Understanding Plastics
Art and Science
Plastic Machining is not always straight forward!
Often when machining certain types of Polymers these two world collide!
Temperature, Friction, Pressure! Machinery, Cutting tools, Methodology!
Don't worry we live in the center of these two planets so you don't have too!
​
We are experts in Machining Engineering Plastics.
Many Engineering Plastics are Thermoplastics but that doesn't mean they are dimensionality stable under temperature changes. Some plastic tolerances hold better than others. Did you know some plastics componet measurements can change on a hot day vs a cold day? Even a 10° degree change can make a big difference.
Termoplastics are our specialty!
ABS, Acetal, Acrylic, Nylon,PEEK, Polycarbonate, Polythylene, Polythylene, Polypropylene, Polystyrene, UHMW, Ultem, and much More!
Need Thermosets?
We machine several types of Phenolics Canvas, Linean, Paper, G7, G9, G10, GPO3, as well as machinable grades of Ureathane.
Even some Elastomers can be Machined!
We take on some challanges other won't. you have a rubber or silicone project? Speak with us and see what we can do to help.
Also Non-Ferrous Metals such as
Aluminum, Brass, Bronze, Copper: These soft metals are easy to machine and often use the same tooling as plastic.
