Synopsis Aluminium, the second most plentiful metallic element on the earth, became an economic competitor in engineering applications as recently as the end of 19th century. It was become a metal for its time. Aluminium possesses many characteristics that make it highly compatible with recycling. Aluminium is resistant to corrosion and it thus retains a high level of metal value after use, exposure, or storage. Once produced, aluminium can be considered a permanent resource for recycling, preferably in to similar products. The present book covers the need within the industrial and academic communities for up-to-date information about production of aluminium and extrusion process due to the ever-increasing use of this technology. The book provides concepts in the different areas of extrusion technology. It is hoped that its presentation will be very helpful to new entrepreneurs, technocrats, research scholars, libraries and existing units.
