How to Mould Plastic On a CNC Mill

The first step to making plastic parts is to find a CNC milling machine that can handle your design. A milling machine is a type of computer-controlled machine tool that can cut, grind and drill materials. These machines are used in the manufacturing of all kinds of products, including automotive parts and home appliances

If you＊re looking for a unique way to make plastic parts for your next design project, then look no further than a CNC milling machine. Not only can you make precision-machined parts that are truly one of a kind, but using this technology means you can also mold extremely complex geometric shapes (such as t-rex jaw!).

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
