VT machining offers CNC Reaming for 3004 Aluminum (UNS A93004 / EN AW-3004), typically supplied H34. Mg addition makes it stronger than 3003; can-body alloy.
CNC Reaming Notes for 3004 Aluminum
Reaming 3004 Aluminum gives H7 holes with a fine finish; stock allowance is set by hole diameter so the reamer cuts cleanly.
For estimating, a 100 × 100 × 10 mm block of 3004 Aluminum weighs about 0.27 kg.

Does CNC Reaming 3004 Aluminum require dedicated tooling?
Most 3004 Aluminum machining work uses standard cutting tools and CNC programs; dedicated fixtures are made only when geometry or volume requires them.
What is the typical lead time and minimum order for CNC Reaming 3004 Aluminum?
CNC Reaming prototypes for 3004 Aluminum can be produced quickly and scaled to series production. Send your drawing and quantity and we will advise lead time and any minimum order.
What surface finish is achievable on 3004 Aluminum with CNC Reaming?
Surface finish on 3004 Aluminum is controlled to your specification; we confirm the achievable Ra against your callout.
Why is 3004 Aluminum a good choice for CNC Reaming?
3004 Aluminum is lightweight with excellent machinability, which makes it well suited to CNC Reaming. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished 3004 Aluminum machining part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
Can VT machining make custom 3004 Aluminum parts to my drawing?
Yes. 3004 Aluminum machining 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.
