Product Description
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) engraving is a highly effective and precise method for creating intricate designs and patterns on acrylic surfaces. This fabrication technique leverages the capabilities of CNC machines to precisely cut, etch, or engrave detailed features onto acrylic workpieces.
Key Advantages of Acrylic/Polycarbonate CNC Engraving:
Precision and Repeatability:
CNC machines are programmed using computer-aided design (CAD) software, allowing for the creation of highly accurate and consistent engravings.
The automated nature of CNC engraving ensures that each engraved piece matches the desired design specifications.
Design Flexibility:
CNC engraving enables the creation of complex and intricate designs that would be challenging or even impossible to achieve using manual or traditional engraving methods.
Designers and manufacturers have the freedom to incorporate a wide range of design elements, such as text, logos, illustrations, and geometric patterns, into the acrylic workpieces.
Engraving: The CNC machine precisely follows the programmed instructions, using specialized cutting tools or engraving bits to remove material from the acrylic surface, creating the desired design.
Finishing: Depending on the application, the engraved acrylic piece may undergo additional finishing steps, such as polishing, cleaning, or the application of protective coatings.

Product application
Advertising panels and signage production: Acrylic advertising panels and signs have the advantages of high transparency, bright colors, and good processability, and are widely used in indoor and outdoor advertising, corporate image display, and other fields.
Home decoration product manufacturing: Acrylic materials can be made into decorative items with unique shapes, such as lighting fixtures, vases, photo frames, etc., which are creative and enhance the aesthetics of the home.
Handicraft production: Acrylic materials are easy to engrave and shape, and can be used to make various exquisite crafts, such as trophies, medals, souvenirs, etc.
Display product manufacturing: Acrylic materials have high transparency and stable structure, suitable for making various display products, such as display cabinets, racks, and display stands.
Medical device manufacturing: Acrylic has biocompatibility and disinfection properties, and can be used to make disposable medical devices and nursing equipment.
Machining Parameters:
Use carbide-tipped tools designed for plastics. Avoid high-speed steel tools.
Spindle speeds around 10,000-20,000 RPM work well for polycarbonate.
Feed rates of 300-600 mm/min are typical.
Use low depth of cut, around 0.1-0.5 mm, to avoid chipping or cracking.
Apply a coolant or lubricant to keep the material from overheating.
Acrylic/Polycarbonate can be engraved using a variety of techniques like raster engraving, vector engraving, or partial depth engraving.
Raster engraving works well for photorealistic images and text. Vector engraving is good for crisp geometric designs.
Partial depth engraving allows creating 3D effects by varying the
engraving depth.
Climb milling is preferred over conventional milling to minimize chipping.
COMMON PROCESSING
Drilling: Holes and openings can be created in PC boards using drilling techniques.
Bending and Forming: PC boards can be bent and formed into desired shapes using heat.
Thermoforming: Thermoforming is a process where a heated PC sheet is placed over a mold and then vacuum or pressure is applied to shape the material to match the mold contours.
CNC Milling: CNC milling machines equipped with appropriate cutting tools can be used to mill PC boards
Bonding and Joining: PC boards can be bonded or joined together using various methods
Surface Finishing: PC boards can be finished to enhance their appearance or provide specific functionalities.
