Available Surface Finishes of Aluminum Parts
When finishing a project or commission, choosing the correct aluminum surface treatment is crucial. Anodizing, powder coating, painting, and polishing are all popular ways to finish metal. Anodizing produces a protective coating on aluminum's surface. Powder coating offers a wide choice of colors and weather resistance. Painting is chosen for a high-gloss finish, while polishing offers mirror, brushed, or satin surfaces. Each surface finish option must be considered based on project needs to decide which is best.
Anodizing
Anodizing is a useful surface treatment process where aluminum parts are electrochemically treated to create a durable and corrosion-resistant coating. This finish can also be used for colored anodizing, which not only adds color but also provides additional strength and protection from the outside elements that come with any anodizing treatment.
Powder Coating
Powder coating of aluminum parts provides a strong and more textured finish than traditional paint, as well as improved UV light resistance. This makes it an ideal option when using exterior parts exposed to harsh conditions. Powder coating provides a protective layer that not only creates a better look but also offers more durability and a longer-lasting texture than other coatings.
Painting
Painting is a critical step in many aluminum fabrication processes. It offers a range of finishes, from the traditional glossy to a more subtle and modern matte look. Working with painting for aluminum is especially beneficial due to its durability and resistance to corrosion, meaning it will last longer while maintaining an aesthetically pleasing finish.
Polishing
Polishing is an important step in producing aluminum parts with a professional-grade finish. Typically, polishing is used to create a mirror finish, but various polishing methods can also be used to achieve a brushed or satin finish. Given the different grades of aluminum and anodizing, polishing aluminum parts requires special chemicals and polishes to create the desired effect.
A Complete FAQ Guide

What Is Aluminum Machining?
Aluminum machining is a subtractive manufacturing method that removes material from a workpiece to generate aluminum components of your chosen size and design. There are several materials utilized in CNC machining techniques, but aluminum machining is a good process for making components due to its increased formability and less weight. The aluminum metal is placed in the CNC machine, and the machine's spindle removes material from the aluminum workpiece to make a certain shape or pattern.
Aluminum machining may be accomplished using a variety of procedures, including milling, turning, and drilling. Each of these machining technologies has distinct features, applications, and advantages. Machined aluminum pieces produced by the machining process can be used as prototypes to test various product concepts. Using 3-axis, 4-axis, 5-axis, and multi-axis spindles, this procedure creates aluminum pieces with incredible evenness and fine finishing.
CNC Aluminum Machining Techniques
- CNC milling: Aluminum parts by CNC milling are created by using sharp rotatory cutting tools that remove the excess material from the aluminum workpiece.
- CNC turning: In CNC turning the aluminum parts are produced by holding the material vertically and then applying a cutting tool to remove the excessive pieces of the material.
- CNC drilling: In the production of machined aluminum parts by CNC drilling, the aluminum workpiece does not move, instead, the cutter moves and rotates to form desired shapes.
- EDM: Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a machining method in which the aluminum parts are created by the controlled removal of metal with the help of an electric spark.
What Are The Applications Of Aluminum Machined Parts?
- Automotive: Aluminum machined parts are used in the automotive industries for auto frames, wheels, lamps, and handles of the vehicle doors. The corrosion-resistant property of aluminum makes it ideal for the auto sector.
