CNC Drilling 1060 Aluminum from VT machining delivers precision 1060 Aluminum parts made to your exact drawing. Programmed drilling produces accurately positioned holes, including deep and pattern hole arrays, with parameters tuned to 1060 Aluminum, which is lightweight with excellent machinability.
CNC Drilling Capability for 1060 Aluminum
- Lightweight (~2.7 g/cm³)
- Excellent machinability
- Tolerance to ±0.01 mm
- Anodising-ready
Machining 1060 Aluminum with CNC Drilling
When machining 1060 Aluminum, machinability is excellent; high cutting speeds and superb finishes achievable. Our process plan reflects this so the finished part holds its tolerances without distortion or poor finish.
Documented parameters for 1060 Aluminum mean predictable cycle times and stable, repeatable results.
Design Tips for CNC Drilling 1060 Aluminum
Small design adjustments often cut cost and lead time. Generous internal radii, sensible pocket depth-to-width ratios and avoiding very thin unsupported walls all reduce cost and improve accuracy in 1060 Aluminum. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Most 1060 Aluminum parts need some finishing, which we manage in-house or through vetted partners. Options include deburring and edge-breaking, heat treatment, surface grinding, polishing, and plating or anodising for corrosion resistance and appearance. Give us the finished-part requirement and we will sequence every operation correctly.
CNC Drilling Tolerances & Surface Finish
For CNC Drilling, dimensional and positional tolerances around ±0.01 mm are routine, tightening toward ±0.005 mm on precision setups. Surface finish on machined faces typically falls in the Ra 0.4–1.6 µm range depending on tooling and pass strategy.
Exact achievable figures depend on the alloy, the feature size and the part geometry. Tell us which dimensions are critical and we will advise feasibility up front.
Why 1060 Aluminum?
Customers select 1060 Aluminum for CNC Drilling because it is lightweight with excellent machinability. We handle grade verification and any required heat treatment or finishing.
