CNC plastic processing is one of the main methods of prototype model production at present, mainly processing ABS, PC, PA, PMMA, POM and other materials into the physical samples we need.

Precision machined ABS is an excellent choice for parts with stringent quality requirements and tight tolerances. However, if you plan on machining during the ABS manufacturing process, it is best to use machine-grade ABS plastic.

Know your material

What is ABS?

ABS plastic is made from a mixture of three monomer components: acrylonitrile, butadiene, and styrene, as well as any other required additives. The ABS plastic raw material can then be melted and reshaped using injection molding, extrusion or 3D printing.

What can ABS do?

ABS is widely used in CNC processing, such as automobiles, electronic appliances, building materials and other fields. The automobile industry mainly uses some car body prototypes, or some decorations, steering wheels, bumpers, etc. In the home appliance industry, he is widely used in the production of prototypes such as televisions, washing machines, and refrigerators.

Why choose ABS?

Choose machined ABS plastic for prototypes and finished products to gain the following benefits:

· Good impact strength

· High toughness

· good chemical resistance

· good resistance

· Accept multiple colors

Excellent manufacturability due to good relative heat resistance without excessive melting temperature. Additionally, RUIYI can selectively improve some of these qualities by changing processing temperatures and using specific additives. Some chemical additives can even help increase UV resistance or make ABS transparent.
