Brass & Aluminium Turned Components

Brass & Aluminium Turned Components

Brass & Aluminium Turned Components are produced with special tools, which are distinguished by special turning tools, a bar feed mechanism and a pressure cooling lubrication. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. It is harder than copper but not as hard as bronze. The melting point is lower than that of bronze and decreases with increasing zinc content. Unlike copper or aluminium, the castings do not contain gas that could affect the quality of the casting. Brass is not magnetic, so it is generally not affected by magnetic fields and does not produce sparks. Therefore, it can be used for special tools.
