Mental Aluminium 5052 5083 3003 cnc Hardware Fittings Parts for Marine cars

When comparing aluminum extrusion and CNC machining, it is crucial to understand their unique advantages and applications. Aluminum extrusion is known for its ability to produce long, uniform cross sections with complex cross sectional shapes. The process is highly efficient for mass producing specific profiles, so mass production is cost-effective. It is therefore suitable for complex profile applications where the strength and lightweight properties of aluminium are crucial.

• 5000 Series 5052, 5056: Medium-strength alloy, corrosion-resistant, good fusibility. Used in chemical industry piping, machine parts, camera lens tube.
• 6000 Series:
  • 6061: Medium strength structural alloy with excellent corrosion resistance, weldable, good processability. Used in road vehicles, ships, marine transportation equipment, road materials, building materials, sporting goods.
  • 6063: Excellent in corrosion resistance, surface treatment, and extrudability. Used in building materials, construction materials, decorative materials, home appliance materials, and other general products.
• 7000 Series:
  • 7003: Structural alloy for medium-strength welding. Used in vehicle, automobile, and locomotive parts.
  • 7075: High strength alloy called Super Duralumin, with poor corrosion resistance and fusion bonding. Used for high-strength materials such as aircraft and other mechanical parts, sporting goods.
• 8000 Series: 8090, 8091 practical alloy is very little used.
• 9000 Series: High-performance alloys, adding special elements (such as rare earth elements) with super-strong performance or some special properties.

The different grades of aluminum used for CNC machining are well suited to small and medium series production and can be adapted to various design changes with minimal setup changes. This method is ideal for applications that require precise dimensions, complex internal features, or specific surface finishes.
