CNC Machining in POM (Delrin/Acetal)

CNC POM machining is ideal for fabricating plastic components with incredible performance, repeatability, and precision.

What is POM Plastic?

The Definition of POM Plastic

POM (Polyoxymethylene), also known as Delrin and Acetalis, is an engineering thermoplastic featured for its high strength and excellent machinability. It has good chemical and abrasion resistance, and great mechanical properties, as well as exceptional dimensional stability when compared with other general plastics. The combination of wonderful properties contributes to creating high-quality and high-accuracy mechanical components in CNC machining in Delrin. POM materials play an important role in the manufacturing of precision parts for various applications of use. CNC POM machined parts are often found in consumer electronics like printers and televisions, connector components like nuts and screws, mechanical gears, and guiding elements.

Runsom offers Delrin machining services for global customers for more than ten years and has adequate experience in POM milling, drilling, and turning. Abundance material grades of Acetal are at our disposal including medical grade POM, food-grade POM, glass-reinforced Acetal, PTFE-filled Acetal, and FDA-compliant Acetal.

POM FAQs

POM is a practical material in CNC machining. Machinists who have come into contact with plastic usually like it because it owns good machinability. Compared with ABS, it has greater strength and dimensional stability. It is a higher quality material as well, but it is also more expensive.

POM is an engineering thermoplastic used for precision parts in the CNC machining process that require high strength, low friction, and exceptional dimensional stability.

Laser cutting or engraving Delrin is feasible and practical as this kind of plastic can be easily removed by the laser beam.

Nylon is a strong and durable plastic that can be used for many purposes, but it is not as strong as Delrin.
