100+ Materials Can Be Freely Selected
Aluminum
Versatile alloy with balanced strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability. Available grades: 6061, 7075, 5052, 2024-T8510.
CNC Tip:
Standard corner radii reduce tool wear. Avoid welding 7075 if possible.
Brass
Free-machining brass with high tensile strength, natural corrosion resistance, and good ductility. Available grades: C360, C260.
CNC Tip:
C360 is ideal for high-volume turning with good chip breaking; C260 requires effective chip breakers and high-pressure coolant.
Stainless Steel
Excellent corrosion resistance, formability and strength. Available grades: 304/L, 316/L, 17-4 PH.
CNC Tip:
Use sharp tools and constant feed rates to prevent work hardening. For 316/L, reduce cutting speed to manage heat buildup. Machine 17-4 PH in annealed state before heat treatment.
Steel
Good weldability, formability and strength. Available grades: Mild Steel 1018, Alloy Steel 4140.
CNC Tip:
Mild steel requires plating/coating immediately after machining to prevent rust. For alloy steel, use rigid tool setup to handle cutting forces.
Copper
Exceptional thermal and electrical conductivity. Available grades: C110, C101.
CNC Tip:
Use sharp, polished tools with high rake angles to prevent burrs. High-purity grades are more costly, use only when required.
Titanium
Ti-6Al-4V offers an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio and high corrosion resistance.
CNC Tip:
Requires low cutting speeds and high coolant flow to prevent heat buildup and fire risk.
Grey Iron
Features excellent damping capacity and machinability, though brittle under tension.
CNC Tip:
Machining produces graphite dust; efficient dust collection is essential.
Tool Steel
High wear resistance, toughness and edge retention. Available grades: A2, D2.
CNC Tip:
Leave grinding stock for tight tolerances after heat treatment. D2 is harder to grind than A2, use appropriate wheels to avoid cracking.
Bronze
Bearing bronze offering excellent anti-friction properties and load-carrying capacity.
CNC Tip:
Ideal for parts involving friction; do not over-polish bearing surfaces.
Magnesium
Extremely lightweight metal (lighter than aluminum) with good strength-to-weight ratio.
CNC Tip:
Chips are highly flammable; maintain strict fire safety and proper coolant use.

Materials
Technical Description & Cost
As machined
Metals & Plastics
Raw finish directly from CNC. The most economical choice with tightest tolerances. Visible tool marks present.
Smooth machining
Metals & Plastics
Machined at lower feed rates. Less visible tool marks, better sealing properties and reduced friction.
Polishing
All Materials
Smoothing to remove tool marks. Essential for optical parts, molds, or reducing friction.
Sand blasting
Metals, Plastics
Bombarded with glass beads for a uniform matte finish. Hides tool marks. Note: Affects dimensions.
Tumbled
Metals, Plastics
Batch process with vibrating media. Removes sharp edges (deburring) and smooths geometry.
Anodizing Type II (Matte)
Aluminum
Corrosion-resistant oxide layer. Matte finish achieved by bead blasting prior to anodizing. Non-conductive.
Anodizing Type II (Glossy)
Aluminum
Standard Type II anodizing applied to a polished/smooth surface. Vibrant, shiny appearance.
Anodizing Type III (Hardcoat)
Aluminum
Thick, dense oxide layer (25-50μm). Extreme wear resistance (60-70 HRC). Limited color options (Dark).
Powder Coated
All Metals
Dry powder fused by heat. Strong, thick plastic skin (~80μm). Superior durability to wet paint.
Black Oxide
Steel, Stainless
Conversion coating. Anti-glare, mild corrosion resistance (needs oil). Negligible thickness change.
Chromate (Alodine)
Aluminum
Corrosion protection for aluminum that remains electrically conductive. Great paint primer. Cost-effective.
Plating
All Metals
Depositing metal (Nickel, Zinc, Chrome) for solderability, hardness, or corrosion resistance.
DLC Coating
Steel, Titanium
Diamond-Like Carbon. Extremely hard, low-friction. Used in engines, tools, and luxury watches.
Specialist industries
Aerospace & aviation

Precision Stainless Steel Welding Design Guide
• Adapt to Stainless Steel Welding Characteristics
Avoid design features that trap heat and cause warping; they lead to oxidation discoloration, reduced corrosion resistance, and rework. Use gradual transitions instead of sharp corners.
• Keep Wall Thickness Consistent
Maintain consistent wall thickness in welded assemblies; uneven sections lead to uneven heat distribution, distortion, and poor dimensional accuracy during high-temperature welding.
• Match Joint Design to Welding Processes
Design weld joints compatible with standard TIG/MIG processes; mismatched geometries require custom fixturing or multi-pass welding, increasing production cost and cycle time.
• Specify Practical Tolerances for Welded Parts
Only specify tight tolerances on critical functional surfaces; over-tight tolerances increase inspection time and manufacturing costs significantly. Our ISO-certified process ensures reliable quality.
