Brass CNC Machining
Brass is an alloy composed of 60%-70% copper and 30%-40% zinc. It has a beautiful yellow metal, good machinability and hardness. Brass CNC machining services are suitable for low-friction and complex components, such as valves, gears, bearings and locks, and can also be used to make some outdoor components.
Brass materials have been widely used in the electrical industry, instrumentation industry, shipbuilding industry and machinery manufacturing industry.

Bronze Surface Finishes for CNC Machined Parts
Brass bright cleaning: mainly is the copper surface stains, impurities, spots, oil stains and other dirt after thorough cleaning, restore the copper itself bright color.
Brass passivation: because copper is an active metal, in a humid or special environment, especially easy to oxidation of long spots, and even the phenomenon of copper green. Copper passivation can effectively protect the surface of copper parts.
Brass anodizing: copper parts as an anode, using electrolytic method to form oxide film on its surface.
Brass plating: plating can enhance copper corrosion resistance, increase hardness, prevent abrasion, improve electrical conductivity, smoothness, heat resistance and surface aesthetics.
Brass chemical polishing: the copper parts directly immersed in the copper chemical polishing solution, so that they quickly reach a bright as new beautiful color, while quickly remove the surface oxides, the surface dimensions will be changed accordingly.
For the past 17 years, in our custom brass CNC machining services, we have been dedicated to helping our customers meet their final delivery and keeping you ahead of your competitors.

The Best Method of Brass Milling
Setting Feed Rate
The feed rate is the speed at which the cutting tool engages the workpiece. Therefore, it is important to set the correct feed rate before machining brass parts, as it affects the quality, service life and surface finish of the brass part.
Design for manufacturability
Prior to machining brass, design requirements and specifications must be organized that will help achieve the functionality of the brass part. This includes reducing the number of part setups, dimensional checks and preventing deep cavities with small radii.
Reliable Tooling
Many brass sheets are machined softer than aluminum and steel of equivalent strength. This can lead to insert shaping and tool wear. Therefore, it is important to choose the right tool material. High speed steel is a suitable tool material for CNC machined brass.
People Also Ask
How hard is it to machine brass?
Brass is easy to machine, especially with copper alloys that have added lead, bronze is more difficult to machine than brass. Does brass machining a good bushing?
The application range of bushings is wide and varied. When custom CNC machining services and wanting to select the bushings suitable for the project needs, you must first consider the purpose of using the bushings and select different materials for the bushings according to different application scenarios. |
