In fact, the profile is a hollow section made of iron, which is used for the strength of the structure. Different forms of profiles are produced and marketed, each of which has different uses in industry and construction. In general, profiles can be divided into two categories: industrial and construction.
As it is clear from the name of these profiles, it is called a group of products that are used in construction. This product is used in making aluminum doors and windows. Construction profiles have several forms:
Hot rolled profile:
This product is in the shape of a can and is made of hot rolled steel ingots.
Cold rolled profile:
This type of profile is produced by forming steel sheets by bending and pressing, and its appearance is stud-shaped. The products produced by this method are suitable for light construction works, such as beams, door frames and studs.
Composite profile:
Composite profile is obtained from the combination of hot rolled profile and cold rolled profile.
Industrial profiles
Another category of profiles are industrial profiles, which have various uses in industries such as automobile manufacturing, military industries, etc. due to their low weight and high resistance.
Industrial can
Industrial can or heavy profile has different applications in large metal structures, bridges, advertising boards and military industries. Buildings produced in factories need metal columns and boxes in different parts; In such cases, an industrial can is used.
Of course, industrial cans are also used in the construction of huge trusses, and this kind of cans are used in various ways in the construction of industrial equipment and machinery.
sofa box
A sofa box, also called a light profile, is another type of profile that is widely used in the manufacture of furniture, bicycles, household appliances, exhausts, condos, etc., due to its diverse and excellent characteristics. The price of light profile is declared by weight.
Furniture box is produced from cold sheet with a thickness of 0.7 to 1.5 mm. This product can have a triangular, square, circular or combined cross-section.
The most common furniture profiles are furniture cans with a square cross-section or light cans with a rectangular cross-section, which are particularly popular among consumers.
column can
Column box is one of the most practical parts that is used in the construction of sheds, workshop structures, warehouses and building columns. These types of cans are divided into two categories: construction column and industrial column
What is a profile?
In iron-related industries, a steel section that is used to increase the strength of various structures is called a profile or metal profile. Metal profiles are divided into two main categories, industrial and construction. In another division, profiles are separated based on the shape of their cross section. Accordingly, profiles are:
open
closed
The main difference between profile and can
Profile can be considered as a general name for metal sections with a long length and constant cross-section throughout their length. Therefore, the most important difference between the can and the profile can be found in the cross section of the cans. Because cans are actually a group of profiles that are produced with a square or rectangular cross-section and in a hollow form.
In addition to the shape of the cross-section, one can find many differences between the profile and the can in terms of structure, application, chemical composition, pressure tolerance, thickness, degree of flexibility, elasticity, etc. Although profiles and cans are both used in various industries such as construction, automobile manufacturing, industrial and agricultural machinery manufacturing, etc., the characteristics and properties of cans have caused differences in their applications.
The difference between the use of cans and profiles
The main difference between profile and can can be seen in their application. Due to its suitable weight, high flexibility and formability, suitable thickness and type of cross-section, iron can is most widely used in the construction of doors and windows and construction applications. Due to the weldability of cans, perfect and durable welds can be created in them. Meanwhile, types of profiles such as rebars, studs, beams, etc., are widely used in car manufacturing, construction projects, production of connections such as bolts and nuts, construction of sheds and tankers, etc. Therefore, the range of industries and applications of the profile is much more than that of the can.
