🧪 Materials for Automotive Machined Plastics
Commodity, engineering, and high-performance plastics (including filled, antistatic, conductive, and flame-retardant grades).
We help you select materials based on thermal environment (e.g., 80-150°C under-hood), exposure to fuels/oils/glycols, dimensional stability, electrical insulation, tribology, and cost.

Protective Packaging
Packaging to protect sensitive surfaces, edges, and optics; ESD options for electronics-related parts.
DFM Tips for Automotive Plastics
Internal corners: add fillets. Avoid very thin walls. Prefer coarse threads or heat-set inserts. Account for thermal/moisture effects. Consider annealing for tight tolerances.
🎯 Design-for-Manufacturing Tips
- •Internal corners: Add fillets to reduce stress and match tool sizes.
- •Wall thickness: Avoid very thin walls; consider filled grades for stiffness.
- •Threads: Prefer coarse threads for plastics or use heat-set brass inserts.
- •Fits: Account for thermal/moisture effects; specify operating conditions.
- •Wear faces: Request target Ra and consider POM, PTFE blends, or filled grades.
- •Stability: Consider annealing for POM, PEEK, and other semi-crystalline parts.
- •Moisture: Pre-dry hygroscopic polymers (PA, PET, PBT) and design for conditioning.
