CNC machining in POM (Delrin/Acetal)
POM (Delrin/Acetal) is a synthetic thermoplastic that offers high strength and stiffness, while also being resistant to wear and abrasion. It is an ideal material for use in CNC machining applications.
CNC Machining POM (Delrin/Acetal) Materials

POM (Delrin/Acetal) is a semi-crystalline engineering thermoplastic used in precision parts requiring high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability. It is ideal for machining intricate shapes and detailed features. CNC machining POM material is a process of removing material from the workpiece using computer-controlled cutting tools.
The advantage of CNC machining POM over traditional machining methods is that it can produce complex shapes with tight tolerances and superior surface finish.
