Aluminum Alloy prototype processing, more advantages with CNC cost

when processing aluminum alloy prototypes, there are usually two processing methods: CNC machining and 3d printing, CNC prototype processing uses raw materials to directly process the required samples through CNC machine tools, while 3d printing prints the aluminum alloy prototype by layered superposition, so which cost of these two processing methods is more advantageous?

to make an aluminum alloy prototype by 3d printing, the price is actually more expensive, because the 3d printer that can print the aluminum alloy prototype is expensive. According to relevant sources, one can achieve the accuracy of the aluminum alloy prototype. The price of 05mm 3d printers is often as high as millions of yuan, so the aluminum alloy prototype is made of 3d printing, and the cost is relatively high; However, there are also cheaper prices in the market, but such an aluminum alloy prototype will not be satisfactory in terms of accuracy.

when CNC machining an aluminum alloy prototype, the cost mainly depends on the complexity of the part and material consumption. The more complex the part is, the more work needs to be split and programmed. The more complicated the post-processing process, the more working hours are required, and the higher the production cost. Under normal circumstances, the volume of the aluminum alloy prototype is relatively large, such as the aluminum alloy fan Leaf prototype processed by the extension model, the aluminum alloy LED Box prototype, etc.

So, CNC machining will have more cost advantage when processing aluminum alloy prototypes.
