M12V router plate

[Holbren]

Yes you can. Just make sure you take small passes to keep the temperatures down on the bit as well as the aluminum. It's a very soft metal and has similar characteristics to a really dense hardwood. I've done it many times and haven't had any problems. The bit I used for my plates was a holbren bit and it's still sharp after 3 plates.

Edit: Use slower rpms if possible.

Slow RPM's and keep them clean. The aluminum packs in the pocket and can cause problems.
