Precision CNC Machining for ABS – High‑Impact Custom Plastic Parts
ABS CNC machining is widely used for producing durable, impact‑resistant plastic components. ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) offers an excellent balance of strength, toughness, and machinability, making it a top choice for enclosures, housings, prototypes, and functional parts. At Ranglink, we specialize in custom ABS machining – from simple brackets to complex electronic enclosures.
– High impact resistance and toughness.
– Good stiffness and dimensional stability.
– Excellent machinability (no melting, easy to cut, drill, tap).
– Lightweight (density ~1.04 g/cm³).
– Wide temperature range (–20°C to 80°C continuous).
– Can be glued, painted, and finished easily.
Key Properties of ABS Plastic
| Property | Value / Rating |
|---|---|
| Tensile strength | ~40 MPa |
| Flexural modulus | ~2.0 GPa |
| Izod impact strength (notched) | ~200 J/m (very high) |
| Heat deflection temperature (1.82 MPa) | ~95°C |
| Continuous use temperature | –20°C to 80°C |
| Density | 1.04 g/cm³ |
| Water absorption (24h) | 0.2% – low |
| Machinability rating | Excellent (similar to brass; use sharp carbide tools) |

Surface Treatment & Post‑Processing for ABS
Note: ABS absorbs moisture over time. For outdoor applications, apply UV‑resistant paint or coating to prevent yellowing and degradation.
