![\"\"](\"https://www.hdprototypes.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/aluminum-prototyping-by-CNC-milling.jpg\")
- low in density but high in strength
- close to or superior to high quality steel
- good plasticity
- excellent process ability
- excellent welding characteristics and electroplating
- good corrosion resistance
- high toughness and deformation after manufacturing
- defects and easily polished
- easy to color film
- excellent anodizing finished and other excellent features(painting, powder coating, plating etc)
So aluminum alloy rapid prototypes are widely used, usually they are processed by CNC machining.
