What Is Aluminum Foil Width and Thickness
Different industries and different products have different requirements for the width and thickness of aluminum foil. So, what are the commonly used aluminum foil widths? Learn more.
Aluminum foil is a packaging material widely used in food, medicine, chemical and other industries. Its excellent barrier properties, moisture resistance, high temperature resistance and other characteristics have been favored by the majority of users. In practical applications, different industries and different products have different requirements for the width and thickness of aluminum foil. So, what are the commonly used aluminum foil widths? How to choose the thickness?
1. Commonly used aluminum foil widths
he width of aluminum foil is mainly determined by the user's packaging equipment and usage requirements. Common aluminum foil widths are as follows:
300mm: suitable for small packaging machines or manual packaging, suitable for small batch and multi-variety production.
450mm: suitable for medium-sized packaging machines, suitable for medium-scale production.
600mm: suitable for large packaging machines, suitable for large-scale production.
900mm: suitable for ultra-large packaging machines, suitable for ultra-large-scale production.
Of course, in addition to the above common widths, there are other special widths of aluminum foil to choose from, and the extra wide foil can be customized according to user needs.
2. Selection of aluminum foil thickness
The selection of aluminum foil thickness is mainly determined by the nature of the product, packaging requirements and use environment. Generally speaking, the thicker the aluminum foil jumbo roll , the better its barrier properties, strength and other properties, but the cost will also increase accordingly. Therefore, when choosing the thickness of aluminum foil, the following factors need to be considered comprehensively:
Nature of the product: Different products have different requirements for packaging materials. For example, food, medicine, etc. require higher barrier properties and moisture resistance, so thicker aluminum foil may need to be selected.
Packaging requirements: The higher the packaging requirements, the greater the required aluminum foil thickness. For example, if it needs to withstand high temperature cooking, pressure and other conditions, thicker aluminum foil needs to be selected.
Use environment: The use environment will also affect the thickness of the aluminum foil. For example, in a humid environment, it is necessary to select an aluminum foil with better moisture resistance, and in a high temperature environment, it is necessary to select an aluminum foil with better high temperature resistance.
Generally speaking, the thickness of aluminum foil ranges from 0.08mm to 0.2mm, and the specific thickness like 40 micron aluminium foil can be customized according to user needs.
Suggestions for aluminum foil selection
When choosing aluminum foil, in addition to considering width and thickness, you also need to pay attention to the following points:
1. Material quality: Choosing high-quality aluminum foil can ensure the packaging effect and product quality.
2. Production process: Choosing advanced production processes and equipment can ensure the quality and stability of aluminum foil.
3. Cost considerations: On the premise of meeting packaging requirements, it is necessary to comprehensively consider cost factors and choose aluminum foil with higher cost performance.
