At AME System, aluminium profiles are supplied not only as raw extrusions but as precision structural components prepared for practical use in industrial systems.
Our aluminium T-slot profiles form the foundation of modular frames used in manufacturing, automation, and technical workspaces. To support efficient installation and consistent assembly, AME System provides cutting and machining services that prepare profiles according to customer requirements.
This approach allows customers to receive profiles that are ready for assembly, reducing fabrication time and improving build accuracy.
Aluminium Profile Range
AME System stocks 30 Series and 40 Series T-slot aluminium profiles, supplied in a durable anodised finish. These modular systems allow structures to be assembled, expanded, or modified without welding.
Both series use a 10 mm slot width, enabling the integration of fasteners, panels, and accessories directly into the profile structure.
30 Series Aluminium Profiles
The 30 Series features 30 mm modular dimensions, making it suitable for lighter structural applications.
Common uses include:
- Workstation frames
- Small equipment structures
- Laboratory systems
- Light-duty automation frames
Typical profile sizes include:
- 30 × 30
- 30 × 60
- 60 × 60
The system allows designers and installers to build lightweight yet durable modular frames while maintaining compatibility with a wide range of T-slot components.
40 Series Aluminium Profiles
For more demanding structural requirements, the 40 Series provides increased rigidity and load capacity with 40 mm modular dimensions.
These profiles are widely used for:
-
Industrial workstations
-
Machine frames and bases
-
Automation cells
-
Equipment guarding structures
Common profile sizes include:
-
40 × 40
-
40 × 80
-
80 × 80
The larger cross-sections provide greater strength and stability, making the system suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications.
Modular Compatibility
Both profile ranges are designed for modular compatibility, allowing configurations such as 30×60 and 40×80 profiles to integrate within the same structural framework.
This flexibility allows systems to be:
-
Expanded as operational requirements change
-
Modified without structural rework
-
Configured for specific equipment or workspace layouts
Profile Lengths and Ordering Options
AME System supplies aluminium profiles in multiple formats to suit both small orders and larger projects: B2B and B2C. (See our Case Studies)
Full Length Supply
Profiles are stocked as 6 metre lengths, suitable for customers who prefer to cut and machine components themselves.
Cut-to-Length Profiles
Profiles can be supplied cut to any specified length, allowing components to arrive ready for assembly and without off cut costs!
Online Ordering
Customers can order aluminium profiles online in lengths up to 3 metres as well add the machining requirements through the AME System website.
Longer Length Orders
Profiles up to 6 metres can be ordered directly via email or phone for project-specific requirements: sales@amesystem.com.au
Precision Machining Services
Beyond supplying profiles, AME System provides machining services that prepare extrusions for structural assembly and component integration.
Typical machining operations include:
-
End tapping for threaded fasteners (See how its done on our Facebook)
-
Precision drilling for brackets and mounting points
-
Counterbores and countersunks for flush connections (See SHCS drilling on our Facebook).
-
Cutting aluminium profiles from 6m lengths (See Facebook post)
These machining processes allow profiles to be delivered prepared for immediate installation, eliminating the need for additional fabrication during system assembly.
Please see pricing example also available on the product pages:
Pre-Machined Profile Kits
For larger builds or repeat installations, AME System can supply profiles as pre-machined assembly kits.
These kits typically include:
-
Profiles cut to specified lengths
-
Components prepared according to the project design
Pre-machined kits are commonly used for:
-
Industrial workstation frames
-
Machine enclosures and guarding
-
Production line equipment
-
Automation structures
By receiving components ready for assembly, customers can reduce installation time, alignment issues, and on-site machining requirements.
Why Machining Improves System Assembly
While T-slot systems are modular, machining significantly improves the efficiency and consistency of the final structure.
Receiving profiles that are already cut and machined allows installers to focus on assembly rather than component preparation.
Key advantages include:
-
Faster installation
-
Consistent alignment across structures
-
Reduced fabrication time on site
-
Cleaner and more accurate builds
For many industrial projects, these benefits translate directly into shorter project timelines and improved reliability of assembled systems.
Supporting Complete Modular Systems
Aluminium profiles form only one part of a modular structural system. AME System also supplies the components required to build complete frames and workstations.
Workstation Systems
AME System profiles are widely used in industrial workstations, operator stations, and production benches, where modular design allows structures to be configured for different tasks.
T-Slot Fasteners
Correct fasteners are essential for assembling aluminium profile frames. AME System supplies T-nuts, bolts, washers designed for both 30 and 40 Series systems.
Profile Accessories
Accessories expand the functionality of aluminium profile systems and allow structures to be adapted for different applications.
Available components include:
-
End caps
-
Hinges
-
Handles
-
Panel mounting hardware
-
Cable management accessories
Custom Frame and Workstation Solutions
For specialised applications, AME System can assist with custom aluminium profile systems, including workstation frames, machine bases, and equipment structures supplied as cut and machined kits ready for assembly.
