PTFE is a material that has superior properties due to the strong bonds between carbon and fluorine atoms in its molecular structure, is resistant to various chemicals, and has a wide application temperature range (between -250 and +250 degrees celsius) and is suitable for CNC machining. The average tensile strength of PTFE material is 28 MPa.

Like other manufacturing technologies, CNC machining has a wide range of materials. Each material in this range has advantages and disadvantages. We hope that this article has helped you select plastics used in manufacturing with CNC machining.

ABS is a raw material with a wide usage area and cost-effectiveness, preferred over 3D printing, CNC machining and injection molding manufacturing methods. It also has high impact strength and electrical resistance. The average tensile strength of ABS material is 43.7 MPa.

Polycarbonate (PC) plastic is a transparent thermoplastic material. Various colour options are available. It can also be translucent. The average tensile strength of PC material is 66.2 MPa.

Castermid, a type of polyamide, has very high impact resistance. It is ideal for use in products that require abrasion and impact resistance. Since it is a self-lubricating material, gear wheels are used in moving parts. This makes it a raw material alternative for parts such as rollers and gears produced using metal with CNC machining. The average tensile strength of castermid material is 80 MPa.

Acrylic is the trade name for PMMA plastic and is suitable for use in CNC machining. It has high impact resistance and surface resistance. It is scratch resistant. It is also a significant advantage because it can bond with acrylic cement. The average tensile strength of acrylic material is 69MPa.

Thanks to its low coefficient of friction and excellent wear and fatigue resistance, PET materials are one of the ideal products for constructing moving parts in CNC machining. It is frequently preferred in the food industry as it is suitable for contact with food. The average tensile strength of PET material is 70 MPa.

Looking for custom foam molding services? RCO Engineering specializes in custom-molded foam for various applications. We can create molded foam for anything from airplane seats to packaging prototypes.

RCO uses advanced equipment for custom milled and molded foam work. Our experienced team can create custom foam molded products like cushions and backs for premium seating. We can also produce other foam-based components for the automotive, defense, and VIP aerospace industries.

PEI (Polyetherimide) is one of the plastics with the highest mechanical strength and abrasion resistance among CNC materials. Due to its excellent hydrolysis resistance, PEI (Polyetherimide) is used as an alternative to metals in machining handles, fixtures, prostheses, medical lamps, reflectors, and medical and surgical instruments by machining. The average tensile strength of PEI material is 110 MPa.
