Machining Delrin Enclosure on Abdi Automation DGM3-1

[@BigBenAdv]

Thanks for sharing.. It was very therapeutic and mesmerising to watch despite not being a machinist. Seems to me like the machining path is well optimized for a (seemingly) constant material removal rate or loading on the cutting bit that gives a very nice finish even on the roughing material removal stage.

Excellent chipload, really pushing that spindle!

[@pr00009]

its plastic. that would hardly put a dent if any. if anything, it would hurt the plastic tolerances xD

[@skaelring-xj3gq]

You must be joking.

[@botabbueu51]

I love how the chips is thrown out in a perfect angle.

I can smell the formaldehyde from here!

Thanks for sharing It could have been much more better if you had mentioned the machining parameters 👍

[@Hanal503]

Hard to say...cuz they are being so much different during roughing.

Good job!!

[@davidpupu]

including speed and feed and depth and rpm will be more informative

nice work

f8000 s8000 / xy step over 0.5 / z step down max phải vậy không

[@pr00009]

given its plastic, id say that sounds right

[@martysexton724]

what is that tool you are using. and Dia. size.

we got the same prob

👍

[@hedeisgone]

mc nylon?

[@flaviomarcuzzi3496]

Molto bello da vedere, io però avrei evitato di fare la spianatura iniziale visto che rimane una superficie minima lavorabile alla fine con minor tempo!

[@LukeAquilina]

That’s what you would think at first. But if you’re trying to hit high tolerance and good surface finish on this material you have to do surfacing when more material is present to increase rigidity.

[@albelab3d]

Purtroppo nonostante sia perfettamente sensato come ragionamento quel che dici tu, anche io quando mi trovo a lavorare materiali come delrin o comunque materie plastiche cerco di spianare subito finchè è un pezzo intero altrimenti le pareti sottili se le ripassi sopra per spianarle rischi che si crepino o saltino via alcuni pezzi, rovinando il pezzo

[@flaviomarcuzzi3496]

@@albelab3d giusto anche il tuo ragionamento, pareti sottili e materiale fragile si rischia scheggiatura, fosse stato polietilene o nylon si sarebbe potuto fare.

[@albelab3d]

@@flaviomarcuzzi3496 esatto.. con nylon, polizene o altre materie plastiche faccio cosi, ma con pvc delrin o simili evito perchè rovino il pezzo all’ultimo

[@danjones5655]

That clean up must suck

[@icarus_ap]

it is not that bad, I found plastic easy to clean up compared to other material, just use a shop vac and suck it all up

[@danielkouble7344]

material?

[@codytaylor7397]

says it title. delrin
