What are Aluminum CNC Machining Parts?

Aluminium CNC machining parts are custom components created from aluminum alloys using CNC (computer numerical control) machines that shape the material with incredible precision. This process achieves tight tolerances and high-quality finishes that meet the specific requirements of demanding industries like automotive, aerospace, medical devices, and electronics.

How do You Choose the Right Aluminum Alloy?

Choosing the right aluminum alloy comes down to what your project actually needs. Different alloys bring varying levels of strength, resistance to corrosion, and formability to the table, so picking the wrong one can compromise performance or cost you more than necessary. Weldability and electrical conductivity also play a role.

What is the CNC Machining Process for Aluminum?

The CNC machining process for aluminum parts involves several critical steps to create precise components:

  1. Design & Programming: Your CAD design is converted into a machine-readable format, ensuring all aspects of the part are captured in the CNC machining program.
  2. Sélection des matériaux: We choose the aluminum alloy best suited to your part’s requirements, whether aluminum 6061, 7075, or another high-performance aluminum alloy.
  3. Usinage: Utilisation Fraisage CNC ou Tournage CNC, the aluminum is cut into the desired shape with tight tolerances (±0.05 mm or better). This is achieved using advanced cutting tools that are optimized for aluminum machining.

What is the Machining Tolerance for Aluminum?

Aluminum CNC machining can achieve high levels of precision, making it ideal for aerospace parts, automotive applications, and other industries that demand tight tolerances. The typical tolerances for CNC aluminum machining are:

  • ±0.10 to 0.05 mm for standard parts
  • ±0,01 mm for high-precision parts
  • ±0,005 mm for ultra-precise applications

Aluminum CNC Machining Parts FAQs

The cost of CNC machining aluminum depends on the complexity of the design, the aluminum alloy used, and the finishing process. Simple parts with 6061 aluminum and standard tolerances are more affordable, while parts requiring 7075 or tight tolerances can increase the cost. Contact us for an instant quote based on your design.

Some materials, such as ceramics, glass, and certain composite materials, are more difficult to machine due to their brittleness or hardness. Titanium and stainless steel are machinable, but require more specialized tools and techniques than aluminum.

Aluminum is relatively easy to machine compared to other metals. Its excellent machinability, low hardness, and good formability make it a popular choice for CNC machining. However, certain alloys like 7075 may require specialized tools due to their higher strength.
