The precision mechanics sector is distinguished by its dynamic and
constantly evolving nature,
thanks to the combination of advanced technologies and the high expertise of
specialized technicians. These
professionals manage the entire production process, from receiving the
project to creating the technical
drawing, up to the refinement of the final
component.
A fundamental role is played by mechanical small parts, which
are a key element in modern industry.
Mastery of design and drawing software, as well as in-depth knowledge of
materials, including plastics, are
essential to meet the sector’s demands for precision and versatility. The use of
plastic, in fact, offers a wide
range of opportunities and advantages for creating innovative components.
Sectors of Application for Plastic Components
Plastic components are particularly suitable in fields where an optimal balance
between strength and
weight is required. This makes plastic ideal for sectors such as
chemical,
packaging, food, and
automotive, although its applications extend
to many other areas.
Thanks to turning and the use of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines, it
is possible to produce plastic
components in various shapes and sizes with an extremely high level of
precision. These machines allow the creation
of even extremely complex parts, meeting the most demanding requirements.
Techniques and Tools for Plastic Processing
The processing of plastic materials follows procedures similar to those for
metals but presents differences due to
the specific characteristics of plastics. The choice between plastic and metal
is never obvious and requires the
assistance of expert technicians. For example, for components subjected to high
stress or intended for prolonged
work cycles, metal is more suitable. However, plastic materials, despite wearing
out more quickly, offer
advantages such as flexibility and lower costs.
Not all machining processes applicable to metals are suitable for plastic.
However, the introduction of
technologically advanced polymers has expanded the possibilities, allowing
intensive production cycles even with
plastic materials.
A crucial aspect of the entire process is the integration of the component into
the context for which it was
designed. Product optimization is continuously refined through analysis
and collaboration among
technicians, ensuring that each part meets functional requirements.
This process involves all stages,
from design and geometry evaluation to assembly and application, ensuring that
every component operates as
efficiently as possible.
