CNC Turning 6063 Aluminum from VT machining delivers precision 6063 Aluminum parts made to your exact drawing. CNC turning rotates the workpiece against a single-point tool to produce cylindrical features, threads and grooves, with parameters tuned to 6063 Aluminum, which is lightweight with excellent machinability.
CNC Turning Capability for 6063 Aluminum
- Lightweight (~2.7 g/cm³)
- Excellent machinability
- Tolerance to ±0.01 mm
- Anodising-ready
Machining 6063 Aluminum with CNC Turning
The machinability of 6063 Aluminum is excellent; high cutting speeds and superb finishes achievable. For CNC Turning we select tooling, feeds, speeds and coolant to match, keeping the 6063 Aluminum workpiece stable and the result accurate.
Because we machine 6063 Aluminum regularly, proven settings shorten setup and keep quality repeatable across reorders.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
We complete 6063 Aluminum components with the secondary steps your drawing calls for. We arrange heat treatment, surface treatment, marking and assembly as needed. Tell us the final spec and we will plan the full route so parts arrive ready to use.
Design Tips for CNC Turning 6063 Aluminum
A few design choices make a real difference to cost and quality. Consistent diameters, standard thread forms and avoiding extremely long, slender features help 6063 Aluminum turned parts stay concentric and economical. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
CNC Turning Tolerances & Surface Finish
Turned 6063 Aluminum holds diameter tolerances to about ±0.005 mm with concentricity within 0.01 mm and good roundness. Turned finishes of Ra 0.4–0.8 µm are achievable with finishing passes and sharp tooling.
The tightest tolerances are reserved for the features your drawing flags as critical. Share your tolerance scheme and we will confirm what is realistic before quoting.
