Aluminum extrusion profile for 3D printer
40 Series Extrusion Profile for 3D Printers
40 series extrusion profile (also referred to as 40 series aluminum extrusions, as they are primarily made from aluminum) is a structural component used in the frame of a 3D printer. Extrusions are commonly utilized to build the printer’s frame, moving carriages, stands, and other structural elements. They provide the necessary strength and stability for the entire construction, ensuring a solid and durable base for 3D printing operations.

What is a 40 Series Extrusion Profile?
A 40 series extrusion profile, also known as a 40x40 mm aluminum extrusion, is a structural aluminum profile with a square cross-section measuring 40 mm x 40 mm. This profile is widely used in various industries and is commonly applied to create structural elements such as frames, carriages, work surfaces, stands, and more.
Uses and Advantages of 40 Series Extrusion Profile
One of the key advantages of 40 series extrusion profile is their lightweight design. The aluminum construction makes them light, contributing to the portability and ease of use of 3D printers.
They also offer excellent flexibility. These extrusion profile can be easily cut and joined to the desired dimensions, allowing you to build frames of different sizes and configurations for various 3D printer models. For instance, if you want to make your printer more organized, they can be used to secure and manage cables, helping maintain a neat and safe 3D printer design.
40 series profile is widely available on the market, and while it may take some time and assembly skills to create a 3D printer frame using them, the result will be a stable and functional printer with the ability to be customized to meet your specific needs.

40 series extrusion profile is commonly available for purchase and is widely used in the manufacturing of various devices and equipment, including 3D printers. Their use allows for the creation of sturdy and stable frames as well as other structural elements.
How to Choose the Right 40 Series Extrusion Profile
Determine the required length of the profile based on the dimensions of your project. Typically, extrusion profile is sold in standard lengths, and you can cut it to the needed size. Keep in mind that assembling short profile may require additional connectors.
40 series extrusion profile has a square cross-section of 40x40 mm. While this is the standard size, there are also profile with other dimensions (e.g., 20x20 mm, 30x30 mm, etc.). Choose the profile that matches your needs for rigidity and space.
Consider how easily the profile can be installed and reconfigured if necessary. More flexible mounting systems may be preferable if you anticipate the need to modify the structure in the future.
Think about how you plan to connect the profile and what accessories (such as corner connectors, bolts, and nuts) you will need to build the desired structure. Ensure that these components are compatible with the chosen profile. To verify if the fastening elements are suitable for your printer, pay attention to the profile's slots or the threading on the fastening components themselves.
