CNC Machining Products Turning Aluminum Parts

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining is an automated process that involves using a

machine to remove material from raw stock based on computer-generated instructions.

It is applicable to a wide range of materials, from expanded polyurethane foam to nickel superalloys.

Common applications for CNC machining include manufacturing, crafting ornamental furniture,

and producing turbine blades.

The cost of CNC machining is influenced by factors such as precision requirements, surface finish,

quantity, material selection, and the complexity of the part being produced.

Cost Considerations for CNC Machining Materials

The cost of materials in CNC machining can fluctuate significantly due to the extensive array of

available options. Each material carries its unique price tag, and the inherent physical properties

of each material play a substantial role in determining machining costs.

For those seeking to manufacture metal components, Aluminum 6061 stands out as the most

cost-effective choice.

On the other hand, ABS ranks as the most budget-friendly option among materials.

As for the influence of machining complexity on costs, stainless steel serves as an illustrative example.

Its inherent hardness, surpassing that of aluminum, renders it more challenging to machine,

consequently elevating the overall machining expenses.

Here is a comprehensive overview of the most popular materials.

Enhancing CNC Machined Parts: Post-Processing and Surface Finishes

CNC-machined parts as they emerge from the machine often exhibit visible tool marks, a feature

that may not align with your specific part requirements.

Fortunately, there exists a multitude of post-processing techniques aimed at enhancing the surface

appearance and elevating attributes such as wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and chemical

resistance.

Methods like anodizing, bead blasting, and powder coating present viable options for refining the final

presentation of your custom parts, allowing you to achieve the desired surface quality and performance

characteristics.
