CNC Machining of High-Strength Materials
For applications where failure is not an option. We specialize in the precision machining of a wide range of high-strength metals and polymers, delivering components that withstand extreme stress, heavy loads, and harsh environments.
Our Comprehensive Selection for Demanding Applications
Strength is not a single attribute. We offer a wide range of materials, each providing a unique combination of tensile strength, hardness, toughness, and wear resistance to meet your specific high-stress application.
High-Strength Steels
Alloy Steel
The workhorse for high-strength mechanical components. By adding elements like chromium and molybdenum, these steels achieve excellent hardness and toughness.
Common Grades: 4140, 4340 (Ideal for gears, shafts, fixtures, and high-stress applications).
Tool Steel
A class of ultra-hard, abrasion-resistant steels designed for extreme conditions. Machining them requires deep expertise.
Common Grades: A2, D2, S7, H13, P20 (Perfect for manufacturing molds, dies, and high-wear tooling).
Stainless Steel
Provides an excellent blend of strength, toughness, and superior corrosion resistance. Certain grades can be hardened to remarkable levels.
High-Strength Grades: 17-4 PH (precipitation-hardening), 440C (highest hardness stainless steel).
High-Strength Non-Ferrous Metals
Titanium
The undisputed champion of the strength-to-weight ratio. Delivers the strength of steel at roughly half the weight, making it essential for aerospace and performance applications.
Common Grade: Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5).
High-Strength Aluminum
While known for being lightweight, certain aluminum alloys offer impressive strength, rivaling that of mild steel.
High-Strength Grade: 7075-T6 (One of the strongest aluminum alloys available, widely used for high-stress airframe structures).
High-Performance Polymers
PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone)
The strongest machinable plastic, offering incredible mechanical strength that can replace metal in many applications. It maintains its properties at high temperatures and in harsh chemical environments.
Common Grades: Unfilled, Glass-Filled, Carbon-Filled grades.
PA+GF30 (30% Glass-Filled Nylon)
A reinforced engineering plastic that provides significantly higher tensile strength and stiffness compared to standard nylon, making it suitable for structural applications under load.
PEI (Ultem)
A high-performance polymer offering a great combination of high strength, rigidity, and high temperature resistance, often used in aerospace and medical applications.
Turning Toughness into Precision: Our Machining Expertise
High-strength materials are notoriously difficult to machine. They demand robust equipment, specialized tooling, and deep process knowledge. This is where Jucheng's 13+ years of experience makes the difference.
| Challenge | Jucheng's Solution |
|---|---|
| Work Hardening (in Stainless Steel) | We employ rigid machine setups, low cutting speeds with high feed rates, and specialized coated tooling to cut cleanly beneath the previously hardened layer. |
| Low Thermal Conductivity (in Titanium) | Our machines are equipped with high-pressure coolant systems that blast away heat from the cutting zone. We also use specific toolpaths that minimize tool engagement. |
| Abrasiveness & Hardness (in Tool Steel) | We utilize advanced carbide tooling and powerful, high-torque CNC machines that can handle the high cutting forces required for these materials. |
| Brittleness (in some hardened alloys) | Our expert programmers use smooth, tangential toolpaths and avoid sharp directional changes to prevent chipping and ensure a superior finish. |
