Trace-A-Matic specializes in brass CNC machining of parts and assemblies using cutting-edge turning, milling, 5-axis centers, and high-speed cutting tools. Years of experience provide expert knowledge of cutting a wide range of brass materials, their characteristics, and how this material group reacts when machined. Tool selection, cutting pass depths, mill/lathe feed and speed, chip control, and high-pressure coolant are critical in controlling heat generation, which can cause part movement and tool deflection during the machining process. This level of skill ensures world-class precision machining that meets or exceeds the most demanding tolerances. The innovative Trace-A-Matic team is always available to review and guide you during the design and manufacturing process. Our goal is 100% customer satisfaction, providing AS 9100/ISO 9001:2015 certified quality machining resulting in timely turnaround and on-time delivery.
Cu3Zn2 Melting Point
1,650 to 1,720 °F
- Brass is a combination of copper and zinc metal alloy
- Easy to machine
