Precision CNC Machining Advantages
CNC machining technology enables efficient material utilization, reducing waste and optimizing costs through precision cutting paths. This process minimizes scrap generation, particularly valuable in industries with high material costs like aerospace and medical manufacturing. The accuracy of CNC machining allows for maximum material yield and potential reuse of leftover materials from previous production runs.
Aluminum Alloy Characteristics
- AL7050: High-strength alloy with superior stress corrosion cracking resistance, ideal for aerospace applications. Requires routine cleaning and inspection, with anodizing recommended for enhanced wear resistance.
- AL7075: Exceptionally strong and tough alloy used in aircraft and military applications. Features excellent fatigue resistance and corrosion resistance. Benefits from regular maintenance and protective coatings in harsh environments.
Surface Treatment Processes
Sandblasting creates controlled surface roughness through high-speed abrasive projection, improving workpiece mechanical properties, fatigue resistance, and coating adhesion. This process is essential for surface preparation before finishing treatments.
Cadmium plating (though increasingly replaced by zinc alternatives due to environmental concerns) provides oxidation resistance for electrical contacts and is used in aerospace, marine, and military applications. Note that cadmium plating has temperature limitations (max 232°C) to prevent embrittlement.
