Want quick metal and plastic component supply? CNC machining is the best process to provide low-volume production and rapid prototyping of end-use parts. Advanced aluminium CNC cutting service has the ability to offer volume pricing, tighter tolerances and anodizing, ensuring on-time production of components every single time. And, we, Createproto, are the leading supplier of manufacturing CNC machined aluminium parts tailored to your needs across all industries, from automotive to aerospace to electronic and healthcare spheres.
Advantages of CNC Aluminum Machining:
- 1. CNC machining runs on software programs for interactive optimization that produces parts with little or almost no waste.
- 2. CNC machining eliminates the possibility of defects during the manufacturing process and delivers greater accuracy with no flaws.
- 3. With CNC aluminium milling services, you can expect fast and efficient production to meet increased demands.
- 4. The CNC machining process allows high-precision and seamless fittings of components, leading to faster assembly without any interruption.
- 5. Aluminium CNC services enhance personnel safety with its automatic function by eliminating the need for any operator.
- 6. CNC allows to reduce energy consumption with its injection sustainability.
- 7. CNC’s precise parts turning cuts down production costs.
CNC Milling
This one is a subtractive manufacturing procedure of aluminium CNC machining parts using 3-axis and 5-axis milling processes to cut metal blocks and solid plastic components. Such CNC milling processes allow more than 30 engineering-grade manufacturing parts at higher quantities and competitive pricing. It’s commonly used for:
1. Low-volume productions
2. Functional prototypes
3. Fixtures and jigs
CNC Turning:
The CNC turning process combines with live tooling, enhancing mill and lathe capabilities to machined components, including the cylindrical features. This process is best for custom prototype production for end-use parts. In fact, our experts combine live toppling with CNC lathes to include the features, like flats, radial holes, slots, gloves and more.
Material Finish
Generally, raw aluminium comes with a grey or dull silver finish, depending on its surface roughness. We have seen many aluminium CNC machining parts to be anodized, such as the MacBook Pro. It allows a wide variety of colour options while adding a permanent shine throughout the part. At Createproto, our experts also hand-polish, sand or media-blast aluminium parts to bring out a multitude of surface finishes.
Design Recommendations
Minimum Wall Thickness: 0.5 mm
Max Part Size: 1200 x 500 x 152 mm [x,y,z] (mill) 152 x 394 mm [d,h] (lathe)
Min Drill Size: 0.5 mm (0.02 in)
Undercuts: Full radius, dovetail profiles square profile
Radii: Depth will not exceed 12x drill bit diameter.
For end mills, the depth should be 10x tool diameter.
About the material
At Createprtoto, we provide different aluminium alloys during CNC aluminium service. Aluminium is the most commonly preferred metal across the world because of its low costs, outstanding strength-to-weight ratio and recyclability.
We use 6061 and 6061-T6 aluminium alloy for most common shapes during aluminium milling services for structural applications, like stairs, ramps, and flooring for its exceptional resistance to weldability, corrosion, strength and machinability.
7075 Aluminium is hard and high strength compared to 6061 Aluminum. The use of this aluminium is applicable for the parts with high-stress applications.
Instead of 7075, we use 7050 Aluminum for high-stress corrosion-resistant parts (ie. bulkheads and fuselage frames).
2024 Aluminium is not as strong as 7075 Aluminium. It is commonly used for high strength-to-weight ratio requirements.
5052 Aluminium is exceptionally corrosion resistant against salt spray and saltwater and easy to form, heat treatable, and non-magnetic.
6063 Aluminum is more corrosion resistant and formable than 6061 Aluminum but not ideal for high strength applications.
