Plastic machine shop · Aurora, Illinois

Plastic machining services for custom and replacement parts.

CDS Plastics provides CNC milling and turning of engineered plastics, aluminum, brass and bronze. Talk with us about a single replacement, a machined plastic prototype or recurring production.

A drawing, specification, sketch, CAD information or physical sample can begin the discussion. You do not need to choose a machining process before contacting us.

Machining and replacement work

Three services for the part you need.

The component's shape and the information available help determine how the work begins.

CNC milling

Faces, pockets, slots and contours

Custom plastic milling for parts with flat faces, recesses, hole patterns and other features. The drawing, material and feature access determine whether the part fits the milling setup.

CNC turning

Round parts and milled features

Turned plastic parts with diameters, bores, shoulders and grooves. CDS also has a twin-spindle, fully live-tooled setup for round parts with milled operations in one cycle, subject to the actual drawing and equipment fit.

Reverse engineering

Replacement parts without a reliable drawing

A worn, damaged or obsolete plastic part can start a replacement project. Dimensional capture and available part records help document the existing component for manufacture.

A plastics-focused machine shop

Machining starts with the material and the drawing.

Precision plastic machining depends on more than the dimensions alone. Your specified grade, stock condition, dimensions and tolerances establish the machining requirement.

CDS handles replacement, prototype and recurring production projects, with material, quantity and timing confirmed for each job. See the facility and machining equipment for supplier evaluation, or compare engineered-plastic materials for your operating conditions.

Tell us about your part.

Share the drawing, specification, sketch or sample information you have. Identify the part number, revision, specified grade, quantity and required date. Note any dimensions or material details that are missing.

For a worn or undocumented part, identify damaged features and the available original records. Contact CDS before arranging a sample handoff.
