Machining of plastics
Short lead times and large flexibility
What this solution offers
Machining of plastic components is made by processing plastic components such as poles, blocks or plates. The process does not require any moulds and is thus suited for very small batch sizes.
SP Group's Machining services offers many possibilities and can often provide the right solution for components in low or medium volume.
Our services range traditional milling and turning operations to bending, welding and laser cutting.
Key Benefits
- Milling & Turning: components in small batches, delivered from day-to-day
- Laser Cutting: Transparent sheets cut into shape, leaving clean edges, with polished, smooth finish.
- Bending: Great alternative to gluing for simple parts, with a minimum of cost for production.
- Welding: the process is often used to create large special designed parts in small production series or large prototypes before serial production.

How does it work?
Machining Processes:
Starts with a plastic sheet, block, or rod.
Can be done manually or using CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines.
Bending:
Forms flat plastic sheets into curves and angles.
Achieved using heat and force, with options for either cold or hot bending.
Laser Cutting:
Non-contact process using a concentrated laser beam.
Used to melt, burn, or vaporize materials for cutting or engraving.
