported by a managed supply chain.

For components that are not manufactured in-house, purchasing can be organised and the parts incorporated into the final assembly in accordance with project requirements.

Instead of managing multiple suppliers, the customer can entrust an agreed part of the supply chain to one responsible partner.

Simplifying our customers' supply chains

By taking responsibility for multiple processes and supplying an assembly rather than an individual part, we can help customers reduce supply-chain complexity.

This can mean:

  • fewer direct suppliers
  • fewer separate purchasing processes
  • fewer incoming material flows
  • less coordination of individual components
  • reduced internal logistics complexity
  • fewer in-house assembly operations
  • one point of contact for the agreed assembly

The customer therefore purchases not just an individual aluminium component, but a greater part of the solution.

Higher integration. Higher added value.

Our goal is to progressively add value to the aluminium profile through different manufacturing processes.

This approach is consistent with Aluminium Kety Emmi’s ambition to become a European centre of excellence for comprehensive technological solutions for aluminium components.

  1. Extruded profile
  2. Machined component
  3. Surface-treated component
  4. Assembly or subassembly
  5. Ready-to-install product

We manage the complexity. You receive the solution.

By combining CNC machining, surface treatment, sourcing of additional components, assembly, quality control and logistics, we can take responsibility for a larger part of the process from aluminium semi-finished product to assembled product.

One partner. Multiple technologies. Less complexity for the customer.
