VT machining specialises in CNC Boring 6063 Aluminum. Because 6063 Aluminum is lightweight with excellent machinability, and its machinability is excellent; high cutting speeds and superb finishes achievable, we plan each job around the grade to protect accuracy and surface quality.
CNC Boring Capability for 6063 Aluminum
- Lightweight (~2.7 g/cm³)
- Excellent machinability
- Tolerance to ±0.01 mm
- Anodising-ready
Machining 6063 Aluminum with CNC Boring
6063 Aluminum behaves predictably under CNC Boring once parameters are dialled in: machinability is excellent; high cutting speeds and superb finishes achievable, and we tune the operation accordingly.
We hold reference parameters for this grade, so repeat orders of 6063 Aluminum run consistently from one batch to the next.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Finished 6063 Aluminum parts can move straight into secondary operations under one roof. Typical add-ons are deburring, passivation, anodising, plating, blasting, polishing and laser marking. We coordinate the whole chain so you receive complete, inspection-ready parts.
Why 6063 Aluminum?
6063 Aluminum is chosen when a part needs what this grade offers — it is lightweight with excellent machinability. We confirm the grade and any temper or heat-treat condition with you before machining.
CNC Boring Tolerances & Surface Finish
Turned 6063 Aluminum holds diameter tolerances to about ±0.005 mm with concentricity within 0.01 mm and good roundness. Turned finishes of Ra 0.4–0.8 µm are achievable with finishing passes and sharp tooling.
Final tolerances are governed by the material's behaviour, wall thickness and overall stiffness. We give honest DFM feedback if a callout would be costly or better achieved another way.
Design Tips for CNC Boring 6063 Aluminum
We are happy to suggest design tweaks that improve manufacturability. Consistent diameters, standard thread forms and avoiding extremely long, slender features help 6063 Aluminum turned parts stay concentric and economical. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
CNC Boring Quality & Inspection
We control quality throughout the process, not just at the end. In-process checks plus final inspection — including CMM where specified — keep every 6063 Aluminum part to print. Inspection reports, material certificates and first-article documentation can be supplied on request.
