Aluminum machining

This page presents basic guidelines for Aluminum machining to help improve part manufacturability, enhance appearance, and reduce overall production time.

Precision machining of aluminum alloy

Mainly used in aerospace, electronic communications, military, medical and other industries.

Aluminum machining is a process that involves the use of aluminum alloys in the manufacture of products, as there are many grades of aluminum. Aluminum alloys are highly machinable and relatively inexpensive, and different types of aluminum alloys are suitable for countless machining applications. This includes rigid building components, aerospace parts manufacturing, and more.

It does this by introducing aluminum alloys, highlighting their compositions, common applications, and the industries in which they are often used.

We are equipped with advanced 3-axis, 4-axis and 5-axis CNC machining centers, including Haas, Jingdiao and other high-speed CNC milling machines. We can handle a wide variety of magnesium and aluminum milling projects that require high precision and complex shape machining parts, with extremely tight tolerances and excellent surface finishes.

Most processing type Minimum Wall Thickness Minimum end mill size Minimum drill size Maximum part size Undercut Radius:Depth
Three-axis machining 1mm 1mm x 2mm x 2mm 0.5mm 1100mm x 800mm x 650mm [x,y,z] Square outline, full radius, dovetail outline Machining tolerance is +/- 0.01mm. It is recommended that all areas of the part should be thicker than 0.51mm
Four-axis machining 1mm 1mm x 2mm x 2mm 0.5mm 550mm x 350mm x 200mm [x,y,z] Square outline, full radius, dovetail outline Machining tolerance is +/- 0.01mm. It is recommended that all areas of the part should be thicker than 0.51mm
Five-axis machining 1mm 1mm x 2mm x 2mm 0.5mm 550mm x 350mm x 200mm [x,y,z] Square outline, full radius, dovetail outline Machining tolerance is +/- 0.01mm. It is recommended that all areas of the part should be thicker than 0.51mm

Processing Type smooth Semi-gloss matte Textured
Precision Die Casting A grade finish is made with a diamond polishing process that produces a shiny finish on injection molded parts. Grade B finishes use coarse sandpaper to produce rougher parts than Grade A parts. Custom-molded plastic parts with a B-grade finish have a matte surface texture. Grade C finishes use coarse grit to create a rough, uneven surface. C-finished injection molded parts have a matte surface texture. Grade D finishes use grit and dried glass beads or oxides to create a very rough textured finish. Depending on the type of material used, the product can have a satin or matte finish.
