In the previous parts, we discussed some of the commonly used materials in CNC machining from the metals to the plastics. While these materials are all extremely useful and versatile, there are still plenty more that can be done. In this third part, we will continue examining additional material used in CNC machining, particularly the composites and ceramics.
Fiberglass: a popular composite material due to its offering of strength, durability, andl resistance to the elements. Fiberglass is most commonly found in lightweight and robust components in the construction, marine, and automotive industries.
Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP): a composite material known for its incredible strength to weight ratio and resistance to fatigue. It is mostly found in high performance use such as in aerospace and sports equipment. The CNC machining of CFRP typically requires more specialized tools and techniques due to CFRP’s abrasive nature in order to achieve precise results.
