Many people have heard of CNC lathes and CNC technology, but they don’t understand aluminum alloy CNC processing, so What is CNC processing?
CNC machining of aluminum alloy is a method to control the movement of machine tool and machining process by using digital information. The machine tool that implements processing control with numerical control technology, or the machine tool that is equipped with numerical control system is called numerical control (CNC) machine tool.
With the continuous progress of science and technology, the development of modern CNC processing technology has tended to high speed, high precision, high reliability, multi-function, complex, intelligent. This processing technology has been widely used in various fields. So what are the advantages and disadvantages of aluminum alloy CNC processing?

Disadvantages: 
The cost of machine tool equipment is expensive, and maintenance personnel are required to have a higher level.

Advantages:
  • It can process complex surface and even some unobservable angles.
 Stable quality, high processing accuracy, high repetition accuracy.
 The efficiency is higher under the condition of multi-variety and small batch production, which can reduce the time of production preparation, machine adjustment and process inspection, and reduce the cutting time due to the use of the optimal cutting amount.
 Can greatly reduce the number of tooling, processing complex shapes of parts do not need complex tooling. If you want to change the shape and size of the parts, you only need to modify the parts processing program, which is suitable for new product development and modification.

On the whole, the emergence of aluminum alloy CNC processing has brought great convenience to our life, but also improved the production efficiency of various industries.
