What is CNC Gear Grinding 3003 Aluminum and how is it done?
CNC Gear Grinding 3003 Aluminum refers to gear grinding finishes hardened gear teeth to high accuracy class for quiet, durable transmission. Applied to 3003 Aluminum — lightweight with excellent machinability — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Gear Grinding 3003 Aluminum?
Achievable tolerances for 3003 Aluminum gear cutting depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. We hold tight, repeatable tolerances appropriate to the feature and material. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
What gear accuracy class can you achieve on 3003 Aluminum?
Gear accuracy is specified to DIN/AGMA classes appropriate to the application. Profile and lead are controlled so 3003 Aluminum gears run accurately and quietly under load.
Can VT machining make custom 3003 Aluminum parts to my drawing?
Yes. 3003 Aluminum gear cutting is made to order from your CAD/2D drawing. Share your geometry, material grade, tolerance and quantity and we will confirm feasibility, lead time and pricing.
