CNC machining is a process involving different types of machines, all utilizing computer-controlled
tools to precisely remove material from a workpiece. The advantage of this computerized control
is that CNC machining offers significantly increased speed, precision, and accuracy compared to
traditional machining methods.
Product Details
CNC Machining with Aluminum
Aluminum is an excellent material for CNC machining due to its high
machinability, ductility,
and favorable strength-to-weight ratio. It offers outstanding thermal and electrical conductivity,
low density, and inherent resistance to corrosion.
Aluminum can also be anodized for additional surface protection and aesthetic finishes.
| Common Aluminum Materials | |
| No. | Properties |
| Aluminum 6061-T6 | Aluminum 6061 (CNC) is the most popular aluminum alloy. It has good strength-to-weight ratio, excellent machinability and natural corrosion resistance. |
| Aluminum 7075-T6 | Aluminum 7075-T6 (CNC) is an aerospace-grade material with excellent strength-to-weight ratio and strength and hardness comparable to steels. |
| Aluminum 6060 | Alloy 6060 offers good strength, relatively good corrosion resistance and is suitable for decorative anodizing. |
| Aluminum 6082 | Aluminum 6082 (CNC) has very similar composition and properties to 6061, with slightly higher tensile strength. Compliant with British Standards. |
| Aluminum 5083 | Aluminum 5083 (CNC) is a strain hardening aluminum alloy with excellent corrosion resistance. Suitable for marine applications. Can be welded. |
| Aluminum 6063 | Aluminum 6063 has good mechanical properties and can be heat treated. Suitable for aerospace applications. Can be welded. |
| Aluminum 5052 | Aluminum 5052 is a strain hardening aluminum alloy with excellent corrosion resistance. Suitable for marine applications. Can be welded. |
| Aluminum 2024 | Aluminum 2024 is a high-strength alloy with excellent fatigue resistance. Suitable for aerospace applications. |
| Aluminum 7050 | Aluminum 7050 has excellent mechanical properties with good ductility, high strength, toughness and good resistance to fatigue. Suitable for aerospace applications. |

Company Profile
FAQ's
1. Can make design drawings for me?
While we don't provide a standalone product design service, we do conduct Design for
Manufacturing reviews for all approved orders. This entails working closely with our clients to
optimize their 2D and 3D drawings, addressing design conflicts, and minimizing production costs.
Check out our guidelines on preparing CAD drawings for manufacturing.
2. Can I use my own material for production?
Absolutely, you can use your own material for production, as long as it aligns with the capabilities
of our machines.
3. How do I know my design will be kept confidential?
Rest assured, we are committed to maintaining the confidentiality of your design. We are willing to
sign and uphold any non-disclosure or confidentiality agreement. Additionally, our factory strictly
prohibits the taking of photographs of a customer's product without explicit permission.
Ultimately, our reputation is built on years of working with numerous unique designs, ensuring that
no proprietary information is ever disclosed to third parties.
4. What is your typical lead time? Can my parts be produced on a rush basis?
Our standard lead time for screw machine products, encompassing quoting, manufacturing, and
shipping, is typically around one week. With an on-time delivery rate exceeding 99%, we prioritize
efficiency. Depending on factors like tooling, gauges, and material availability, we may have the
capability to produce your parts on an expedited basis. Feel free to inquire!
