A Marketing Strategy for Plastic Turning

Plastic turning has become one of the most popular ways to cut precision plastic parts with a wood lathe. In fact, it's fully automated and usually more cost-effective than other methods. I wrote this short article to highlight some of the key benefits to learning how to use a plastic turning machine and what you can expect from using one on your next project

This article is meant as an introduction to plastic turning, so I'm not going into too much detail on all the different techniques that you can use when cutting plastic. Instead, I'll focus on one technique that is popular among those who are just getting started: cutting with a bow.

CNC Plastic Machining

CNC Machining Plastic Parts are widely used in all industries fields and most products around us in the world. And many plastic materials are suitable for machining processes.

Therefore, CNC machining plastic parts are important production way to make out plastic products.

Different plastics have different properties, with their low cost and multi-selecting reason, so CNC machining plastic parts are flexibly choose plastic materials for various functional products.

Different processing use different materials for its functional purpose. Normally we use ABS, PS, PC, Nylon, PEEK, PA, POM, etc. For plastic parts by CNC turning, milling, drilling; And apply finishing treatment on surface such as painting, powder coating, etc.

Benefits of CNC Plastic Machining

1/ Plastic materials have many series with different properties for different choice

2/ Plastic materials is soft, shape-keeping, and easy-cutting for CNC machining processes

3/ CNC machining plastic parts are light-weight for product using

4/ CNC machining plastic parts are non-conductive of electricity, supporting many non-conductive parts

5/ CNC machining plastic parts are flexible to change the shape, benefiting the prototyping time and cost

6/ Plastic parts material supporting recycle collecting, material renewal benefits the burden of world
