CNC Machining Materials

As developers of automobiles, trains, aircraft, heavy equipment and watercraft utilize lightweight materials to improve the weight, fuel economy and strength, the machine shops and service providers vying to manufacture their components must adapt. Take your material machining capabilities to the next level by partnering with KRC Machine Tool Solutions. We develop and build high-output automated specialty machine tools designed to produce complex components from advanced materials with exacting precision.

Design Flexibility


Aluminum
is valued for its combination of strength, flexibility, malleability, conductivity, reflectivity, and corrosion resistance. While highly formable and workable, this material can pose a challenge to facilities without the right machine tools.

Common issues encountered when fabricating aluminum include:

  • Chatter
  • Built-up edges
  • Thermal shock
  • Chip formation
  • Chip evacuation


Versatile and lightweight, composite materials are sturdy, protect against corrosion, and resist chemical degradation. However, transforming composite raw material into a finished part without proper machine tools is difficult.

Issues operators face when machining this material type include:

  • Premature tooling wear
  • Fraying
  • Chipping
  • Dust accumulation
  • Heat-affected zone creation
  • Micro-cracks
  • Void creation
