Description
We are an automotive parts manufacturer and also provide CNC precision parts or injection molds for medical products and consumer electronics.
Let us introduce below: The difference between aluminum alloy 6061 and 6082
Composition and performance differences:
6061 aluminum alloy mainly contains magnesium and silicon. It is a heat-treatable strengthenable alloy. It has good formability, weldability and machinability, and has medium strength. It is often used in applications that require high resistance to corrosion and oxidation, such as aerospace parts, automation equipment parts, and drone parts.
6082 aluminum alloy belongs to the Al-Mg-Si series. It is also an alloy that can be strengthened by heat treatment. It has better formability, weldability and machinability, and has higher strength than 6061. It is particularly suitable for applications requiring high strength and good corrosion resistance, such as robotic parts, automotive parts and motorcycle parts.


Application areas:
6061 is widely used in various industrial structural parts that require certain strength and high corrosion resistance, such as semiconductor equipment parts, camera parts, and ship accessories.
Due to its higher strength and excellent corrosion resistance, 6082 is particularly suitable for applications that require weight reduction, such as high-speed ship parts and ship plates for marine vessels, medical equipment parts and medical industry parts.
In summary, although both are heat treatment-strengthenable aluminum alloys with similar formability and weldability, 6082 performs better in terms of strength and corrosion resistance, making it more suitable for applications requiring higher performance. Be applicable

We have 17 years of experience in providing precision parts for some of the world's leading companies. We can produce products with precise dimensions and strict appearance. We also provide precision injection molds; CNC machining and sheet metal parts services. 

CNC machining parts include: CNC milling machine machining parts and CNC lathe machining parts, which often use: electrochemical polishing (also known as electrolytic polishing)
Electrolytic polishing is abbreviated as ECP in English. This machining method was invented by P.A. Jacques of France in 1931. Soon after, it was widely used in the surface treatment of CNC machining parts such as automobile parts; motorcycle parts; robot parts; automation equipment parts; drone parts; medical CNC machining parts, etc.
Principle:
The principle of electrolytic polishing is mainly:
The metal ions detached from the metal parts form a layer of phosphate film with the phosphoric acid in the polishing liquid adsorbed on the surface of the metal parts. This mucous film is thinner at the protrusions and thicker at the concave parts. Because the current density at the protrusions is high, it dissolves quickly. As the mucous film flows, the concave and convex changes continuously, and the rough surface is gradually leveled.
The metal part is connected to the positive pole of the DC power supply as an anode. Conductive materials corroded by electrolytes are used as cathodes
An electrolytic processing method that uses the principle that the microscopic convex points on the metal surface first undergo anodic dissolution in a specific electrolyte and at an appropriate current density to perform polishing.
