Aluminum is a lightweight, durable, and malleable metal. It can be used to make almost anything from furniture to aircraft parts. In this article I will be talking about aluminum parts, CNC machining, and instructions on how to machine aluminum parts for your own use
Aluminum is an excellent choice for manufacturing precision parts because it has a relatively low coefficient of expansion. This means that the aluminum expands less than other materials when heated or cooled. This makes it easier to work with when making precision parts because you can keep the temperature consistent throughout your build process
One of the biggest challenges in machining any material is keeping the tooling cool while you are machining it. The best way to do this is by using water cooling! This allows you to use larger tools since there's less heat buildup on the tooling itself (and nothing sticks to it)
In this article we'll take a look at how to make aluminum parts using CNC machining technology
