End-to-End Integrated Manufacturing Competencies
1. Die Design & CAD/CAM
DFM & Metal Flow SimulationOur in-house toolroom machines hot-work H13 tool steel using precision wire EDM and high-speed CNC milling centers, backed by finite element metal flow simulation.
- Up to 250 mm circumscribing circle diameter (CCD)
- Stress analysis for wall thickness and deflection optimization
- First prototype trial samples delivered in 10–14 business days
2. Alloy Metallurgy & T6 Aging
6063-T66 / 6005A-T6 / 6082-T6Cast exclusively from prime virgin primary aluminum billets. Every batch is verified via optical emission spectrometry and subjected to controlled artificial precipitation aging.
- EN AW-6063 T66 (Superior surface finish and corrosion resilience)
- EN AW-6005A T6 (High tensile 260 MPa strength for heavy-load rails)
- Homogeneous 12–15 Webster hardness guaranteed across all batches
3. 5-Axis CNC Profile Machining
Precision Cutting, Slots & HolesAutomated multi-axis machining centers transform raw profile extrusions into jobsite-ready kits, eliminating time-consuming drilling and cutting on the roof.
- ±0.5 mm cut-to-length tolerance from 100 mm to 7,500 mm
- Longitudinal slot punching, countersinking, and grounding holes
- Precision 45°/90° mitre cutting and certified aluminum TIG welding
4. Anodizing & Private-Label
Qualanod Certified Surface FinishAutomated vertical and horizontal anodizing lines provide minimum 15–20 µm architectural oxide layers for 25-year outdoor atmospheric resilience, customized under your branding.
- Natural silver or deep architectural black matte anodizing
- In-line fiber laser etching of customer logo and part tracking codes
- Custom export crating, barcoded cartons, and private-label strap branding
From CAD Blueprint to Jobsite Delivery: 6-Stage OEM Roadmap
CAD Blueprint & Mutual NDA
Submit your DWG, DXF, or 3D STEP drawings. A legally binding mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) is executed prior to engineering review to protect your proprietary IP.
DFM & Tooling Optimization
Design for Manufacturing (DFM) review: wall thicknesses, extrusion tongue ratios, moment of inertia (Ix, Iy), and screw boss tolerances are optimized for maximum press throughput.
Die Machining & Prototype Samples
Within 10–14 business days, the H13 steel die is completed and test-pressed. Initial extruded samples are CMM measured and dispatched to your engineering office for validation.
Mass Extrusion & T6 Aging
Upon sample sign-off, full production is scheduled on presses from 1,100 to 2,500 MT, followed by artificial aging at 180°C for 8 hours to reach certified T6 mechanical hardness.
CNC Machining & Qualanod Anodizing
Profiles are CNC cut to project lengths, punched with mounting slots, and immersed in Qualanod-certified anodizing tanks for a minimum 15µm natural silver or black finish.
Private Label Packaging & Dispatch
Laser etching of your brand logo and part numbers, custom barcoded packaging, and dispatch under 0% EU Duty (A.TR) directly to your European or international logistics terminal.
Custom Extrusion Tolerances & Production Limits
Solar mounting profile extrusions are produced strictly according to DIN EN 755-9 and high-precision DIN EN 12020-2 standards.
| Parameter | Standard Range / Envelope | SolarAlu Engineering Specification |
|---|---|---|
| Profile Outer Diameter (CCD) | Ø 10 mm – Ø 250 mm | From compact retaining clamps to heavy 250 mm ground-mount main beam rails |
| Wall Thickness Range | 1.10 mm – 8.00 mm | Locally reinforced flange thicknesses engineered for high fastener torque resistance |
| Length Cutting Range | 100 mm – 7,500 mm | From short mini rail segments to continuous 6,200 mm container-optimized rails |
| Length Tolerance | ±0.5 mm (CNC Optical Stops) | High-precision automated stops eliminate on-site fitting and field cutting |
| Mechanical Hardness | Min. 12 Webster (6063) / Min. 14 Webster (6005A) | Full T6 precipitation heat treatment ensures structural elastic stability under snow loads |
| Anodizing Layer Thickness | 15 µm – 20 µm (Qualanod Certified) | Resistant to C4/C5 marine coastal environments and industrial ammonia exposure |

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common inquiries regarding European customs regimes (0% duty A.TR), lead times, structural Eurocode 9 compliance, and MOQ.
SolarAlu (by SerProfil) is a specialized solar mounting manufacturer operating out of Istanbul and the Dilovasi / Gebze industrial hub in Turkey. We operate modern extrusion lines with an annual capacity of 12,000 metric tons, dedicated to European, Middle Eastern, and North African export markets.
No. SolarAlu operates exclusively as a B2B manufacturer supplying solar EPC contractors, solar distributors, commercial installers, and utility project developers. Products are supplied in master bundles, full pallets, truckloads (FTL), or full containers (FCL).
All structural products carry CE marking under EN 1090-1 / EN 1090-3 (Execution Class EXC2), Eurocode 9 (EN 1999-1-1) design calculations, Qualanod certified anodizing, ISO 9001:2015, and EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificates.
Under the European Union – Turkey Customs Union agreement, industrial goods manufactured in Turkey are admitted into all 27 EU member states with 0% customs duty when accompanied by an A.TR Movement Certificate.
Chinese aluminum extrusions face EU anti-dumping tariffs between 21.2% and 32.1% plus long maritime transit times (45–60 days). In contrast, Turkish profiles enter duty-free (0%) via A.TR, reach European job sites in 4–6 business days by road trailer or Ro-Ro, and carry significantly lower carbon footprints under the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).
Full Truck Load (FTL) and Full Container Load (FCL) orders processed under the official Turkish export customs regime are invoiced at 0% VAT (VAT exempt). For smaller trial batches or samples, flexible EXW factory pickup with standard invoicing is available.
