Cnc Machining Aluminum – Machining Aluminum Specialist

Demand for aluminum is increasing year by year, and with the introduction of IT by electronic devices in usa, aluminum materials and parts are used in all situations such as semiconductor manufacturing equipment, robots, and the aeronautical automobile industry. In addition, there are many opportunities to use it from kitchen utensils used at home to household appliances, and it can be said that it is one of the most closely related metal materials to human life, along with iron.

Precision cnc machined aluminum parts are becoming the choice of many industries. Aluminum is one of the most popular materials due to its excellent mechanical properties. These include affordability, flexibility, durability and corrosion resistance.

The Cutting And Machining Characteristics Of Aluminum

If the object is limited to aluminum, machining can be viewed from a different perspective than steel. These properties open up new uses for aluminium, where different cnc machining conditions and methods can be applied than steel. There are many types of machining, but here we will focus on cutting. Even with Aluminum, machining such as cutting, grinding, and polishing is actually used. However, cutting is the most widely used.

The latest developments in china cnc machining technology are impressive. For cnc machine, such as ultra-high-speed cnc machines with spindle speeds of tens of thousands of revolutions and machining centers that can perform various types of cuts with automatic tools and changers. As for tools, carbide tools are already common, and natural single crystal diamond tools are also used on an industrial scale. In addition, there are a large number of ultra-precision cut products that take full advantage of these technologies. The current situation is that as these technological developments are closely related to the cutting characteristics of aluminum, cutting technology is becoming more and more mature.

High Machining And Cutting Speed

Most aluminum is softer than steel, so it can be cut at high speed. There are also many cutting manufacturers that mass-produce at speeds of 1,200 m / min or higher. Generally speaking, alminium can be cut at a speed four to five times faster than that of steel. The productivity is high and the cutting cost is low.

It Can Be Continuously Cut For Long Time

For the same reason, aluminum can be cut for a long time. The tools are not worn out too much. In fact, some cutting manufacturers say that they did not change tools for a week at full operation 24 hours a day. Of course, not all aluminum can do this for him like this. Damage to the equipment is a problem for some metal fittings (very high Si metal fittings). However, compared to steel, aluminum is much easier to cut continuously.

The Wide Range Of Suitable Cutting Conditions

Not only the cutting speed but also the cutting and feeding can be selected in a wide range. In general, aluminum is soft and causes less damage to the equipment. Therefore, it is relatively easy to perform from light cutting to heavy cutting.

Less Energy Is Required For Cnc Machining

Since the resistance of aluminum to deformation is smaller than that of steel, less energy is required for cnc machining or cutting.

Good Cnc Machining Or Cutting Accuracy

It is relatively easy to obtain a machining accuracy of about 10 μm even with ordinary cutting. In ultra-fine cutting, a surface roughness of 0.01 μm and a roundness of 3 μm are obtained. With steel, it’s difficult for him to achieve a level of accuracy.

There Are Few Restrictions On Mechanical Rigidity

With steel, there is a great deal of resistance to deformation, so mechanical rigidity may become an issue in achieving precision. However, there are few such problems with Alminium.

High Flexibility With Respect To Machining Parts

As a result of the above characteristics, cutting of alminium can be performed with one piece or hundreds of thousands of pieces / month. Of course, it is the same with steel, but for that purpose, a large number of cutting machines are required.
