CNC (Computer Numerical Control) engraving is a highly effective and precise method for creating intricate designs and patterns on Acrylic/Polycarbonate surfaces. This fabrication technique leverages the capabilities of CNC machines to precisely cut, etch, or engrave detailed features onto acrylic workpieces.

Processing : Engraving, Folding Bending, Punching, 3D Sculpture, etc.
Material: 100% Virgin PMMA/PC/PVC
Product Description
Acrylic Precision Machining typically refers to the process of using CNC (Computer Numerical Control) Machining as the core method, combined with a series of post-processing techniques, to cut, shape, and finish acrylic sheets or blanks with high accuracy and quality. The goal is not merely to alter the material's shape, but to endow it with superior functionality, stunning visual appeal, and precise dimensional fit.
Unlike basic cutting, the core value of "Precision Machining" lies in the word "precision," emphasizing:
High Accuracy: Dimensional tolerances can reach ±0.05mm or even tighter, ensuring perfect part-to-part assembly.
High Quality: Machined surfaces are smooth, free of chips and scratches, with edges that can be made crystal clear.
Complex Forming: Capable of producing complex 2D, 3D, and irregular shapes that are difficult to achieve with traditional methods.
In summary, acrylic precision machining is that combines modern CNC technology, materials science, and artisan expertise. It transforms an ordinary plastic sheet into functional artworks that serve high-tech industries, premium brands, and everyday life, making it an indispensable manufacturing method for realizing innovative designs.

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.
