Anpllocnc is a manufacturer and manufacturer of custom nylon parts providing nylon rapid CNC machining services, we have the latest production equipment, professional product design, the most efficient production technology, and engineering operations team to support our CNC nylon Plastic processing capabilities to ensure precision CNC machined nylon parts meet your requirements and achieve the highest quality while maintaining competitive prices. Anpllocnc provides CNC nylon turning, nylon milling, nylon drilling, nylon design, and engineering services. We support nylon materials of various specifications such as nylon 6 (PA 66), nylon 66 (PA 66).
Nylon is a versatile low-cost plastic, ideal for parts that require high compressive strength and friction resistance, while machining to very tight tolerances. It can be used in place of metal in some applications, allowing for longer-wearing parts that require lower maintenance than its metal counterpart. Nylon generally is stronger, withstands higher temperatures, and is more cost efficient than PTFE, PEEK, and UHMW.
Nylon, also known as polyamide, is often used as a substitute for low-strength metals like steel, copper, iron, etc in the CNC machining process to produce CNC machined nylon parts.
Nylon CNC machining is a method using machine tools to remove the excess materials from nylon stocks and execute certain machining processes depending on the computer programming, and then create the desired nylon components. Nylon machined parts play an essential role in the manufacturing of automobiles, electrical, chemical equipment, and so on, due to their high resistance to chemical and abrasion, and good rigidity and toughness. Besides, it is an ideal option for producing pump blades, gears, and bearings because of its excellent corrosion resistance, wear resistance, lightweight, and non-toxic. As its hardness can be strengthened by melt spinning, nylon is also widely applied to form a various array of knitwear and medical products.

Nylon refers to the group of plastics known as Polyamides. One of the most common engineering plastics in the world, it has outstanding bearing and wear properties.
Brand names include Nylatron®, Tecamid® and Nylacast®.
It is available as a homopolymer, copolymer or reinforced. It can also be pre-conditioned to reduce moisture absorption during its lifetime. Oil filled and glass filled grades are available.
Nylon can be difficult to machine due to the nature of the chips/swarf produced during the manufacturing process. We use high speed steel cutting tools over carbide as they have a sharper cutting edge. We also use the highest cutting speed and are aware of how clamping/fixturing can affect the part.
The two most common grades of Nylon are Nylon 6 and Nylon 66. The number relates to the number of methyl groups which are located on each side of the nitrogen atoms (amide groups), the difference in which subtly influences the properties of the nylon.
CNC machined nylon parts are typically applied for medical devices and electronics insulation. The most notable use case for nylon is screws and spacers for panel mounted circuit boards. Anpllocnc has delivered numerous components made from nylon for a wide variety of industries, part of nylon products we fabricated including:
Our extensive range of machined nylon services includes drilling, reaming, tapping, milling, and turning for both custom parts as well as production runs. We also specialize in creating intricate shapes and detailed geometries using our advanced computerized numerical control (CNC) machines. This allows us to provide quick turnaround times and deliver superior quality results every time.
