Stainless Steel Parts
CNC milling involves automated cutting machines that utilize a rotating spindle head to remove
unwanted material.
These machines come in various sizes and configurations with different axes.
While CNC milling is primarily employed for cutting harder metals, it can also work with materials
ranging from plastic and aluminum to stainless steel and titanium.
Product Details
In the realm of custom milling projects, almost any metal or plastic that possesses sufficient
hardness for machining can be effectively processed.
Among the materials frequently employed in precision CNC machining at CNC machine shops,
aluminum alloys stand out, owing to their inherent resistance to corrosion.
Aluminum is a prevalent choice for CNC milling machine prototypes due to its robustness and
machinability, facilitating the accurate creation of intricate features in a single prototype.
Within milling machine shops, the 6000 series of aluminum alloys is commonly encountered.
Stainless steel alloys also find widespread use, given their corrosion and wear resistance
properties, along with materials like carbon steel, titanium, and nylon. Nylon, in particular,
is valued for its chemical resistance, strength, durability, and thermoplastic characteristics.
