When we manufacture a variety of CNC turned aluminum machine parts, most of the aluminum used is 6061-T6. It is a strong and durable material that is mainly composed of magnesium and silicon, which makes it strong and hard. This material is specially treated to not only have moderate strength, but also resist corrosion, weld easily, and form a beautiful oxide layer on the surface. It is often used to manufacture large equipment such as trucks, building brackets, ships and trams that require a certain strength and strong corrosion resistance.
In general, these CNC machined 6061-T6 aluminum alloy parts are very popular in many industrial product manufacturing due to their strength, durability and good appearance. They are not only easy to use, but also look classy.
During machining, we use the technique of diamond knurling to add some small textures to the surface of the part. This surface treatment method uses a diamond tool to roll on the part to form fine concave and convex textures. This technique can increase the friction of the parts, make the hand more stable, and also make the parts look more distinctive. Diamond knurling is often used to make tool handles, knobs and other parts that need to be operated manually, making them both practical and beautiful.
Anodizing is a method of adding a protective layer to the surface of aluminum parts. In this process, the aluminum parts are placed in an electrolyte and a dense aluminum oxide film is formed on the surface through the action of an electric current. This film can prevent the aluminum parts from corrosion and also make the color of the parts more uniform. Anodizing is widely used in the surface treatment of various aluminum products, such as mobile phone cases, kitchen utensils and building materials.
Sandblasting is a technique that uses fine particles (such as sand or plastic particles) sprayed at high speed to polish the surface of an object. This process can make the surface rougher and increase adhesion in preparation for subsequent painting or bonding. Sandblasting technology is often used for the pretreatment of metal products, glass products and plastic products, such as automotive parts, building decoration materials and artworks.
Transparent anodizing is a special treatment based on anodizing. The oxide film it forms is transparent, which can protect aluminum parts while maintaining their original metallic luster. This treatment is particularly suitable for products that need to maintain the appearance of metal texture, such as aluminum alloy housings of high-end electronic equipment. It not only provides protection but also enhances the beauty of the product.
We provide personalized customization services and can make different types and sizes of threads according to your needs. Whether it is standard M series threads or special G threads or NPT threads, we can do it. In addition to aluminum, we are also good at processing other materials, such as stainless steel, POM (an engineering plastic), PEEK (a high-performance thermoplastic) and titanium. The customization process is simple: you only need to provide drawings or samples, and we can accept 2D or 3D files for quotation. We will make parts that meet your requirements according to your specific needs.
For example, in the medical device industry, these parts are used to manufacture precision medical devices; in the automotive industry, they are an important part of automotive parts; in the field of industrial equipment, these aluminum parts help various mechanical equipment to operate normally. Our products cover these industries and provide reliable solutions.
