Turning of mechanical aluminum parts: why call on a specialized company?

The turning of aluminum parts is a complex process requiring the technical know-how of a professional. Company specializing in precision industrial mechanics, SMEPI ensures the manufacture of your bar turning and mechanical parts according to plans. Discover our range of expertise.

​

What does the work of a specialist in turning aluminum parts consist of?

​

For small and medium series production, entrust your bar turning work to professionals. These are very delicate operations and they require great precision, especially if the parts are intended for use in critical conditions.

​

They also require a good knowledge of the chemical and mechanical properties of the metals to be worked and of the adapted machining methods. Only experts have the necessary skills in this area.

​

Bar turning is part of the machining processes for mechanical parts, connecting and fixing elements as well as mechanical sub-assemblies. It makes it possible to produce turned mechanical parts and transform a raw product into a final product. Bar turning works on the principle of material removal, which consists in obtaining the final shape of the part by tearing off material (formation of chips). As part of the bar turning of a mechanical part, it will be necessary to proceed upstream with the roughing - dressing, turning, threading - before starting the intermediate stages - milling, knurling, drilling. The finish and surface treatments complete the operation and improve the appearance (shine, texture, color), or the physical properties of the part. Whether it is the type of bar turning - traditional, with mechanical lathes or numerically controlled - it is essential to entrust it to a specialist such as SMEPI.

​

Therefore, using the service of an aluminum bar turning company is essential for the creation of aluminum parts. This specialist puts specialized technicians at your service; they will be able to offer you solutions adapted to your needs. To choose them, we recommend that you base yourself on the quality of their services and years of experience in the field.

​

The machines used by a specialist in aluminum bar turning

​

Aluminum bar turning companies use automated and multi-technological lathes with high precision and capable of producing small, medium or large series parts. Some bar turning machines are even suitable for milling or drilling as well as complete machining of the part.

​

On the latest numerically controlled models, the cams are absent. All the work is done by axes controlled by motors obeying a program developed on a computer, then introduced into that of the machine. This process allows a considerable saving of time as well as the production in small quantity. SMEPI is a recognized and experienced aluminum bar turning company.
