Material Characteristics:
Stainless steel: The tendency to work harden is significant and the tool is prone to wear (such as 304 stainless steel is required to use coated tools when cutting).
Cast iron: It is highly brittle and easily produces chips during cutting. Pay attention to the rigidity and chip removal efficiency of the machine tool.
Ferrous metal:
The "backbone" of industrial manufacturing
Material Characteristics:
Aluminum/aluminum alloy: low density (≈2.7g/cm³), good thermal conductivity, suitable for lightweight aerospace.
Titanium alloy: high specific strength, high temperature resistance (up to 600℃), used in aircraft engine components.
Nonferrous metals:
"Pioneer" of lightweight and high performance
Material characteristics:
High temperature alloy: It maintains high strength above 650℃ and is used in aircraft engine turbine blades.
Composite materials: Combining metal and ceramic/fiber, with high stiffness and wear resistance (such as Al-SiC composites).
Special Metals:
High temperature alloys (nickel-based, cobalt-based), metal-based composite materials (MMC)
