Aluminium is one of the most machined materials available today. In fact, aluminium CNC machining processes are second after steel in terms of frequency of execution. Mainly this is due to its excellent machinability.
The chemical element aluminum is soft, ductile, non-magnetic, and silvery-white in color in its purest state. The element is employed in many ways than only its pure form, though. To create hundreds of aluminum alloys with a wide range of noticeably improved qualities, aluminum is typically alloyed with diverse elements such as manganese, copper, and magnesium.
