Aluminum is the most widely machined metal in the world — and for good reason. It machines approximately 3–5x faster than stainless steel, which directly reduces cycle time and cost per part. Its strength-to-weight ratio makes it the default choice for aerospace, automotive, and consumer electronics applications where every gram matters. And its corrosion resistance, when enhanced with anodizing, makes it suitable for outdoor, marine, and precision instrument applications where bare steel would fail.
Robocon CNC stocks all standard aluminum alloys in bar, plate, and tube — 6061-T6 for general engineering, 7075-T6 for aerospace and high-stress applications, 6082-T6 for structural European-standard parts, and 2024-T3 for fatigue-critical aerospace applications. Material certificates (EN 10204 3.1 for European customers, ASTM/AMS for US) are maintained on all stock and supplied with every order.
We offer Type II and Type III anodizing in-house for aluminum parts — from natural clear to black, and hard anodize for wear-resistant applications. Anodizing is priced and confirmed at the quote stage, not added as a surprise at invoicing.
The most popular aluminum for CNC machining. Excellent machinability, good corrosion resistance, weldable, and widely available in all forms. Ideal for structural brackets, enclosures, housings, and general industrial components. Best all-round choice for most applications.
Tensile strength: 310 MPa · Machinability: Excellent
Highest-strength standard aluminum alloy — used in aerospace structural components, motorsport (F1 chassis brackets), and any application where maximum strength-to-weight is required. Not weldable. Machines slightly slower than 6061 but produces excellent surface finish.
Tensile strength: 572 MPa · Machinability: Good
The European equivalent of 6061, widely specified in German, Swedish, and UK engineering drawings as EN AW-6082. Good strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and fully weldable. Standard choice for structural engineering in Europe. EN 10204 3.1 material certificates available.
Tensile strength: 310 MPa · EN AW-6082 equivalent
High-strength, fatigue-resistant aluminum used in aircraft skin panels, airframe structures, and aerospace components where cyclic loading is a design consideration. AMS 2770 heat treatment available. Not as corrosion-resistant as 6061 — typically used with cladding or anodizing.
Tensile strength: 483 MPa · AMS/ASTM grades available
Non-heat-treatable aluminum alloy with excellent resistance to seawater and industrial chemical environments. Retains ductility at cryogenic temperatures — used in LNG storage, pressure vessels, and marine structural applications.
Tensile strength: 290 MPa · Excellent corrosion resistance
Precision cast aluminum tooling plate with minimal residual stress — does not distort after machining. The preferred choice for precision inspection fixtures, semiconductor stage components, and jigs where flatness and dimensional stability are critical. Ra 0.4 surface finish achievable.
Flatness: ±0.1 mm/m · Stability: Excellent
Anodizing is the most common surface treatment for CNC machined aluminum — improving corrosion resistance, surface hardness, and aesthetics. We offer three types as part of a complete single-supplier service.
Standard anodizing (7–25 μm). Improves corrosion resistance and accepts dye for colour. Available in natural (silver), black, and standard RAL colours. The most common finish for aluminum enclosures, brackets, and structural components.
Thickness: 7–25 μm · Colours: Natural, Black, Custom · Per MIL-A-8625 Type II
Hard anodizing (25–75 μm). Significantly higher surface hardness (350–500 HV vs 60–70 HV for the base alloy). Wear-resistant — used for sliding surfaces, threaded inserts, and components subject to abrasion.
Thickness: 25–75 μm · Hardness: 350–500 HV · Per MIL-A-8625 Type III
Hard anodize with PTFE (Teflon) impregnation for low-friction sliding surfaces. Used in precision linear slides, cam surfaces, and components where reduced friction is required alongside wear resistance. Does not accept dye — natural grey finish.
Friction coefficient: 0.05–0.08 · Thickness: 25–50 μm · PTFE filled
Anodizing should be specified before machining — the anodize layer adds approximately 50% of its thickness to each surface, which affects close-tolerance bores and mating faces. Our engineers will advise on pre-anodize machining allowances when you request a quote.
