Aluminum

Aluminum is an essential industrial material and commonly CNC machined material, as it exhibits interesting thermal properties and excellent machinability, and is thus the preferred material in the most manufacturing sector in a wide range of industries.

Benefits of Aluminum Material:

–Soft, lightweight, strength-to-weight ratio

–Tractable, malleable, machinability

–Durable, corrosion resistance

–Non-magnetic, non-flammable

–Anodization potential

–Resistant low temperature

Brass

Brass is an alloy made from copper and zinc, which is widely regarded as one of the easiest and most cost-effective materials for precision machining services. It is selected to manufacture complex parts requiring complicated functions. Brass is easy to process, smooth and clean. It can be used to manufacture medical equipment, consumer goods, electronic hardware and contacts, accessories, commercial products, etc.

Benefits of Brass Material:

– Brass parts & components provide tighter seals for fittings
– Can cut down on production costs and is extremely strong under high stress
– Can withstand extreme temperatures
– Easy to cast
– High heat and corrosion resistance, rustproof and more premium properties
– Extremely durable and long service life
– Low weight and easy to take or install

Stainless Steel

Stainless Steel is one of the most popular industrial alloys for many CNC machining projects, due to its excellent physical properties.Stainless Steel is widely used in in the medical, automotive, aerospace and consumer electronics industry. 

Benefits of Stainless Steel:

– High tensile strength
– Excellent wear and corrosion resistance
– Good formability and weldability
– Good performance at high/low temperatures

Titanium

Titanium is a lustrous transition metal with a silver color, low density, and high strength. It’s ideal material for aerospace, medical, military, chemical processing, marine industry and extreme heat applications. 

Benefits of Stainless Steel:

– Good ductility, and high melting point
–Non-magnetic,Low thermal conductivity
– Resistant to corrosion from sea water, chlorine
–Extremely strong but lightweight

Steel

Steel is the backbone material of general engineering and industrial applications and is widely used in CNC machining, especially the low-carbon and medium-carbon steels. Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon usually contains many other elements such as manganese, silicon, phosphorus, and oxygen. The carbon content in steel improves its strength and fracture resistance. 

Benefits of  Steel:

– Steel 4140: 4140 steel is a low alloy steel that contains chromium, molybdenum, and manganese, known for its toughness, high fatigue strength, and torsional strength. 
–Steel 1018: 1018 steel is a low carbon mild steel that has excellent ductility, toughness, and strength characteristics.
