Aluminum CNC Machining

Custom Aluminum CNC Machined Parts Manufacturer

Aluminum is the most widely machined material at SCreate. Its combination of high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent machinability and broad surface treatment options makes it ideal for automotive, automation, consumer electronics and industrial equipment applications. We machine aluminum alloys 6061-T6, 7075-T6, 2024-T4, 5052 and casting alloys, producing housings, brackets, heat sinks, motor mounts, impellers and structural frames to tight tolerances.

Capabilities

What We Deliver

6061-T6 Aluminum

The workhorse alloy — excellent machinability, good corrosion resistance and weldability. Ideal for structural brackets, housings and machine bases.

7075-T6 Aluminum

Highest strength aluminum alloy — used for high-stress applications including automotive components, jigs and fixtures.

2024-T4 Aluminum

Excellent fatigue resistance. Used for impellers, rotating components and parts where dynamic loading is critical.

Anodizing & Hard Anodizing

Clear, black and coloured anodizing (Type II) and hard anodizing (Type III, up to 50μm) for wear resistance or cosmetic requirements.

Complex Multi-Axis Geometries

Motor mounts, gearboxes, pump housings and multi-cavity brackets machined complete in 3- to 5-axis setups.

Lightweight Design Support

FEA topology optimisation and DFM review to help you achieve maximum weight reduction without sacrificing structural integrity.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between 6061 and 7075 aluminum for CNC machining?

6061-T6 offers a good balance of strength, machinability and corrosion resistance at lower cost. 7075-T6 is significantly stronger (~572 MPa vs ~310 MPa) for weight-critical high-load applications, but harder to machine and more expensive.

Can you anodize aluminum CNC parts?

Yes. We offer Type II anodizing in clear, black and custom colours, and Type III hard anodizing (25–50μm). Surface must be machined to Ra ≤1.6 for best anodizing quality.

What tolerances can you hold on aluminum CNC parts?

Standard tolerances are ±0.05mm for milled features and ±0.01mm for bored holes. With precision grinding we achieve ±0.005mm on critical dimensions.
