Aerospace CNC machining materials

What are the aerospace processing methods？

Stainless steel

Stainless steel is a viable alloy material for a variety of aerospace components and has been used in aerospace applications for decades.Stainless steels are resistant to corrosion and high temperature oxidation because their chromium content creates a rich oxide film. Common aerospace applications for stainless steel include fuel tanks, exhaust components, aircraft panels, high temperature engine components and components requiring welding.

Aluminum

Aluminum has long been a staple material in the aerospace industry. The metal is almost one-third the weight of stainless steel, helping with fuel efficiency and weight margins, and is often cheaper and easier to handle. But it is also a more efficient heat conductor, so it is not suitable for parts that require higher heat resistance and are more difficult to solder. As technology develops, other alloys (and composites) may replace aluminum as the primary aerospace material, but it still has applications in industry today

Titanium

The aerospace industry is now leading the way in the use of alloys because of titanium's incredible strength-to-weight ratio. The metal is an attractive option for aerospace engineering because it is lighter than aluminum but has impressive heat and corrosion resistance. Its excellent resistance occurs when treated with carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPS). Manufacturers see bowls as ideal solutions for complex aerospace processes, from frames to engines.

High temperature superalloy

These superalloys, metal alloys, are characterized by heat resistance,corrosion resistance,lightweight construction and high strength. Superalloys are usually the best choice for the hottest parts of jet engines, the turbine and compressor stages. Some of the superalloys we use are nickel superalloys, diamond superalloys and iron superalloys.

3D processing

Through 3D CNC machining, almost any model or technical drawing can be formed to strict specifications. 3D machining is particularly suitable for large aerospace components. 3D technology and technology can handle complex operations easily, accurately and cheaply.

5 axis machining

Five-axis CNC machining uses a high-precision CNC-operated machine tool that can move a tool or part in five axes simultaneously. This extremely precise method is ideal for aerospace engineering, which involves creating particularly complex parts from exotic materials.

Three coordinate detection

Capability Maturity Model (CMM) testing services ensure that your Ministry of Aviation CAD models and 2D drawings are fully achievable in terms of quality, reliability and safety. Three-dimensional inspection is an important step in any aerospace engineering project where safety is very important, by converting the component geometry into CMM programmable data, each complete component will be inspected with a detailed report.

CNC turning

CNC turning enables the manufacture of multiple parts that interact perfectly. Computer-aided drafting (CAD) software controls the CNC lathe, which can cut excess material and rotate material at high speeds. The accuracy of this machine is less than 10 microns, according to the design drawings, ensuring that the CNC lathes work to exact specifications, resulting in aerospace components of the highest quality and reliability
