Why choose Aluminum for CNC Machining?
CNC aluminum parts are usually less expensive
because they can be machined within a short period compared to other metals like steel. They also do not need extra finishes. Small quantities of zinc, magnesium, copper and other materials are added for strength because the pure aluminum metal is usually soft. When exposed to the atmosphere, a thin protective layer is formed which makes it resistant to corrosion and reduces the chances of it catching rust on the surface. It is resistant to chemicals, easy vowin.cn/en/News/news1251.html' target='_blank'>machining capabilities, and also has a lot of strength compared to its weight.
Aluminum weighs about a third as much as steel.
It also conducts heat and electricity easily which makes it the perfect material for steel sinks. Aluminum reflects heat and light, is malleable and non-magnetic. Some companies specialize in the production of custom CNC aluminum parts. This is mostly because they are economical and lightweight. Aluminum CNC parts are usually less expensive because they can be machined within a short period compared to other materials like brass and steel. It does not also require new finishes.
