Animation of aluminium extrusion process

We have added an animation illustrating a complete cycle of aluminium extrusion production, including die heating and transfer, billet heating, transfer to press, extrusion, cooling, sawing, stretching, stacking and ageing.

The animation is available in Flash format (SWF) and as a video on YouTube and is released for re-use under a Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike license.
