VT machining specialises in CNC EDM Drilling AZ91D Magnesium. Because AZ91D Magnesium is ultralight with excellent machinability, and its machinability is excellent (fastest of structural metals); fire-safe chip handling required, we plan each job around the grade to protect accuracy and surface quality.
CNC EDM Drilling Capability for AZ91D Magnesium
- Lightest structural metal (~1.8 g/cm³)
- Excellent machinability
- High strength-to-weight
- Damping capacity
Machining AZ91D Magnesium with CNC EDM Drilling
AZ91D Magnesium behaves predictably under CNC EDM Drilling once parameters are dialled in: machinability is excellent (fastest of structural metals); fire-safe chip handling required, and we tune the operation accordingly.
We hold reference parameters for this grade, so repeat orders of AZ91D Magnesium run consistently from one batch to the next.
Design Tips for CNC EDM Drilling AZ91D Magnesium
We are happy to suggest design tweaks that improve manufacturability. EDM suits sharp internal corners, thin ribs and hardened AZ91D Magnesium that cannot be milled; allowing a small corner radius where possible speeds the cut. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
Why AZ91D Magnesium?
AZ91D Magnesium is chosen when a part needs what this grade offers — it is ultralight with excellent machinability. We confirm the grade and any temper or heat-treat condition with you before machining.
CNC EDM Drilling 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 AZ91D Magnesium part to print. Inspection reports, material certificates and first-article documentation can be supplied on request.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
Finished AZ91D Magnesium 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.
CNC EDM Drilling Tolerances & Surface Finish
EDM holds tolerances to roughly ±0.002–0.005 mm with no cutting force on the AZ91D Magnesium part, producing fine, controlled surface textures and sharp internal corners impossible to mill.
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.
Applications of CNC EDM Drilling AZ91D Magnesium
Customers order CNC EDM Drilling AZ91D Magnesium components for everything from instrumentation to structural and functional assemblies. Whether you need a single prototype or recurring production volume, the same process discipline applies.

Machined AZ91D Magnesium edges are clean and to specification; edge-break or deburring is added when your drawing calls for it.
What is CNC EDM Drilling AZ91D Magnesium and how is it done?
CNC EDM Drilling AZ91D Magnesium refers to fast-hole EDM drilling produces small, deep holes in hard metals, including starter holes for wire EDM. Applied to AZ91D Magnesium — ultralight with excellent machinability — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
What material thickness or size range suits CNC EDM Drilling AZ91D Magnesium?
We machine AZ91D Magnesium across a broad size range; share your part envelope for confirmation.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC EDM Drilling AZ91D Magnesium?
Achievable tolerances for AZ91D Magnesium EDM machining depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. EDM holds tolerances to around ±0.002 mm with no cutting force on the part. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
Why is AZ91D Magnesium a good choice for CNC EDM Drilling?
AZ91D Magnesium is ultralight with excellent machinability, which makes it well suited to CNC EDM Drilling. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished AZ91D Magnesium EDM machining part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
