How Much Do Aluminum Profiles For Cost?

1. The shape of aluminum profiles (size, thickness, material)

The larger the size of the aluminum profile, the more raw materials are required and the higher the price. Different aluminum profiles have different application ranges. Some heavy industrial profiles are very large, and the more materials are used and the thicker the thickness. Some thin aluminum profiles use less materials and the thinner the thickness.

The price will be different depending on the material. High-quality aluminum alloys such as 6061, 7075, etc. are relatively expensive because the ratio of the synthesized metal and metal is different, and the price of precious metals is relatively expensive. The general aluminum alloy 6063 has a high cost performance and is chosen by more people.

2. Surface treatment of aluminum profiles

Different surface treatment methods (such as anodizing, spraying, and electrophoresis) will produce different effects and costs, affecting the price.

3. Dimensional error of aluminum profiles

Some high-demand aluminum profiles require high precision and high precision of the machine. They need some of the latest equipment to assist, and the startup fee will be higher than that of ordinary machines. The general aluminum profiles have relatively low requirements for size error, so the price is naturally at a normal level.

4. Brand of aluminum profiles

The premium of aluminum profiles is related to the brand's popularity. They spend huge advertising costs every year. The bigger the brand, the higher the premium. As a local aluminum profile brand in Foshan, Guangdong, WJW spends money on researching products and updating equipment, making aluminum profiles in a realistic way to meet the needs of customers around the world.

5. Design and mold of aluminum profiles

The manufacture of aluminum profiles requires engineers to design drawings and then make molds. The longer the design of aluminum profiles with complex structures takes, the longer the mold making time is. Engineers need to repeatedly test and modify drawings and molds to ensure the accuracy of aluminum profiles, and finally reach an agreement with customers before production.

Summary

The cost of aluminum profiles is roughly determined by the above aspects. Of course, it is also related to the supply and demand relationship in the market, as well as other factors.

Our suggestions

Choose the appropriate aluminum profile material and surface treatment method according to your needs. If you are not familiar with these, our engineers and sales managers will give you relevant suggestions. If the quantity you need is not large, we would suggest that you try to fill up one cabinet. We will reduce your mold fee, the transportation cost of the goods will be cheaper, and the customs clearance procedures will be simpler.
