As metal building materials, perforated panels are born with an avant-garde temperament, long life and not easily deformed, and are used in a large number of buildings, landscapes, indoor and outdoor decorations to create a stylish and modern aesthetic.

 

What is perforated panel?

Perforated plate, as the name implies, is metal with holes punched, also known as perforated plate, perforated metal, perforated screen, mostly aluminum alloy and other metal plates. It is processed by stamping machine or milling machine and has the characteristics of long service life and no deformation. Perforated metal sheets have been around for nearly 150 years and were originally developed as filters and sorters, primarily for use in the mining industry. Its use has proven to quickly expand beyond its original function as technology has evolved and has evolved to be widely used in architecture, landscaping, and interior design.

Perforated plate hole size, pattern can be carefully processed and designed according to the need, different size, density, shape of the hole, forming a different translucent sight effect, perforated plate different hole pattern. Crafting different plates to reach the right size through different cuttings. Perforation is done on CNC machines to get the desired pattern effect.

There are many materials of perforated plate, the material is mostly stainless steel plate, aluminum plate, iron plate, copper plate, etc. Most of the perforated aluminum plate seen on the market at present is perforated aluminum plate, perforated aluminum plate material light, good chemical stability, beautiful shape, elegant color, strong three-dimensional sense, good decorative effect, and easy to assemble.

Nowadays, perforated metal sheets have been used by designers in various fields, from industrial filters and sound insulation panels to architectural interior decoration and scenic wall vignettes, all of which can be seen in its figure.

The practical effects of perforated panels:

1、Produce dappled light and shadow effect

Perforated metal panels can be made in different shapes and sizes for different combinations according to the architect's needs, and the combinations are rich and varied.

 

Under the sunlight or light, the perforated panels will produce rich light and shadow changes, and this effect will make the building have a unique and dynamic visual effect. This light and shadow effect makes the relationship between the main body of the building and the outer skin more hazy, with a more integral and layered sense. The size of the hole type and the change of the hole diameter and perforation rate will also produce different light and shadow change effects, and different hole types produce different light and shadow effects.

Perforated panels are mostly used in the outer layer of outdoor buildings, with different sizes of holes to achieve changes in texture effects and a sense of hierarchy. And has a certain degree of light transmission, like a "veil" to ensure good lighting and at the same time reveal a little mysterious atmosphere.

 

2、Sound absorption, reduce the sound level

In the field of acoustics, sound absorption is one of the important measures to control noise and improve indoor sound quality, and perforated panels have exactly this advantage. Studies have shown that perforated metal helps to reduce the sound level, and its acoustic properties can help people reduce the impact of noise on health. Buildings using perforated metal panels in front of their façades can bring 29% energy savings in perforated panel acoustic structures.

An acoustical structure with an air layer or porous material behind a perforated sheet and fixed to a rigid wall can be seen as a resonant system consisting of masses and springs. When the frequency of the incident sound wave and the resonant frequency of the system agree, the air in the perforated plate vibrates and rubs fiercely, strengthening the absorption effect and forming an absorption peak that significantly attenuates the sound energy. When far from the resonant frequency, the absorption effect is smaller. If the perforated plate is placed after the porous material to increase the acoustic resistance, it will make the absorption band of the structure widen.

 

In the design process of concert halls, cinemas, multi-purpose halls, etc., acoustic structure as the main technical means of sound quality design and noise control, has gained very wide application.

 

3、Transparent view

The Chinese garden philosophy is to have reality in emptiness and to hide without leakage, and perforated panels can perfectly meet this demand of courtyard landscaping.

 

Different metal plates in landscape design are cut to suitable size and perforated on CNC punching machine. The hole types are round, square, prismatic, triangular, pentagram, and oblong holes, etc. The pattern can be designed according to computer numerical control.

 

4、Light transmission

Perforated panels under light and shadow, a wide range of design styles and the ability to express colorful colors, patterns, textures, sandwich and surface effects, opening up the infinite possibilities of the material.

 

Applications of window perforated panels.

Integration with architecture: white perforated panel space hovers between concealment and semi-concealment, under the light and shadow, time seems to stand still at this moment, clean and pure, such as the JIN CO LTD office building in Maebashi, Japan, where white perforated panels are used extensively in the corridor and building façade, the folded perforated panels form a unique texture with the white cement wall on the façade, bringing people a unique spatial experience.

The design and application of perforated panels are so flexible and versatile that they are everywhere. It is actually a perforated metal plate, but the ordinary metal plate, with different processing, can be used in a variety of ways under the designer's hand to create a different rhythm and architectural texture. Beautiful and varied patterns, amorous and romantic - perforated sheet has undoubtedly become a material that landscape designers love to use, and the landscapes and buildings built with it have also become a popular spot in today's society, bringing a surprise to the city we live in.
