The amazing advances in both CNC technology and material development allow almost any material needed for today’s products to be CNC machined in an efficient manner. Some of the most common materials are Carbon and Stainless Steel, Aluminum, and Plastic. DFAR certified suppliers are available for defense or military contracts.
Aluminum is one of the most common materials used in the manufacturing sector because of the many benefits it offers in a large variety of applications.
Benefits:
-Durability: corrosion resistant, non-flammable
-Flexibility: can be shaped and machined easily
-Lightweight
-High strength-to-weight ratio
-Non-magnetic
-Large choice of finishes
-Recyclability
Alloys:
2011 2024 6061 7075
The use of Carbon Steel dates back to ancient times. It is harder and stronger than Stainless Steel. There are several types of carbon steel, such as low, medium, high and ultra-high carbon steel. These refer to the carbon content of the steels. The type of carbon steel that is best varies depending on the use.
Benefits:
-Durable: strong and shock resistant
-Safe: to handle and machine
-Economical
-Recyclability
Alloys:
12L14 1010 1018 1045 1144 1215
Aircraft Alloys offer a good combination of strength and shock resistance.
Benefits:
-Heat-treated for high strength
-Shock-resistant on parts under heavy stress
-Vacuum arc-remelted for purity
Alloys:
4130 4140 4340
Stainless steel is heavily utilized in the medical and aerospace sectors because of a number of advantages in comparison to other materials.
Benefits:
-Higher oxidation rate
-Higher heat resistance
-Resistant to corrosion
-Low maintenance- surface finishes unnecessary
Alloys:
303 304 316 410 420 416 430 440 455 13-8 15-5 17-4 Nitronic 60
Copper is known for its outstanding conductivity, both electrical and thermal. For these reasons they are used heavily in the electronic and communication sectors.
Benefits:
-Excellent electrical and thermal conductivity
-Durable and strong
-Ductile: easy to machine
-Resistant to corrosion
Alloys:
101 110 145 187
Brass and Bronze are two copper-based alloys that offer a variety of characteristics suitable for a wide range of applications.
Benefits:
-Durable and strong
-Ductile: easy to machine
-Resistant to corrosion
Alloys:
360 464 510 544 630 642
Benefits:
-Can have higher tensile strength vs. many types of metal
-Reduced part weight
-Reduced manufacturing costs
-Superior design flexibility
-Reduced waste
-Faster manufacturing times
-Resistant to corrosion
Types:
ABS Delrin/Acetal HDPE Kel-F Nylon Peek Polycarbonate PTFE PVC Torlon UNMW Ultem Vespel
