CNC Machining Metal Material List
Alloy Steel
Powerful than carbon steel, more wear-resistant, more tear-resistant. Alloy steel is durable and can withstand high-temperature environments.
Aluminum
Aluminum is one of the most commonly used metals in the world because of its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, low cost, and recyclability.
Brass
Brass pairs well with various styles. Mixing it with natural materials can create a balanced and sophisticated look. Experiment with different textures for a stylish combination.
Bronze
Bronze is a copper-tin alloy with good castability and excellent wear resistance, corrosion resistance and chemical stability. And it is one of the most important metals in manufacturing different products.
Cast Iron
Cast iron is a group of iron-carbon alloys with a carbon content greater than 2%.It has exceptional durability and heat retention. It is commonly used for cookware.
Stellite
Stellite is a cobalt-based alloy that is wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant and resistant to high-temperature oxidation. DEK offers comprehensive CNC machining Stellite services, from prototyping to volume production, ensuring high-precision custom Stellite […]
Copper
Copper is a top choice for electrical wiring and electronics. It's an excellent conductor of electricity and heat. Plus, it's durable and easy to shape.
Inconel
Inconel is a group of high-performance alloys made of nickel, chromium, and iron, with additional elements like molybdenum and niobium. These alloys have outstanding resistance to corrosion, oxidation, and high temperatures.
Invar
Invar expands or contracts only slightly when exposed to temperature fluctuations. Its low CTE helps prevent warping, distortion, or other changes in the material's size and shape.
Kovar
Kovar is a nickel-cobalt ferrous alloy composed of approximately 29% nickel, 17% cobalt, 54% iron, and small amounts of other elements such as manganese and silicon.
Magnesium
Magnesium is one of the lightest structural metals. Despite its low density, it provides strength comparable to other structural metals. Plus, it’s a good conductor of electricity and heat.
Mild Steel
Forging, welding, and machining mild steel are some of DEK’s expertise. Because of mild steel’s high malleability and ductility, it can be easily formed, bent, and stretched without breaking.
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is durable, corrosion-resistant, and visually appealing. It's widely used because of its strength, low maintenance, and ability to withstand various temperatures and chemicals.
Titanium
Titanium is a well-known metal because of its strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance. This premium material is perfect for aerospace, jewelry, and medical industries.
Tool Steel
Tool steel is a specialized type of high-quality steel always available from DEK. Get precision cutting tools, dies, molds, and other tools for metalworking and plastic molding.
Tungsten Steel
Tungsten steel, also known as tungsten carbide, has extremely high hardness, wear resistance, high temperature resistance and good toughness.
TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
Basic Knowledge of CNC Machining Metals
What are Metals?
Metals are a group of elements known for their unique characteristics. They're excellent conductors of electricity and heat, can be shaped without breaking (malleability), and stretched into thin wires (ductility). Metals have a shiny appearance, called metallic luster, and are typically solid at room temperature. Their atoms are arranged in a crystal lattice structure, forming a "sea of electrons" that enables electrical conductivity. Common metals include iron, aluminum, copper, gold, and silver. These materials are used in various industries due to their excellent properties, contributing to advancements in construction, electronics, and transportation.
An alloy is a mix of two or more elements, including at least one metal, with a variable or fixed composition. Combining metals as alloys enhances their properties, making them less brittle, harder, corrosion-resistant, or with improved color and luster. Iron alloys, like steel and stainless steel, dominate in quantity and commercial value. Different ratios of metals produce variations like low-, mid-, and high-carbon steels. Other significant alloys include those of aluminum, titanium, copper, and magnesium, each valued for specific qualities, such as high strength-to-weight ratios.
