Description
Structures for various machinery and equipment, heat dissipation components, housings, and frames.
Aluminum is suitable for anodizing to achieve enhanced corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and appearance.
Aluminum has low rigidity, making thin-walled parts prone to deformation; its surface has low hardness and is susceptible to scratching.

Aluminum 6061 is the most widely used aluminum alloy in CNC machining. It is lightweight with moderate strength, offers stable machinability, and possesses excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for fabricating most load-bearing and functional components.
Aluminum 7075 is the strongest aluminum alloy, with strength approaching that of some high-strength steels while retaining its lightweight characteristics. It is highly suitable for components requiring both weight reduction and high strength.
Aluminum 6063 has strong extrusion capabilities while offering excellent corrosion resistance and weldability. It is the mainstream choice for complex extruded components and visible parts.
Aluminum 6082 has high strength and excellent vibration-resistant properties, making it the preferred material for heavy-duty structural profiles. It is widely used in construction engineering, rail transit, and shipbuilding.
Aluminum 2024 exhibits excellent strength and fatigue resistance, with adequate corrosion resistance under normal conditions. It is commonly used in aerospace applications for load-bearing structural components.
Aluminum 5052 is one of the most ductile and formable materials among aluminum alloys, particularly suited for processes such as bending and stamping. It also offers excellent corrosion resistance and performs more stably in high-humidity environments.
Aluminum MIC6 is a cast aluminum plate featuring extremely low internal stress and exceptional flatness, and is suitable for machining precision components that require high dimensional stability and strict deformation control.

From alloy selection to machining capability — supporting reliable CNC aluminum parts production.
Aluminum is one of the most commonly used and cost-effective materials in CNC machining, primarily due to its excellent machinability and high strength-to-weight ratio. On one hand, aluminum is relatively soft, resulting in low cutting resistance and suitability for high-speed machining. It also causes minimal tool wear, leading to high overall machining efficiency and low costs. On the other hand, aluminum weighs only about one-third as much as steel while maintaining good structural strength. This allows it to meet both lightweight and load-bearing requirements.
We possess professional CNC machining capabilities for aluminum alloys, supporting processing on multiple machine types from 3-axis to 4-axis and 5-axis. This enables us to efficiently machine a wide range of commonly used aluminum alloy materials. Leveraging aluminum's excellent machinability and our specialized aluminum processing expertise, we have successfully mass-produced over one million aluminum components. Our services support over 20 surface treatment processes, delivering not only functional performance but also meeting demands for aesthetic appearance and texture.
Xmake specializes in CNC machining services. Over the years, we have established a robust and extensive partner network, connecting hundreds of material suppliers with professional aluminum machining workshops. This enables us to provide customers with cost-effective aluminum alloy materials and professional, reliable aluminum machining services. Currently, we consistently process six commonly used aluminum alloy grades: 6061, 7075, 5052, 2A12, ADC12, and ADC12. Should you require machining for other aluminum alloy grades, please contact us for a professional customized machining solution.
