Milling
Polycarbonate sheet milling is a routing process that uses a milling cutter to remove polycarbonate or acrylic from the surface of a product. Compared to drilling, where the tool is much more advanced along its rotation axis, the cutter in milling is usually moved perpendicular to its axis, so that cutting occurs on the circumference of the cutter.
Milling is very popular in plastic machining, especially when the tooling cost is high, for small quantities. There are many plastic parts that can be made by milling. Polycarbonate milling and acrylic milling are normally combined together with other processing, such as CNC routing, vapor polishing, and etc.
Applications
- Polycarbonate parts
