Aluminum is considered one of the best metals for CNC machining because it is relatively easy to machine. Aluminum possesses all the properties required for machinings, such as light-weight, good strength, and perfect durability. Since aluminum is a light metal and easy to machine, you can use it in various applications.  Similar to stainless steel CNC Machining, Aluminum CNC machining process cuts the raw material bit to bit to achieve desired shape to meet the drawing’s specification. So, it is also a custom process…

The versatility of stainless steel is undisputed. It is used in various CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining industries. Many stainless steel items are produced using versatile manufacturing methods in CNC machining. These methods benefit from the precision of computer-controlled milling machines, drills, lathes, and other cutting tools that can produce accurate, repeatable parts efficiently and cost-effectively. The presence of chromium in alloys is why stainless steel is better than regular steel. The chemical composition of all stainless steel contains about…

Manufacturers always consider cast aluminum a perfect choice for new product designs. This article will help you understand why manufacturers prefer aluminum alloys for gravity die casting to produce various cast metal components. Low Melting Temperature Stainless steel requires temperatures above 2,500 degrees F to melt, and stainless steel casting requires temperatures above 3,000 degrees F. However, aluminum castings require a lower temperature, 1,221 degrees F, to melt. Aluminum melting and casting temperatures also depend on some other metals mixed into the alloy. However,…
