Shenzhen Alu Rapid Prototype Precision Co., Ltd.

Design Complexity: CNC is ideal for intricate parts but may increase costs for very complex geometries. Use Design for Manufacturability (DFM) feedback to simplify designs.

Volume: Best for single units to low-volume runs. For high volumes, consider die casting with CNC finishing.

Cost: Higher than 3D printing or casting for simple prototypes but cost-effective for precision parts.

Material Selection: Choose alloys like 6061 for general use or 7075 for high-strength needs, based on project requirements.

Finishing Needs: Specify surface treatments (e.g., anodizing) early to ensure compatibility with machining.
