Aluminum Machined Parts & Services

We provide innovative, custom solutions for a wide range of industries and applications—pairing design-for-manufacture support with responsive lead times. Aluminum CNC machined parts are a common, cost‑effective choice thanks to their light weight, strength, machinability, and natural corrosion resistance. Explore our core CNC machining services and industries served for examples of how we help teams move from concept to parts in hand.

D.W. Ram is a leader in aluminum machined parts manufacturing and aluminum machining services in Chicago. We provide innovative, custom solutions for a wide variety of industries. Aluminum is a common and cost-effective choice for many applications. Aluminum CNC machined parts are valued for their light weight, strength, and corrosion resistance.

Silver in color, aluminum is non-magnetic, light, and easily machined. It is a highly malleable and ductile material that can be used in a wide variety of applications. Copper, zinc, or magnesium are typically added to aluminum to increase its strength. Aluminum is also non-toxic and protective making it a good choice for the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Aluminum is a soft, silvery-white metal alloy renowned for exhibiting a high strength without the weight of other materials. It also naturally generates a thin oxide coating that protects against corrosion and degradation. Other benefits include:

• High strength‑to‑weight ratio
• Excellent machinability and formability
• Good thermal/electrical conductivity
• Natural corrosion resistance
• Recyclability

D.W. Ram has the knowledge and experience to machine parts with any of the following aluminum grades:

• Aluminum 2011 — excellent machinability and surface finish.
• Aluminum 2024 — high strength and fatigue resistance.
• Aluminum 6061 — versatile, strong, corrosion‑resistant. 
• Aluminum 7075 — very high strength for demanding use.
