Techniques

What started with a small extrusion press in 1975 is now a large modern machine shop in which we manufacture a fully-finished and complete product. For clients Mifa is therefore a one-stop-shop for precision extrusion, machining, surface treatment and assembly. If we don’t have a specific technique in house then we engage the expertise of others. Even in that case, as a client you therefore only have one point of contact: Mifa.

Precision extrusion profiles of the highest quality

For many decades, Mifa has been the benchmark when it comes to precision extrusion. We are a specialist in producing the most complex aluminum extrusion profiles. Our extrusion profiles are used in many products and markets:

Are you currently designing a product and looking for a partner that can help and advise you with the development of your profile, component or product? Our engineers would love to help and advise you.
Read below what they can do for you and what you may gain.

Mifa is the specialist when it comes to aluminium machining and magnesium profiles. We undertake every imaginable machining process in our modern CNC-controlled machine shop, which has around 25 machines. Over the years we have developed efficient machining for very precise and complex products.

Mifa specialises in custom aluminum extrusion profiles with exceptional precision from +/- 0.02 mm. Together with the optimal aluminium surface treatment for each application, the possibilities are unprecedented.

Aluminum is a versatile high-tech material, but without the right treatment you may be faced with corrosion, wear and tear, poor conductivity or friction. You can prevent this with the right aluminium surface treatment! Mifa has the expertise and knowhow to apply the right surface treatment for every situation. Next to surface treatment, choosing the right alloy contributes to the quality of the final product. At Mifa, we even have aerospace aluminium alloys like the 6061, 6082, and 7075 alloy.

Surface treatment to aluminium provides, among other things:

Improved functionality;
Increased longevity;
Protection;
Reduced wear and friction;
Electrical insulation or conduction.

Assembly

In our assembly department, we assemble components into semi-finished or complete products. These often involve Mifa components and components supplied by the client or purchased externally. This allows us to assemble the profiles we produce into complete end products.

Magnesium Technology

Components that are both strong and light are of great importance in many markets. Magnesium is a lightweight metal with very good material properties. It is 35% lighter than aluminium and 80% lighter than steel. The magnesium used by Mifa is also at least 20% stronger than the conventional aluminium used in construction, related to the specific mass of the materials. Mifa has put a lot of research into magnesium technology in order to discover all the advantages when using it for profiles.

Other Techniques

Mifa prefers to take responsibility from start to finish when it comes to the development and production of aluminium and magnesium profiles. Our specific knowledge and experience with precision extrusion, surface treatment, machining, and all the other processes result in an optimum product. And, of course, transparency for you as a customer.
