Cutting Polyethylene, Polypropylene, Caprolon

Curved cutting, milling and engraving services on a CNC milling machine  plastics.

Milling cutting of plastic:

Milling is a method of cutting and cutting sheet plastic, which allows   get a series of parts of verified quality in accordance with the drawing in the right quantity and quite economically. Some plastics can only be cut by cold milling. The cost depends on the volume of the series and the complexity of the cutting model chosen by the customer. Plastic milling (Kyiv) has a number of advantages over other types of material processing:

• processing system is fully automated;
• no chips and smooth cuts;
• ability to work with complex projects.

Human intervention is minimal,  mechanical precision ensures compliance with cutting algorithms. For the service of milling cutting of plastic, the price is calculated (both for moldings and for volumetric milling) individually, based on the client's layout, & nbsp; for a miscalculation, you can send it by mail.

Cutting polypropylene: features

Polypropylene is a type of plastic that is not afraid of high temperatures and is more resistant to sunlight.  Durable and wear-resistant material, perfectly dyed and harmless to humans.

It is very widely used in areas such as:

• light and food  industry
• instrumentation
• building
• chemical production
• manufacture of advertising and souvenirs, etc.

Hard and thermoplastic, polypropylene is used in various parts in the field of technology and electronics, stencils and templates, elements of outdoor and indoor decor,  promotional products. 

Cutting polypropylene with a router is used not only for cutting, but also for volumetric milling, when it is necessary to obtain products with grooves, holes or chamfers. CNC milling of polypropylene minimizes waste  in the manufacture  products for the most complex projects. 

Moreover, cutting this type of plastic sheet is safe even with laser processing, so in some cases it is advisable to use laser cutting of polypropylene.

Cutting polyethylene (PET)

Polyethylene  - is thermoplastic  material that is resistant to moisture and chemicals, & nbsp; strong, durable, frost-resistant  and non-toxic. 

Due to this, it is widely used in the production of household products, instrumentation, agriculture, construction, production of containers, etc.

Cutting  sheet polyethylene on a CNC milling machine   allow cutting with high accuracy and speed strictly in accordance with the drawings. Milling of polyethylene ensures cutting accuracy, a smooth edge, and a reduction in waste and rejects.

Polyethylene is recyclable, pictured is a detail cut from recycled polyethylene sheet (low density). The cuttings and waste after milling were sent to the next recycling cycle - ideal recycling.  

Cutting caprolon

Caprolon is a relatively new material with high strength and performance properties. Caprolon is not subject to corrosion, chemically resistant, environmentally friendly, easily withstands high temperatures and does not require special UV protection. 

But a special property - it has a low coefficient of friction,  quickly run in pairs  with metals, which allows it to be used in the manufacture of friction parts, increasing their resource.

Caprolon is used for the manufacture of bearings,guides and bushings of friction units, pulleys and rollers, seal parts, gears and the like in order to reduce noise, vibration and wear rate

Milling of sheet caprolon is carried out using CNC with high precision. The advantages of cutting caprolon in this way include:

• high speed and automated process;
• the ability to create complex shapes in an individual series;
• cut  details strictly according to the drawings
