Expert Aluminum Part Machining Service
Aluminum part machining is when we cut and shape aluminum to make parts that work just right for your project. At Istar Machining, we use special machines called CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines to make aluminum parts that are super exact and high-quality.
Our 5-axis machining service can make even the most tricky shapes that other companies can’t do. We work with all kinds of aluminum like 6061-T6 and 7075-T6 that are strong but light.

Why Choose Aluminum for Your Parts?
Aluminum is great for many reasons:
- Light weight – It doesn’t weigh much but is still strong
- Won’t rust – It stands up to water and weather
- Conducts heat – It helps keep things cool
- Can be recycled – 90% of our aluminum chips get reused
- Looks nice – We can make it shiny or colorful with anodizing
