Plastic CNC bits are great for milling plastic and acrylic materials. They're especially useful for creating end-machined parts with holes and slots. The chuck must be able to withstand the forces created by the lathe spindle, and the workpiece material must have sufficient stiffness at high speeds to prevent damage
For these reasons, plastic cnc bits are often used in the prototyping process, which involves cutting a part out of a larger piece of material. A prototype is a test model that's used to help determine whether changes can be made before moving on to production
