Plastic Surface Finishes Parts Photos
Acrylic as machined
Component requires superior surface finish for device success. Critical profile eliminates secondary polishing operation as option.
Special designed tooling allows 10 - 16 micro inch finish as machined. Burnish tool cleans part and adds high gloss.
Acrylic as CNC machined
Customer needs optical finish with low distortion for bubble & liquid visualization
Cast acrylic has the highest light transmittance. Finish as machined with no secondary polishing.
Direct machine acrylic polishing
Acrylic lens as machined. Customer requires no scratches for viewing through the long end of the part.
Acrylic Plastic Component
Machined Plastic Medical Component
Electrophoresis Comb requires no burrs on well sites
Good machining practice combined with bead blast finish leaves consistent tooth profile
Machined Polycarbonate Fitting
Medical device needs near sharp edge (.002-.006) for minimal dead space in blood flow path. No nicks or scratches
Difficult application as processing through vapor polish can scrap part. Special handling procedures meets the customers quality requirements.

Examples of Vapor Polishing of Polycarbonate
Polycarbonate Components, after vapor polishing to achieve optical quality finish.
20 Ra finish in Polypropylene
High visiblity light pipe in a instrument needs high gloss/polish finish
On machine plastic polishing consistently brings finish to 20 rms with no tooling marks or feed lines.
Vapor Polishing, Ultem Machined Component
Customer needs best possible roller surface for tape drive. Ultem is selected for its low inertia with vapor polishing to reach under 20 rms surface finish
