CNC Machining POM

What is POM material and CNC machined POM parts?

POM material is an abbreviation for polyformaldehyde, also known as polyoxymethylene or polyethylene glycol methyl ether formaldehyde. It is a high performance engineering plastic with excellent physical properties, chemical resistance, low coefficient of friction, high rigidity and strength.

CNC machining of POM parts is a common manufacturing method, where CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control. This machining method uses CNC machine tools and POM material to manufacture a variety of parts and products. CNC machining allows the POM material to be chipped from a large block by rotating the tool at high speed and formed into the desired shape and size according to predetermined design specifications.

CNC machining characteristics of POM?

POM material has good mechanical properties, thermal stability and chemical stability, so it shows many excellent characteristics in CNC machining. The following are the main characteristics of POM CNC machining.

Good cutting properties: POM material has high hardness, but its strength and toughness are good, so it is suitable for various machining such as turning, milling and drilling. In CNC machining, POM material can be cut with tools such as HSS, carbide and polycrystalline diamond, and the cutting speed and feed rate can be increased appropriately to improve machining efficiency.

Low friction coefficient: POM material has low friction coefficient and good self-lubrication, so it can reduce the cutting force and surface heat generation in CNC machining and avoid damage, burr and burr on the cutting surface, thus improving the surface quality and machining accuracy of the parts.

Excellent dimensional stability: POM material has good dimensional stability, not easy to deformation and shrinkage, so you can get high precision parts size and shape. Meanwhile, POM material has low coefficient of thermal expansion and is not easily affected by heat, so it is suitable for precision machining.

Easy processing and molding: POM material can be processed by various molding methods such as injection molding and extrusion molding, so it has good molding performance and processing performance, and can manufacture various shapes of parts and components.

What are the common problems and solutions of POM material turning and milling?

Some common problems that may occur in turning and milling of POM material are as follows.

Generate burrs and burrs: This is usually due to too fast cutting speed or the tool is not sharp. The solution is to reduce the cutting speed, replace the sharp tool, or use a higher level of cutting fluid.

Part distortion: POM material may be affected by thermal expansion and contraction during machining, resulting in part distortion. The solution is to reduce the temperature during machining, use suitable fixtures, or use heating and cooling methods to control the temperature.

Rupture and fracture: This may be caused by excessive stress on the material or by an unsuitable tool. The solution is to use a suitable tool, adopt suitable cutting parameters, or increase the number of edges of the tool to reduce cutting pressure.

Surface burn: This is usually caused by excessive cutting speed or inadequate cutting fluid. The solution is to reduce the cutting speed, increase the amount of cutting fluid or change to a higher grade of cutting fluid.

Excessive cutting force: This may be caused by improper setting of cutting parameters or unsuitable tool. The solution is to optimize the cutting parameters, replace the appropriate tool, strengthen the cutting fluid cooling and lubrication, etc.

In a word, when turning and milling POM materials, the above problems should be noted and corresponding solutions should be taken to obtain better processing results and higher production efficiency.
