CNC Turning 1070 Aluminum

VT machining offers CNC Turning for 1070 Aluminum (UNS A91070 / EN AW-1070A), typically supplied O / H14. Higher purity grade for conductivity and anodised finish.

CNC Turning Notes for 1070 Aluminum

1070 Aluminum turns with good chip control at standard cutting data.

For estimating, a 100 × 100 × 10 mm block of 1070 Aluminum weighs about 0.27 kg.

Frequently Asked Questions

What material thickness or size range suits CNC Turning 1070 Aluminum?

Turned 1070 Aluminum parts are produced from bar or chuck stock across a wide diameter range.

Can VT machining make custom 1070 Aluminum parts to my drawing?

Yes. 1070 Aluminum turning 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.

What is CNC Turning 1070 Aluminum and how is it done?

CNC Turning 1070 Aluminum refers to cNC turning rotates the workpiece against a single-point tool to produce cylindrical features, threads and grooves. Applied to 1070 Aluminum — lightweight with excellent machinability — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.

How clean are the edges produced by CNC Turning on 1070 Aluminum?

Machined 1070 Aluminum edges are clean and to specification; edge-break or deburring is added when your drawing calls for it.
