Polycarbonate Machining Properties

Polycarbonate is a relatively expensive plastic, so selecting the right cutting tools for CNC machining is crucial. Tool choice and cutting speeds must suit the material’s properties to prevent melting and adhesion of PC to the tool. Additionally, clamping pressure and machine speed should be carefully adjusted, as excessive or insufficient pressure can cause part deformation.

Surface Finishing Options for CNC Machined Parts

To improve the appearance and performance of your CNC machined PC components, we offer a variety of surface finishing services. Whether you need a clean matte surface, enhanced aesthetics, or clear part labeling, our finishing options ensure your polycarbonate parts meet both functional and visual requirements.

Standard finish with visible tool marks; suitable for functional prototypes and internal components.

Uses abrasive media to create a uniform matte or satin finish; also improves coating adhesion on plastic or metal surfaces.

Adds logos, text, or identification marks via silk screen or pad printing, ideal for branding or part tracking.

Removes machining marks and evens out surface texture; ideal for prototypes and parts where appearance is not critical.

Painting and powder coating provide colorful, durable, and corrosion-resistant finishes.

Deposits metal layers such as nickel or chrome on parts, improving wear resistance, conductivity, and aesthetic quality.

Produces a smooth, glossy finish; commonly applied to plastics like PC or PMMA for enhanced clarity and premium look.

Chemical treatment for ferrous metals, creating a dark, corrosion-resistant surface with minimal thickness.

Electrochemical process for aluminum that enhances corrosion and wear resistance, with options for colored finishes.

The CNC pc parts price depends on the part’s structure, order volume, and machining process. You can leave a message on our website.

PC can handle temperatures up to ~135°C. It’s more heat-resistant than ABS but less than materials like PEEK.

PC is tougher and more impact-resistant. Acrylic offers better scratch resistance and optical clarity but is more brittle.

Yes, CNC machined PC can be polished to near-optical clarity with the right finishing processes.

PC CNC machining is faster and more flexible for low volumes or complex geometries. PC molding is better for mass production.
