About Brass Machining
Brass is a metal alloy with low friction and a golden appearance. Offers good machinability, excellent accuracy, repeatability, and excellent electrical conductivity. Ideal for applications requiring low friction, 3-axis, and 5-axis CNC milling, and CNC turning are available.
Tirapid can customize brass machining parts of various structures for you, the most suitable shapes, right angles, deep holes, curved surfaces, and arcs. If you have needs, you can contact our mechanical experts immediately.
Advantages of Brass Parts Machining
Also known as special brass, is an alloy of copper and zinc. Brass materials have high hardness, high strength, strong corrosion resistance, and strong wear resistance. Among copper materials, brass has the best mechanical properties.
Types of Brass Parts

Brass Machining Parts Series
It uses carbide tools to increase material removal rates and reduce CNC tool wear. The machining speed of CNC turning can be adjusted to higher operations. Proper programming is critical to CNC Turning for brass parts, it reduces scrap rates and reduces time and cost.
Rapid prototyping, CNC machines can create prototypes with very complex designs. High precision, reduced development costs, and rapid prototyping are critical processes before mass production
CNC Milling of brass is a common method of machining brass. Brass alloy plates are machined into the structure the engineer needs. This can be a simple plate shape or a multi-faceted and complex part. The most common multi-faceted part machining on the market, 5-axis CNC milling machines are unmatched.
CNC laser cutting is performed by moving a CO₂, YAG or fiber-driven laser cutting head on the workpiece using the CNC’s tool. CNC cutting is precise and fast and is ideal for producing high quality parts.
The surface of brass is easy to for an oxide film, so it must be coated with anti-rust oil and sealing protection during or after processing.
Of course, copper processing is widely used in various industries, and it is also a material with excellent workability. We use the best processing procedures and more precise equipment. The dimensional accuracy of the product fully meets the drawing requirements.
Brass is one of the easiest metal materials to work with. It is close to the hardness of aluminum. Machining can be done without the need for more expensive machining tools.
Simple parts can be completed in 1 day at the earliest, and a dimensional inspection report of the parts is provided.
