Precision turned parts are generally made from steel and non-ferrous metals:

Machining Steel

Particularly the material no. 1.0718 according to EN 10087 / 10277-3 and respectively 11SMnPb30 are the most suitable steel alloys regarding the mass production of turned parts, both production-orientated and in terms of the price of the finished part. Of course any other material of this material group can be processed as well.

Stainless Steel

In the field of stainless steel, the materials no. 1.4104 (X14CrMoS17, formerly X12CrMoS17), AISI 430F, 1.4305 (X8CrNiS18-9, formerly X10CrNiS18-9) and AISI 303 are considered to be especially suitable for machining. Generally, stainless steel is significantly harder to cut than machining steel. As a general rule this reflects in a higher price of the finished part. In the field of stainless steel, the above mentioned materials are the most advantageous alloys, both production-orientated and with regard to the product price. Of course any other material of this group can be processed as well.

Brass

The most advantageous brass alloy regarding machining is the material no. CW614N with the term CuZn39P3. This material is also the most cost-efficient brass in terms of pricing of the finished part. Of course any other material of this group can be processed as well.

Copper

The copper alloy according to EN 12164, EN 12166 and EN 12168 with the term Osna Cu 58 is considered to be the ideal material: because of its short-chipping quality and therefore particularly high process stability as well as long tool life, it is the ideal material with respect to a low price of the finished part. Any other material of this group can be processed as well. Because of its long-chipping characteristic, high-percentage (or rather pure copper) opposes a failure-free and automated cutting process. In this case, the complexity of the part's geometry determines the manufacturing options regarding this material.

Bronze

The material CuSn7ZnPb is a short-chipping, easy to process standard alloy of the copper-tin-zinc group with a good resistance against corrosion (even in salt water), soft and conditionally hard solderable. The main areas of application are journal bearings and bearing bushings for common engineering. Other alloys of this material group can be processed and offered as well.

Aluminum

In the field of aluminum, the materials no. 3.1645 and respectively EN AW-2007 with the chemical term AlCuMgPb, as well as the material no. 3.0615 respectively EN AW-6012 with the chemical term AlMgSiPb are considered to be especially suitable for machining.
