Product Specification

In today’s fast-paced and quality-driven manufacturing environment, the demand for high-precision, custom stainless steel and aluminum turned parts is greater than ever. These components are the building blocks of countless mechanical systems and industrial applications—from automotive and aerospace to medical equipment and electronics. To meet stringent requirements for performance, durability, and dimensional accuracy, companies rely on specialized processing services that provide expert turning, machining, and finishing of metal parts.

The Role of Turned Parts in Modern Manufacturing

Turned parts are typically cylindrical or rotational components created by removing material from a metal workpiece as it spins on a lathe or CNC turning center. These parts are essential in a wide range of mechanical systems, where precision, alignment, and structural integrity are critical.

Common turned components include:

• Shafts
• Bushings
• Spacers
• Pins
• Nuts and fittings
• Housings and connectors

With the increasing complexity of product designs, these parts often require customization in terms of shape, thread type, surface finish, and material properties—particularly when dealing with stainless steel or aluminum.

Why Stainless Steel and Aluminum?

1.Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is prized for its corrosion resistance, high strength, and clean aesthetic. It is widely used in industries that demand hygienic or high-durability components, including:

• Medical and surgical equipment
• Food processing machinery
• Marine and chemical environments
• Industrial valves and fittings

Stainless steel's machinability varies by grade, but with the right tooling and process controls, it can be turned and finished with exceptional precision.

2.Aluminum

Aluminum is known for being lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and highly machinable. It is ideal for parts that require fast turnaround and intricate geometries. Aluminum turned parts are common in:

• Aerospace and automotive systems
• Consumer electronics
• Robotics and automation
• Heat sinks and structural frames

Both materials require specialized handling during machining to ensure optimal surface finishes and dimensional tolerances.

Custom Processing Services: From Prototype to Production

Custom processing services for stainless steel and aluminum turned parts encompass a wide range of capabilities tailored to client specifications. These include:

• CNC Turning: High-speed lathes and multi-axis turning centers produce precise, repeatable results for complex geometries.

• Threading and Grooving: Internal and external threading options, including metric and imperial threads.

• Drilling and Boring: Deep hole drilling and counterboring for intricate designs.

• Surface Finishing: Polishing, anodizing (for aluminum), passivation (for stainless steel), and coating options to enhance appearance and durability.

• Tight Tolerances: Achieving micrometer-level accuracy for critical applications.

Whether for prototyping or high-volume production, these services are essential for OEMs, engineers, and manufacturers requiring parts that integrate seamlessly into their systems.
