POM plastic, also known as polyoxymethylene or acetal, possesses a density of approximately 1.42 g/cm³. Its relatively low weight makes it suitable for applications where lightweight components are crucial.
With a tensile strength of around 63 MPa and a flexural modulus of approximately 2,700 MPa, POM exhibits excellent mechanical properties. This makes it resilient under various loads, contributing to its effectiveness in engineering applications.
One of the standout features of POM is its inherent low friction coefficient, which is around 0.2. Additionally, it demonstrates excellent wear resistance, making it suitable for components subjected to repetitive motion and contact.
POM plastic exhibits stability over a wide temperature range. Its melting point is approximately 175°C, and it retains its mechanical properties at elevated temperatures, allowing for applications in diverse environments.
POM is resistant to a variety of chemicals, including fuels, solvents, and oils. This chemical resistance makes it a preferred choice for components that may come into contact with different substances during their lifespan.
POM maintains precise dimensions even under varying temperature and humidity conditions, ensuring the longevity and reliability of custom CNC-milled parts.
The material exhibits low moisture absorption, reducing the impact of environmental factors on its properties. This feature is particularly beneficial in applications requiring consistent performance.
POM is highly machinable, allowing for intricate designs and precision during the CNC milling process. Its machinability contributes to the production of complex custom parts.
POM may undergo UV degradation over extended exposure to sunlight. Consideration should be given to applications where prolonged outdoor exposure is a factor.
While available in standard colors such as white, black, and natural, POM has limitations in terms of vibrant color options compared to some other plastics.
Despite its excellent mechanical properties, POM may not be the ideal choice for high-load bearing applications where other materials like metals might be more appropriate.
Several materials can serve as alternatives to POM based on specific application requirements. Common alternatives include nylon (PA), polyethylene (PE), and polyurethane (PU). The selection depends on factors such as mechanical demands, chemical exposure, and environmental conditions.
Precision is paramount in the automotive sector, and custom CNC-milled Plastic POM parts find a niche in steering components. From gear guides to bushings, the durability and low-friction properties of Plastic POM contribute to the reliable performance of steering systems.
In electronic devices where insulation is crucial, Plastic POM parts shine. Custom-milled insulating components, such as electrical connectors and housing, benefit from the material's dielectric strength and resistance to moisture, ensuring optimal functionality.
Within consumer goods, Plastic POM gears play a pivotal role in appliances like printers and copiers. The material's wear resistance and dimensional stability make it an ideal choice for gears, ensuring smooth and reliable operation over extended usage.
Aerospace demands components that can withstand extreme conditions. Custom CNC-milled Plastic POM parts contribute to the production of lightweight structural components, offering a balance between strength and weight in aerospace applications.
In the medical field, precision is non-negotiable. Plastic POM's biocompatibility and resistance to sterilization processes make it suitable for crafting surgical instrument components, ensuring the highest standards of safety and reliability.
