Crystal Clear: PMMA CNC Service at Istar Machining

What is PMMA CNC Machining?

PMMA (also called acrylic) is a clear plastic that we can shape with our CNC machines. At Istar Machining, we turn this amazing material into parts that look like glass but are lighter and stronger. Our CNC machining service uses computer-controlled tools to cut and shape PMMA with perfect accuracy.

Why Choose PMMA for Your Parts?

PMMA has many great features that make it perfect for many uses:

• Crystal clear – lets through 92% of light
• Strong – harder to break than glass
• Light weight – weighs less than glass
• Weather-proof – stands up to sun and rain
• Easy to work with – we can make complex shapes
