Manufacturer of aluminium turned parts
At INODEC, we machine more than 2.1 tons of aluminium per year from bar, forging or slugs. We machine aluminium on all types of machines and according to your specifications.
Mechanical properties of aluminium machined parts
- Very good machinability but relatively soft, therefore requires specific machining approaches to avoid deformation and damage.
- Oxidation and corrosion resistance
- Low density
- Thermal and electrical conductivity
- 100% recyclable

Characteristics and applications of machined aluminium parts
6 tonnes of aluminium are machined each year in INODEC’s workshops.
Different machining operations can be performed, including turning (to obtain precise diameters), drilling (to create holes), threading (to create threads), milling and other custom operations depending on the needs of the part.
On our multi-axis lathes, finishing operations can be performed to improve the surface quality of the part. This can include polishing, sandblasting, grinding or other techniques to achieve the desired finish.
Throughout the turning process, we carry out quality controls to ensure that dimensions, tolerances and specifications meet the requirements of ISO9001.
Depending on your needs and projects, we can machine all types of aluminium parts.
