In order to understand the breadth of experience Jaco has in CNC plastic machining, it’s important to also understand what “CNC” means. CNC stands for computer numerical control,
and is a machining process in which a pre-programmed computer software feeds directions to tools and machinery to create products. Because CNC machining is so effective, it’s used in a range of industries and processes. CNC machines can control grinders, lathes, mills, and more.
Another benefit of CNC plastic machining is that it can allow three dimensional cutting tasks to be done in a single set of prompts. For that reason, it’s preferred for more complex parts. Manual machining requires that an operator be there to guide the machine(s) using levers and buttons. With CNC plastic machining, there is no longer the need for this extra person. This advanced method simply requires the right directions to feed to a machine, and it can complete tasks automatically.

Plastic surface painting is a common surface treatment method widely used for surface decoration and protection of materials.Spray painting not only provides a wide range of color options for plastic products, but also protects the plastic surface to a certain extent, preventing it from being physically damaged or chemically corroded. There are various types of paint used for spray painting. Each type of paint has its specific purpose and effect
Regular color paint,
Rubber paint
PU paint
UV paint
Metal shielding paint
In addition, in order to make the paint on the plastic surface more solid, it is usually necessary to first spray a layer of plastic primer to improve the adhesion of the paint surface and make the paint surface more solid. The application of primer can significantly enhance the durability and aesthetics of the final coating. Therefore, plastic surface painting is not only for aesthetics, but more importantly, to protect the plastic surface, extend its service life, and provide personalized decorative effects

The three most established plastic 3D printing processes today are the following:
used deposition modeling (FDM), also known as fused filament fabrication (FFF), is the most widely used form of 3D printing at the consumer level, fueled by the emergence of hobbyist 3D printers. This technique is well-suited for basic proof-of-concept models, as well as quick and low-cost prototyping of simple parts, such as parts that might typically be machined.
Consumer level FDM has the lowest resolution and accuracy when compared to other plastic 3D printing processes and is not the best option for printing complex designs or parts with intricate features. Higher-quality finishes may be obtained through chemical and mechanical polishing processes. Industrial FDM 3D printers use soluble supports to mitigate some of these issues and offer a wider range of engineering thermoplastics or even composites, but they also come at a steep price. As the melted filament forms each layer, sometimes voids can remain between layers when they don’t adhere fully. This results in anisotropic parts, which is important to consider when you are designing parts meant to bear load or resist pulling.
Fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printers melt and extrude thermoplastic filaments, which a printer nozzle deposits layer by layer in the build area.
Stereolithography (SLA) 3D printers use a laser to cure thermosetting liquid resins into hardened plastic in a process called photopolymerization.
Selective laser sintering (SLS) 3D printers use a high-powered laser to fuse small particles of thermoplastic powder.
Plastic Moldflow Analysis refers to the simulation and analysis of the flow channels, nozzles,injection process through moldflow analysis software ,in order to detemine the optimal injection molding parameters and optimize the mold structure,thereby improving the quality and production efficiency of injection molded parts.
Moldflow analysis can effectively evaluate the fluidity,filling ability, compressibility and other properties of plastic when injection. Moldflow can identify flowtime,bubble, warpage and other defects in advance and optimize the injection process parameters and mold design to ensure the stable molding quality of injection molding parts.

Injection moulding is a manufacturing process for producing parts by injecting molten material into a mould or mold. Injection moulding can be performed with a host of materials mainly including metals (for which the process is called die-casting), glasses, elastomers, confections, and most commonly thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers. Material for the part is fed into a heated barrel, mixed (using a helical screw), and injected into a mould cavity, where it cools and hardens to the configuration of the cavity, After a product is designed, usually by an industrial designer or an engineer, moulds are made by a mould-maker (or toolmaker) from metal, usually either steel or aluminium, and precision-machined to form the features of the desired part. Injection moulding is widely used for manufacturing a variety of parts, from the smallest components to entire body panels of cars. Advances in 3D printing technology, using photopolymers that do not melt during the injection moulding of some lower-temperature thermoplastics, can be used for some simple injection moulds.
