Shenzhen Alu Rapid Prototype Precision Co., Ltd.

Metal machining is a manufacturing process that involves removing material from a metal workpiece to create a desired shape, size, or finish. It uses specialized tools and machines to cut, drill, turn, mill, or grind metal into precise components or prototypes. Common techniques include:

CNC Machining: Computer-controlled machines (e.g., lathes, mills) use programmed instructions to cut metal with high precision, ideal for complex geometries.

Turning: Rotating the workpiece against a cutting tool to create cylindrical shapes, like shafts or bolts.

Milling: Using rotating cutting tools to remove material, creating slots, holes, or intricate surfaces.

Drilling: Creating holes in metal using a rotating drill bit.

Grinding: Using abrasive wheels to achieve a smooth surface finish or tight tolerances.

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM): Using electrical sparks to erode metal for intricate shapes.

Metal machining is widely used in industries like aerospace, automotive, medical, and robotics to produce parts from materials such as aluminum, steel, titanium, or brass. It requires advanced equipment, skilled operators, and often CAD/CAM software for precision. For example, a company like Shenzhen Alu Rapid Prototype Precision Co., Ltd. uses CNC machining to create high-precision metal prototypes for various applications.
