Industrial Plastic CNC Machining Multi Material Customized For Medical
Plastic CNC Machining Multi Material POM Nylon PTFE Industrial Medical
The Application of Plastics in The Medical Industry
| Material | Core Properties | Machining Tips | Medical Applications |
|---|---|---|---|
| POM | High rigidity, low friction, chemical resistance | High-speed cutting with cooling to prevent thermal deformation | Endoscope components, dosing pump parts |
| Nylon | High toughness, wear resistance, moisture control | Dry machining or humidity control to avoid swelling | Surgical tool handles, sterilization trays |
| PTFE | High-temp (260°C), chemical inertness, self-lubricating | Low-speed cutting with sharp tools to reduce gumming | Catheter coatings, non-stick implant surfaces |
| PEEK | High-temp (260°C+), biocompatible, high strength | High-temperature machining to avoid delamination | Orthopedic implants, dental instruments |
| ABS | Impact resistance, dyeability, low cost | Low feed rate with cooling to prevent warping | Medical device housings, prosthetic prototypes |
| PC | Transparency, UV resistance, impact resistance | Avoid overheating tools to reduce stress cracks | Dialysis machine housings, surgical windows |
| PEI (Ultem) | Flame retardant, high-temp (170°C), dimensional stability | High RPM tools to avoid carbonization | Sterilization trays, endoscope frames |
| PMMA | Optical clarity, weather resistance, polishable | Low-speed cutting with coolant to prevent melting | Surgical light covers, lab equipment windows |
| HDPE | Corrosion resistance, lightweight, food-safe | Sharp tools to minimize burrs | Medical packaging, labware |
