CNC sheet plastic

I'm sure you've heard about CNC, but it might mean different things to different people. And if you think about it, there are many trade names for CNC services. Sheet plastic is one. Let's take a look at what's involved in using this method of cutting parts out of material

CNC stands for Computer Numerically Controlled, which means that the computer sends a signal to a machine that does the cutting. The computer also controls the speed and direction of the tool so it can cut precisely where you want it to go

There are several different types of CNC machines, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. The most common type is called a direct-drive machine because it uses an electric motor to drive the cutting tool forward or backward at high speeds (we'll talk about speed later). There are also hybrid machines that use both direct and indirect drives. These machines can cut faster than direct-drive machines, but they tend to be more expensive because they require more parts and have more moving parts inside them

The next step after acquiring your CNC machine is finding someone who can help you get started with software so you can design parts on your computer before they are actually cut out of sheet plastic!

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
