Raw Materials for Machining
Choosing the right materials is the key to a successful project. Materials have a profound influence on a product’s performance, appearance, and cost. CNC machines are capable of cutting a wide range of materials at very high speeds and feeds without sacrificing any quality due to the advancement of cutting tools.
Machinability
Materials with high machinability can be machined at higher speeds and feeds, CNC machine shops prefer materials with high machinability because they are easier to machine, require less tooling, and takes less time to finish.
There are a large number of machine shops unwilling to take on projects with low-machinability materials. GTA CNC machine Shop, Toronto, with its 30+ years of experience is capable of handling the majority of CNC machining projects. It is easier to find multiple CNC machine shops that work with high-machinability materials to make custom CNC parts.
Having a CNC project with high machinability material gives the ability to follow close tolerances with ease. The CNC Machining cost varies according to the machinability, for example, a low material removal rate will lead to higher CNC Machining costs because excess time is required to create the custom precision part.

Tensile Strength
Tensile strength is a material’s ability to resist tension caused by mechanical force. Tensile strength indicates a material’s ability to resist loads and stresses until it breaks.
In order to measure tensile strength, specimens are held on opposite ends and pulled with a monitoring force until they fail. The higher the tensile strength, the stronger the part. It is necessary to thread the ends or shoulders of the specimen used for testing so that it can be held whilst being tested. With similar specimens it is possible to determine yield strength.
Yield Strength
Yield strength is the maximum force that can be applied before visible signs of plastic deformation appear. In general, stronger material will have a lower CNC machineability, thus costing more to produce custom parts.
Weldability
Metals’ weldability is measured by how easily they can be welded. Composition and grain size determine the weldability of a metal. A weld is formed by melting the ends of two pieces of metal and inserting a filler material.
An electric arc is used to weld two metal pieces together. During the melting process, an electric current drives the arc, which heats up the metal to a point where it melts. A welded joint can be stronger than either piece of metal alone when the molten metal cools and solidifies. Due to the high temperatures involved, the process can be challenging and dangerous.
It is necessary for a material to possess certain properties in order to weld. Its melting point, its resistance to high temperatures, and its ability to be joined with other materials are just a few of these characteristics. Before choosing metal for your project confirm the weldability. Low carbon steels are easier to weld, Medium carbon steels need preheat to avoid the weld cracking. Some of the machine shops do not weld Aluminum or Titanium alloys. Contact us for Titanium fabrication services
Metal Weight
Ensure that the metal you are using for your project is the appropriate weight before moving forward. There is a significant weight difference between steel and aluminum. when high strength is needed than steel is the most suitable choice, but for light weight parts and high corrosion resistance, Anodized aluminum material may be better choice. Aluminum anodizing can be done easily to achieve the desired color for appearance or rust prevention.
CNC Machining Material
Machine Shops
Nowadays, most machine shops can machine most metals thanks to advanced tools and coatings, but still some shops stay away from titanium and Inconel alloys. Titanium and Inconel are common materials at GTA Machining Solutions. Materials commonly found in machine shops are listed below
Aluminum

Grade 316 is the standard molybdenum-bearing grade, second in importance to 304 amongst the austenitic stainless steels. The molybdenum gives 316 better overall corrosion resistant properties than Grade 304, particularly higher resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments. It has excellent forming and welding characteristics. It is readily brake or roll formed into a variety of parts for applications in the industrial, architectural, and transportation fields. Grade 316 also has outstanding welding characteristics. Post-weld annealing is not required when welding thin sections.
420
17-4PH
17-4 Precipitation Hardening is a chromium-copper precipitation hardening stainless steel used for applications requiring high strength and a moderate level of corrosion resistance. High strength is maintained to approximately 600 degrees Fahrenheit (316 degrees Celsius).

Titanium
Ti 6AI-4V/ Grade 5
Known as the “workhorse” of the titanium alloys, Ti 6Al-4V, or grade 5 Titanium, is the most commonly used of all titanium alloys. It accounts for 50 percent of total titanium usage the world over.
Its usability lies in its many benefits. Ti 6Al-4V may be heat treated to increase its strength. It can be used in welded construction at service temperatures of up to 600° F. This alloy offers its high strength at a light weight, useful formability and high corrosion resistance.
Ti 6AI-4V’s usability makes it the best alloy for use in several industries, medical, marine and chemical processing industries
GTA also machines grade 1 and grade 2 titanium, CNC machining works well on Titanium alloys .
Invar
64FeNi
Invar is a 36% nickel iron alloy which has the lowest thermal expansion among all metals and alloys in the range from room temperature up to approximately 230°C. The invar alloy is ductile and easily weldable, and machinability is similar to austenitic stainless steel. It does not suffer from stress corrosion cracking.
Invar is used where high dimensional stability is required, such as precision instruments, clocks, seismic creep gauges, valves in engines, antimagnetic watches, and large aerostructure molds.
