For this project, SYD Precision used simultaneous five-axis CNC machining to make 7075 aluminum parts. The photos show the parts as-machined, without any added surface treatment.
Project at a Glance
| Material | 7075 aluminum alloy |
| Process | Simultaneous five-axis CNC machining |
| Surface condition | As-machined; no additional surface treatment |
| Visible features | Curved profiles, circular openings, mounting tabs and holes |
Curved Profiles and Multi-Angle Features
The photographs show shaped aluminum components with flowing curved surfaces and raised circular openings. You can also see mounting tabs and holes along the edges. Together, the two views show the overall shape and the joins between flat, curved and circular features.
Simultaneous five-axis machining coordinates the tool and workpiece orientation during cutting. For curved parts, we review tool access, workholding and the cutting sequence together. We then choose the approach based on the drawing, model and required features.
As-Machined Aluminum Surface
We did not anodize, coat or add any other surface treatment to these parts. Instead, the photos show the surface left by machining. However, a photo alone cannot confirm a measured surface roughness value.
Planning a Similar 7075 Aluminum Part?
First, send your 3D model and 2D drawing. Mark critical dimensions and the required surface condition. Also identify mating surfaces, bores or mounting features that need special attention. We review these details before preparing a quotation.
