What are the steps of small batch processing for Aluminum alloy prototype ?
Generally, Aluminum alloy processing is CNC processing. Duochuang prototype has rich experience for aluminum alloy processing,The following is a brief introduction to the processing steps:
1.Design drawings:
Generally,It is to need professional designer personnel to finish commonly.The 3D drawings are required for small batch processing of aluminum alloy, such as IGS,STP,STEP and so on.
2.Programming:
The programmer analyzes 3D data and writes the programming language to control the CNC machining center.
3.CNC processing
With execute the program command, the cutting tool in accordance with the path set by the program which Engraving back and forth on the aluminum alloy material, removing the excess parts to get the original prototype.
4. Polishing
After theCNC processing, the surface will have burrs and tool marks.The purpose of sanding is to polish or sandpaper。 Use thicker sandpaper first, and then use thinner sandpaper to finish the polishing process.
5.Assembly:
The aluminum alloy prototype processed parts for assembly and to do data detection of production assembly problems.
6. Surface treatment
The surface treatment including: spray paint, anodizing and laser etching and so on.Spray paint is sprayed on the surface of aluminum alloy, and ensure the same color as the design drawings, the benefits of bright color and luster, lasting, not easy to fall off; TheOxidation is anodizing treatment, from its surface oxidation reaction, forming a layer of film, so that the product is not easy to scratch. Laser etching is to remove the paint on the surface of the product, so that part of the position is transparent.
