What Is Alloy?

Alloys are substances with metallic properties that are synthesized by two or more metals and metals or nonmetals by a certain method. It is generally obtained by melting into a homogeneous liquid and solidifying. According to the number of constituent elements, it can be divided into binary alloys, ternary alloys, and multi-element alloys. CNC machining of metal parts usually refers to alloy CNC machining, because a single element of metal cannot meet environmental requirements, therefore, usually in the field of precision machinery manufacturing, metal machining, in other words, alloy machining.

Alloys Available for CNC Turning and Milling

Aluminum alloy
  1. Aluminum 6061-T6: This is one of the most popular aluminum alloys on the market and is versatile, easy to machine, and can even have different heat treatments. It is suitable for most cases in which an all-purpose aluminum will suffice.
  2. Aluminum 2024-T4: This alloy is best for high-performance applications due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and good machinability.
  3. Aluminum 7075-T6: This alloy is also best for high-performance applications due to its high strength and hardness.
  4. Aluminum 6082: This alloy is best for high-stress applications due to its high strength and good corrosion resistance.
Steel alloy
  1. Low-carbon steels: These steels are also known as mild steels and are affordable, easy to machine, and have good mechanical and weldability properties. However, they are vulnerable to damage from chemicals and corrosion.
  2. Alloy steels: These steels contain other alloying elements besides carbon, which increases their durability and hardness. They are not chemical or corrosion-resistant.
  3. Tool steels: These steels are some of the toughest metal alloys available for CNC machining. They offer superior hardness, as well as thermal and abrasion resistance.
  4. A514 Alloy Steel: This is a high-strength, low-alloy steel that is used mainly in structural applications. It is weldable, heat-treatable, and is best suited for supporting heavy loads.
  5. 4340 Alloy Steel: This is a medium-carbon, low-alloy steel that is highly useful in environments involving extreme impact, heat, and wear.
Copper alloy
  1. Low-carbon steels: These steels are also known as mild steels and are affordable, easy to machine, and have good mechanical and weldability properties. However, they are vulnerable to damage from chemicals and corrosion.
  2. Alloy steels: These steels contain other alloying elements besides carbon, which increases their durability and hardness. They are not chemical or corrosion-resistant.
  3. Tool steels: These steels are some of the toughest metal alloys available for CNC machining. They offer superior hardness, as well as thermal and abrasion resistance.
  4. A514 Alloy Steel: This is a high-strength, low-alloy steel that is used mainly in structural applications. It is weldable, heat-treatable, and is best suited for supporting heavy loads.
  5. 4340 Alloy Steel: This is a medium-carbon, low-alloy steel that is highly useful in environments involving extreme impact, heat, and wear.
Titanium alloy
  1. Grade 5 titanium (Ti6Al4V): This is the most popular titanium alloy used in CNC machining due to its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, high corrosion resistance, and good machinability. It contains 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium.
  2. Grade 2 titanium (Ti CP): This is a commercially pure titanium alloy that is highly ductile, corrosion-resistant, and has good weldability. It is often used in the aerospace and medical industries.
  3. Grade 9 titanium (Ti3Al2.5V): This is a medium-strength titanium alloy that is highly resistant to corrosion and has good weldability. It is often used in the aerospace and marine industries.
  4. Grade 23 titanium (Ti6Al4V ELI): This is a medical-grade titanium alloy that is highly biocompatible and has excellent corrosion resistance. It is often used in the medical and dental industries.

Alloy Parts Machined By CNC

CNC machined alloy parts not only have high surface finish, but also have high precision, high adaptability and stable performance.
