Machining (incl. stress relief)

AMTS has gained much experience in machining of magnesium parts made of various alloys (click here for alloys).

Machining of magnesium requires spacial care in the following aspects:

  • Types of tools
  • Materials for fixtures (to prevent galvanic effects during machining process)
  • Progress speed of etching
  • Emulsion types: controlled mixtures of oil and water (otherwise there is a potential for hydrogen morphosis)
  • Removal of chips
  • Surface treatment for temporal protection (click here for information)
  • Safety

Stress relief process is added to the machining process of accurate parts. The thermal treatment is done in-house.

The machining department of Palbam has the most advanced equipment:

  • 4 and 5 axis machining centers
  • CNC lathes combined milling head
  • Grinders
  • XYZ dimensional inspection systems with on-line feedback to the machine command
  • Grinding accuracy - ±2mm
