Experienced Plastic Machining Turned Parts

Certainly, with most Engineering Plastics, while turning on a lathe, you can go extremely quickly with your feeds and speeds. Examples of some the materials are, Acetal, Nylon, PTFE, ABS, PVC and so on. Most noteworthy, in most but not all cases, the chips stay together, forming a ribbon and are easily removed from the Machine. Also, your tools will not dull or wear (practically not at all). Standard high-speed steel will be ample for turning every day Engineering Plastic. Whereas Insulation industrial Plastic require far more specialist care and techniques.

Next, it is worth noting, you do not need Machining fluid. That is to say, the surface finishes obtained, feel and look great. Also, high standards of tolerance and finish are achieved. Also, tools that cut steel or aluminium will generally work very well with most Plastic. So much so, in many cases, there are no special tooling requirements. Hence no added tool costs to pass on.

Experienced Plastic Machining Milled Parts

Similarly, for milling most Plastic, the above can be applied. Hence, the Engineering Plastic milled, are again, fast speeds and feeds, with some exceptions and individual preferences. Moreover, when milling Plastic, it can be less problematic than turning. Mainly due, to the lack of a ribbon, continuous swarf, being generated. Importantly, Sentinel has a large capacity milling capability. Also, with many Machines dedicated to specific materials to prevent cross contamination. Also, as with turning, no coolants are required. Indeed, the use of coolants can be detrimental to many insulation materials.

Examples of Capacity Available at Sentinel

Significantly, Sentinel have 15 No CNC Machines, which includes 2 Mazak VCN 530C with 5 No XYZ 1020 VMC. Also 3 Bridgeport’s VMC plus 2 ProTurn Lathes and a 2 Mazak Mill/Turn. These are just a few of the Machines that are available to produce Quality Plastic CNC Components.

CNC Milling Plastics

Firstly, the term Milled Parts, or Milling Machining, are used to describe a Machining Parts process. So, simply put, Milling in Engineering is a method of producing Parts or Components on a Machine, via a cutter, with movement in various directions. Thus, blocks of Material, in this case Plastics, are placed on a Milled Parts Machining table. Finally, Parts clamped to prevent movement, and a cutter removes Material to designated coordinates. An in-depth description can be found here.

Plastic Milling

Importantly, Milling Plastics can differ greatly from the traditionally Milled metals and alloys. Certainly, Experience is key when working with the many different types of Plastics in today’s marketplace. Also, in traditional Milling coolants are commonly key to producing the required results. Noteworthy, when Milling Plastic Materials, coolants must be carefully introduced. Notably, they can be detrimental to the Parts functionality. For example, GPO or Polyester Glass type Materials can suffer from moisture ingress. Hence, with these Materials being used for Insulation in electrical systems, this could be catastrophic. Moreover, the processing of GPO must be without any coolant or cutting compounds. So, this is just one Material amongst many hundreds of types, and variants of types, of available Plastics. Finally, all of which require a particular skill set to Machine.

CNC Milling Parts

Plastic CNC Milled Parts. In short, this is the process of Milling Plastic block via numerically controlled systems. So, Online programming, on the Milling console, or offline programming, PC database programmed and then transferred to the Machine for execution. Again, when Machining Plastics, careful consideration must be taken. Certainly, the very same considerations previously discussed will come into play. Moreover, most today’s work is carried out on CNC Programmed Millers and Lathes. Most importantly, the Company has carefully chosen the high-Quality methods it now employs for Milled Parts.

Quality Parts Milling

Whilst being able to offer an excellent reliable Service, built-up over many years. Notably, with individual staff members having over 30 years’ Experience in the field of Plastics Engineering. Importantly, it is essential to be able to back this up with a Quality system that ensures that customers are getting the Components they require, not only on time, but to a high-Quality standard and finish.

Certainly, for many years now, we have been working with the B.S.I. maintaining our I.S.O. 9001 Quality standard. This, combined with a long-proven track record, our commitment to Quality is never in doubt.
