Fabrication Guidelines for POM<\/h3>\n

Sensibilidad al agarre:<\/strong>
\nWhile stiffer than most plastics, POM can still deform. We use collets or soft jaws with controlled pressure. For flat parts, vacuum workholding is ideal to maintain flatness.<\/p>\n

Uso de refrigerante:<\/strong>
\nPOM machines very freely, but coolant is recommended to flush chips and keep the part cool to maintain tight tolerances. Air blast is also effective for simple cuts.<\/p>\n

Herramientas:<\/strong>
\nStandard sharp HSS or Carbide tools work best. High rake angles help slice the material cleanly. Dull tools will cause heat buildup, which can lead to POM outgassing (smelling like formaldehyde).<\/p>\n

Estabilidad dimensional:<\/strong>
\nPOM-C (Copolymer) is preferred for parts where centerline porosity (common in thick Delrin sections) could be an issue, such as parts requiring sealing or aesthetic perfection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Principales industrias de aplicaci\u00f3n<\/h3>\n

Automoci\u00f3n<\/strong>
\nPiezas clave:<\/em> Fuel system components, window lift gears, door lock actuators.
\nWhy POM:<\/em> Resistance to fuels\/solvents and excellent fatigue endurance for moving parts.<\/p>\n

Electr\u00f3nica de consumo<\/strong>
\nPiezas clave:<\/em> Zippers, clips, mechanical keyboard switches, rollers.
\nWhy POM:<\/em> Low friction (“slipperiness”) and high stiffness provide a premium tactile feel and durability.<\/p>\n

Maquinaria industrial<\/strong>
\nPiezas clave:<\/em> Conveyor links, bearings, wear strips, guide rails.
\nWhy POM:<\/em> Self-lubricating properties reduce the need for external grease and maintenance.<\/p>\n

Dispositivos m\u00e9dicos<\/strong>
\nPiezas clave:<\/em> Inhaler components, insulin pens, surgical instrument handles.
\nWhy POM:<\/em> Easy to sterilize (some grades), dimensionally stable, and resistant to cleaning agents.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
