Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overheating during machining, leading to melting and poor cut quality.Employ adequate cooling (e.g., coolant spray, air blast) and adjust feed rates and spindle speed to manage heat buildup.
Using dull tooling, resulting in ragged edges and increased stress on the material.Ensure all cutting and drilling tools are sharp and properly maintained for clean, precise operations.

Common Applications

  • Wear plates and strips
  • Bushings and bearings
  • Gears and sprockets
  • Tooling and jigs
  • Protective guards and bumpers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Nylon can absorb moisture, which may affect dimensional stability. Store in a dry environment.
  • Avoid excessive heat during machining, as it can cause melting and degradation of material properties.
