I just talked to an automotive manufacturer, ok, my brother. He is paying about $1.60 a pound for 6000 series aluminum extrusions. It was higher but is headed down.
I think the price works.
- jws 18y agoThe above manufacturer counts on getting 80% of the source price back for their scrap. So you can imagine if apple rough mills the bricks to remove most of the material as chips and gets 80% of the rate for those pounds of chips, then uses their exotic processes for the final work they will generate more valuable scrap, cutting their end cost.
