Benefits of Bosch Extrusion

STRONG

The lightweight yet durable nature of our Bosch Rexroth extruded aluminum kits is truly remarkable. Specially engineered to provide high strength-to-weight ratios, these kits offer superior fit and finish that surpasses industry standards. The aluminum extrusion used in our kits is precisely manufactured to ensure maximum strength and stability, while still being incredibly lightweight.

 

MODULAR

The simple T-slot, bolt-together design of our Airline Hydraulics and Bosch Rexroth extruded aluminum kits offers immense flexibility and convenience. One of the standout features of this design is that it allows you to preassemble the structure in one location, break it down, and easily reassemble it at the final site.

 

VERSATILE

The versatility of Airline's aluminum structural framing kits knows no bounds. Whether you're a DIY enthusiast or a professional builder, these kits can be used for projects of any scale. From the smallest picture frames and cabinets to larger structures like ceiling grids, museum exhibits, and even modular houses, the possibilities are endless.

 

REUSABLE

With various connectors and accessories, the framing can be bolted together rather than welded, nailed, or permanently fastened. This provides fast assembly, easy reconfiguration, and the ability to reuse materials.

 

AESTHETIC

The anodized aluminum elements in our kits offer a sleek and polished appearance, giving your structure a high-tech and modern look. These elements are not only visually appealing but also resistant to scratches and corrosion, ensuring the longevity of your build.

 

 

About Our Extruded Aluminum Kits


First, let's talk about what you get when you order an Airline Hydraulics and Bosch Rexroth extruded aluminum kit. Each kit comes with a detailed 3D CAD drawing of your design, a comprehensive bill of materials, and every single component you'll need to build your structure or machine.

The packaging is well-organized, with each piece of aluminum extrusion individually packaged and labeled in separate bundleswith part numbers and quantities. This meticulous packaging system allows you to easily match up each component with the bill of materials and work efficiently. Here are some of the common elements found in our kits:

Assembly

After opening your box, the first step is organizing all the special tools. You'll need a tape measure, proper size Allen wrenches, a hammer, and T handles for your Allen wrench that provide optimal torque for the bolts. Once you have the tools ready, it's time to start assembling your kit. The extruded aluminum pieces are extremely user-friendly, and the pre-machining done in our advanced manufacturing facility ensures that everything fits together perfectly.

 

Simply follow the 3D CAD drawing and use the bill of materials to match up each piece. As you progress through the assembly process, you'll find that every component is easily identifiable and a breeze to work with. The individual packaging and labeling system help ensure that you don't lose any pieces or waste time searching for the right component. The aluminum structural framing pieces fit together snugly, and the kit is designed to be easily assembled by anyone.
