Producing dual cavity pour and debridge thermal barriers

The Azon dual cavity thermal barrier

The adaptation of conventional single cavity extrusions to dual cavity profiles is gaining in popularity among manufacturers of architectural aluminum storefront and curtain wall.

By adding a second thermal barrier cavity in a profile, the U-factor may be lowered as much as 25 percent—a very significant overall improvement for meeting ever-increasing stringent energy codes.

Credit for this innovation goes to the designers of products who saw an opportunity to make improvements by employing their existing processing machinery— the Azon Lancer™ (for producing a mechanical lock), Fillameter™ and Bridgemill™— at very little additional cost.

The Tornado III™ dynamic mixers on the Azon pouring machines ensure the two-component structural polymers are mixed properly to produce quality thermal barrier product (the air Tornado II™mixer type is used on standard, manual machinery).

The Bridgemill™ is employed in the third and final step in the thermal barrier process—removal of the metal bridge from the bottom of the channel.
