Processing application and cost difference between aluminum alloy and stainless steel.

Price cost: Stainless steel raw materials and processing costs are high, and the price is usually 30%-100% more expensive than aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy is economical and suitable for large-scale lightweight manufacturing. ‌‌

Processing characteristics: aluminum alloy is soft and easy to cut and shape, and its surface treatment process is rich (such as anodic oxidation). Stainless steel is hard and difficult to process, but it has better weldability and wear resistance. ‌‌

Typical application: aluminum alloy is widely used in lightweight scenes such as aerospace, automobile doors and windows. Stainless steel is more common in tableware, medical instruments, chemical equipment and building structures.
