Engineering Plastics- Used in Mass Production
Engineered plastics are crafted with a focus on strength, toughness, and durability. Ideal for extended use in structural applications, these materials excel across a broad temperature spectrum, endure mechanical stress, and thrive in challenging chemical and physical environments. Plastic can often replace the use of metals and ceramics in many industries as a reliable, adaptable and cheaper solution for projects and moulds. For engineering plastics Halesowen, Jade Metals can help you find the type you need.
Our product range includes: Natural Acetal, Natural Nylon, Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK), Tufnol,
Processing Methods
At Jade Metals we have a range of engineering plastics Halesowen, that are suitable for engineering industries and effectively replace the need for metals. Here are some of the processes of using our engineering plastics.
Applied in large-scale production, injection moulding is a technique employed for the production of finished products that are ready for use. The process involves melting plastic with an extruder, plasticising it, and then injecting it under pressure into an injection moulding tool. This tool, equipped with diverse cavities and shapes, dictates the final form and surface texture of the produced component.
Extrusion is a controlled process that utilizes temperature and pressure. In this method, the material undergoes heating within an extrusion barrel, progressing through zones of escalating heat, and is subsequently propelled through a uniquely designed die under pressure. The outcome is frequently a semi-finished mould, which can be subsequently refined to meet precise specifications. This refinement may involve producing stock bars, tubes, or plates in various dimensions and colours.
Compounding is a procedure in which the plastic's raw material is fused with fillers or additives. The resulting mixture is then extruded into slender strands and subsequently sliced into granulated form. This technique enables the customisation of the particular plastic to meet specific specifications or design criteria, such as improving frictional capabilities or augmenting electrical conductivity.
Machining stands out as the predominant, swiftest, and most economical approach to achieving a finalised product. This method is particularly adept at crafting precision-engineered components from engineering and high-temperature plastics. Utilising CNC milling machines, lathes, and saws equipped with specialized tools, machining plays a pivotal role in shaping and designing the desired product form. It serves as the crucial shaping stage following the creation of the stock shape or injection-moulded part.
