VT machining offers CNC EDM Drilling for 1100 Aluminum (UNS A91100 / EN AW-1200), typically supplied O / H14. Small Cu addition gives slightly more strength than 1050 while keeping formability.
CNC EDM Drilling Notes for 1100 Aluminum
EDM drilling produces small, deep holes and wire start holes in 1100 Aluminum where a twist drill would wander or break.

Can you EDM-machine hardened 1100 Aluminum?
Yes. EDM removes material by electrical discharge rather than cutting force, so hardened and difficult 1100 Aluminum can be machined to fine detail and tight tolerance without distortion.
What is CNC EDM Drilling 1100 Aluminum and how is it done?
CNC EDM Drilling 1100 Aluminum refers to fast-hole EDM drilling produces small, deep holes in hard metals, including starter holes for wire EDM. Applied to 1100 Aluminum — lightweight with excellent machinability — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
What surface finish is achievable on 1100 Aluminum with CNC EDM Drilling?
Surface finish on 1100 Aluminum is controlled to your specification; we confirm the achievable Ra against your callout.
What material thickness or size range suits CNC EDM Drilling 1100 Aluminum?
We machine 1100 Aluminum across a broad size range; share your part envelope for confirmation.
