Magnesium and magnesium alloys are the easiest of all metals to machine, allowing machining operations at extremely high speed. All standard machining operations such as turning, parting, drilling, milling, tapping, threading, counterboring, broaching, reaming, sawing, and grinding are commonly performed on magnesium parts. The general description of the main operations is given on this webpage.
