In this paper we present a technological problem encountered in the machining accuracy of the parts for aerospace, made of aluminium alloy extruded profile with 7 meters length. Those parts have very tight tolerances and on milling process appear deviations due to thermal expansion effect, that influence the repeatability of machining processes. Through several tests and recording all values during the milling process, was defined through Taguchi method the main factors which have impact on the machined parts.
