Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as Delrin or acetal, is an engineering thermoplastic known for its high strength, excellent machinability and chemical resistance. POM Machined Parts are widely used in engineering applications due to their metal-like hardness, strength and rigidity, so they are known as "metal in plastic".
Applications of POM Machined Parts:
Electronic and electronic fields: POM Machined Parts are widely used in the manufacture of electronic connectors, switches, relays, coil skeletons, potentiometers, etc. in the electronic and electrical fields due to their good insulation and mechanical properties. In addition, POM is also used to manufacture battery diaphragms, capacitor diaphragms, etc.
Mechanical field: Due to its excellent wear resistance, fatigue resistance and self-lubrication, POM is used in the mechanical field to manufacture wear-resistant parts such as gears, bearings, chains, sliders, guide rails, etc. POM can also be used to manufacture seals, gaskets, etc.
Automotive field: POM Machined Parts are widely used in the automotive field to manufacture radiator grilles, fuel system parts, ignition system parts, engine parts, etc. due to its weather resistance and chemical corrosion resistance. POM is also used to manufacture automotive interior and exterior parts.
Chemical field: Due to its chemical corrosion resistance and wear resistance, POM is used in the chemical field to manufacture valves, seals, pipes, reaction vessels, etc. POM can also be used to manufacture corrosion-resistant centrifuge impellers, compressor pistons, etc.
Light industry field: POM Machined Parts are used in the light industry to manufacture stationery, toys, tableware, toothbrushes, etc. due to its good processing performance and aesthetics. POM can also be used to manufacture eyeglass frames, watch straps, etc.
Medical device field: POM is used to manufacture artificial joints, medical device parts, etc. because it meets the strict quality standards of FDA or ISO.
POM Machined Parts has become one of the indispensable materials in modern industry due to its excellent performance and wide application fields. From automotive parts to medical devices, the application of POM covers almost all fields that require high-performance plastics. With the continuous advancement of technology, the application scope of POM materials is expected to be further expanded.
