Aluminum CNC milling use a rotating cutting tool to remove material from a stationary aluminum workpiece. This process is commonly used to create parts with complex shapes and detailed features, such as brackets, housings, and plates.
Aluminum CNC turning involves rotating the aluminum material with a cutting tool to remove material from it. this process is commonly used to create parts that are cylindrical or round in shape such as pins, rings, and Shafts.
Aluminum 5-axis machining uses a cutting tool that moves along five axes to shape complex parts with precision. It's ideal for creating intricate components like aerospace parts and medical devices in a single setup.
Aluminum is one of the most popular metal materials for machining because it is relatively easy to machine, high thermal and corrosion resistance, making it great for CNC machining, Common aluminum alloys like 6061-T6, 7075-T6, and 2024-T3 are widely used in CNC machining due to their good balance of strength, machinability, and cost.
When considering metal materials for CNC machining, aluminum stands out for its remarkable properties that enhance the CNC machining processes. Here are the major benefits of Aluminum
This aluminum alloy is one of the most versatile heat-treatable options available, maintaining many of aluminum’s excellent qualities. It offers a wide range of mechanical properties and strong corrosion resistance. You can fabricate it using most standard techniques, and it demonstrates good workability when annealed.
Often referred to as an architectural alloy, this aluminum grade offers good mechanical properties, exceptional finishing capabilities, and strong corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in both interior and exterior architectural applications, as well as trim work. Aluminum 6063 is particularly popular for extrusion applications.
Aluminum 7075 is among the strongest aluminum alloys available, boasting an impressive strength-to-weight ratio. It’s perfect for applications involving high stress and is commonly used in the aviation industry for components that require complex structures and precise engineering.
Aluminum 2024 is ideal for applications that demand a high strength-to-weight ratio and good fatigue resistance. However, it is not weldable and has average machinability. Additionally, it has limited corrosion resistance and is not well-suited for anodization. anodization.
This is the strongest alloy among non-heat-treatable grades, offering higher fatigue strength than most other aluminum alloys. It provides good resistance to marine environments and saltwater corrosion, along with excellent workability.
Aluminum 6082 is a medium-strength alloy renowned for its excellent corrosion resistance and is the strongest member of the 6000 series. Known as a structural alloy, it is the most commonly used alloy for machining in plate form.
