Precision CNC Machining of Plastic Components

What is Plastic Machining?

Plastic machining is about shaping and forming plastic materials into functional, working parts.  It incorporates a range of techniques and processes to be able to cut, shape and refine plastic materials for different projects. A common technique used within this is CNC machining which involves the use of computer-controlled machines to precisely carry out machine operations. They can do tasks like turning, drilling, milling, routing and sawing with high accuracy.

Various kinds of plastics are used in custom plastic machining, including thermoplastics and thermosetting plastics. Thermoplastics, like polyethylene, can be melted and reformed many times while thermosetting plastics, such as epoxy, have a chemical reaction during curing and can’t be re-melted.
