  • Machined ABS part on CNC

    ABS

    Strength, Economical, Processability

    ABS (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene Copolymer) is a well-balanced engineering plastic with good mechanical properties, excellent impact resistance, and easy processability. These characteristics have led to its widespread application in fields such as consumer electronics, household appliances, automotive industry, and daily necessities.

  • Low carbon steel CNC machining metal material — durable, high-precision metal for CNC machined components and industrial applications.

    Low Carbon Steel

    Economical, Machinability

    Low carbon steel (with carbon content not exceeding 0.25%) is one of the most commonly used types of steel in both industry and daily life, thanks to its excellent plasticity, weldability, and low cost. It is widely applied in components such as pistons, screws, and drive shafts. However, due to its limited strength, it usually requires post-treatment.
