Polyimide machining

In addition to the production of stock shapes and direct formed parts, polyimide materials are easy to machine. Complex components with tight tolerances can be produced on standard milling machines and lathes. Special plastic milling cutters should be used for optimum results. Polyimide materials from Ensinger (TECASINT) can be machined dry or with coolant if required. As machining is very similar to aluminium, the same carbide cutting tools can be used to machine TECASINT.

We machine finished polyimide components from the following Ensinger shapes:

• Specialists in the machining of TECASINT
• Manufacture according to customer drawing
• Tight tolerances ±0.01 mm achievable
• Small batch production and prototypes
• Quotations based on most efficient methods of production
• Short lead-times
• Parts fully inspected in accordance with customer requirements
• Batch traceability
• Plate dimension up to 300 x 1000 mm
• Cylinders up to Ø 211 mm
• Tubes up to Ø 289/212 mm
