Start with the process. Material, cross-section, length and machining requirements then determine the appropriate configuration.
Steel requires an explicitly suitable configuration
Suitability for aluminium does not automatically imply suitability for steel. Specify the steel grade, wall thickness, cross-section and operations. For each model, check the stated materials, tools, clamping and cooling or lubrication.
Separate sawing from subsequent machining
For a saw, check its cutting diagram and angles; for a CNC centre, access to holes, slots and threads. State requirements such as stainless steel, a closed section or end machining explicitly. The categories below are starting points for assessment, not confirmation that every model processes steel.
Continue by application
The links below lead to relevant programme categories. Material suitability must be explicitly confirmed for the selected model; not every machine in a category can process every material.
