The difference between aluminum profile manufacturers and aluminum profile distributors?

November 29,2022.
Aluminum profile manufacturers and aluminum profile dealers both sell aluminum profiles, and a search on the Internet is full of aluminum profile manufacturers. Many people can't help wondering, are there so many aluminum profile manufacturers in China? The answer is of course not. In fact, most of them are aluminum profile dealers, they provide some processing and assembly services, and they can also be called aluminum profile deep processing manufacturers. So what is the difference between aluminum profile manufacturers and aluminum profile distributors?
1. Aluminum profile manufacturers have extrusion equipment, because aluminum profiles are all produced by extrusion, and extrusion equipment is necessary for the production of aluminum profiles. If you don't even have an extrusion machine, how can you talk about producing aluminum profiles? Many aluminum profile manufacturers are also equipped with surface treatment workshops, because most aluminum profiles need surface treatment after they are produced. Like industrial aluminum profiles, anodizing is required. The wastewater generated by surface treatment needs to be discharged up to the standard. Manufacturers will build professional sewage treatment centers and special personnel will be on duty 24 hours a day.
2. Manufacturers of aluminum profiles are all in volume and do not have inventory. Because most of the manufacturer's customers are dealers, and some are accessories for their own products, such as solar aluminum frames. These dosages are relatively large, and we will produce as many orders as customers place, with a difference of at most plus or minus a few pieces. And dealers generally stock up, and dealers target retailers and direct users, so buyers are scattered, and there are also products that need to be sawed and cut into different sizes, mechanically processed, etc., so dealers will stock up. There are many customers who find us on the Internet and want several materials, but we generally don't have them, and even if we have them, the price will not be low. The price is even higher than the dealer. So you can buy scattered aluminum profiles and find a dealer.
3. Aluminum profile manufacturers can customize aluminum profiles. Of course, dealers also say that they can customize aluminum profiles. In fact, they still find manufacturers to customize. Large-scale manufacturers have the ability to open molds independently, and ordinary manufacturers will entrust mold chess factories to open molds. After the mold is opened, it will be sent to the aluminum material factory, and the aluminum material factory will keep it uniformly.
4. The registered capital of aluminum profile manufacturers is relatively high, because various equipment needs to be invested, the plant covers a large area, and the number of employees is relatively large (involving extrusion, aging, sandblasting, oxidation, sawing, packaging, storage , equipment maintenance, sewage treatment, sales, customer service, procurement, logistics support, etc.), and aluminum profile manufacturers with deep processing like ours have more personnel.
