To achieve better results in precision machining, it is important to take into account the machinability of the parts, in which additives are used in the steel composition. Depending on the type of additives used, some results or others are achieved in the molecular structure of the steel, which can cause the reduction of other physicochemical properties such as resistance to oxidation or weldability.
When parts are manufactured precision machining Steels with a high sulfur and/or lead content are usually used, depending on the use and specific requirements of each piece. By using a steel that has a high sulfur content, it makes work in machining centers easier, because the machinability of the part is improved and very good results are obtained. Sulfur creates a fragmented chip during the manufacturing process of the machining part, reducing the forces used on the cutting plate, which translates into an improvement in the useful life of the tool used in the CNC machine and makes make the machining process easier.
Lead also helps in machining, in approximate quantities of 0.2%, since being insoluble used at low temperatures generates a tiny projection of particles that make chip breakage easier, obtaining effects similar to those generated for sulfur.
In some cases, the design or functionality of the piece may require a steel that is more difficult to machine, as is the case with stainless steel. In this case, it is essential to have an appropriate cutting tool and CNC center, making it as easy as possible. the elaboration of the machining.
There are various materials to make precision machining, from common steels to special steels, such as carbon steel, titanium, stainless steel... through a wide variety of non-ferrous metals, such as brass, aluminum or bronze, and even technical plastics.
