Custom engineering plastic components by injection moulding, CNC machining and fabrication — Nylon, Polycarbonate, ABS, PTFE, POM and more. Precise, durable, cost-effective solutions for every industry.
Industrial plastics — correctly specified engineering thermoplastics and high-performance polymers — are transforming how modern industries design and manufacture components. They offer a compelling combination of properties that metals simply cannot match in many applications: corrosion and chemical resistance without any surface treatment, self-lubricating characteristics, electrical insulation, thermal stability, weight savings of 30–80% over equivalent steel parts, and outstanding wear resistance under continuous load.
At Audhe Industries, we manufacture custom industrial plastic components from our facility in Coimbatore using three complementary processes — plastic injection moulding, CNC plastic machining, and plastic fabrication. This gives us the flexibility to serve any order size, from a single machined prototype to millions of moulded parts. Our material expertise covers more than 15 engineering and high-performance thermoplastics, and our team helps clients identify the right polymer for every application.
Whether you need a Nylon gear to replace a worn metal one, a PTFE valve seat for a chemical application, a Polycarbonate enclosure for an electrical panel, or a custom-machined Acetal bush — we design, manufacture and deliver it precisely to your specification.
High-volume, complex-geometry plastic parts with tight tolerances and consistent quality
Precision turning, milling and drilling of engineering plastic rod, sheet and tube stock
Nylon, PC, ABS, PP, PTFE, POM, UHMWPE, PEEK and other high-performance thermoplastics
Our engineers advise on the optimal polymer for temperature, chemical, load and wear requirements
We deploy the right process for your part geometry, quantity and cost target. Our team guides you to the most efficient and economical method — or a combination of processes for complex assemblies.
Molten thermoplastic is injected at high pressure into a hardened steel mould cavity, producing parts of complex 3D geometry with excellent dimensional consistency at high volume. Ideal where the same part is needed in quantities from hundreds to millions — the per-part cost drops dramatically with volume as tooling cost is amortised.
Our injection moulding capability covers all standard and engineering thermoplastics. Mould tools for injection moulding are made by our own in-house tool room — shorter lead times, no vendor handoffs, complete traceability.
Engineering plastic rod, tube and sheet stock is precision-machined on CNC lathes, milling centres and drilling machines to produce exact profiles, bores and thread forms. No tooling cost makes CNC machining the preferred route for prototypes, small batches (1–500 pieces) and parts requiring very tight tolerances or features impossible to mould.
We machine Nylon, Acetal (POM), PTFE, UHMWPE, Polycarbonate, PEEK and many other engineering plastics. Internal bores, external profiles, slots, threaded inserts and complex 3D forms are all achievable by CNC machining.
Plastic sheet, rod and sections are cut, bent, welded (hot gas welding, ultrasonic welding) and bonded to create custom enclosures, tanks, ductwork, housings and structural plastic assemblies. Particularly useful for large components — such as chemical storage tanks and machine guards — that exceed injection mould size limits.
We fabricate in PVC, PP, PE, ABS and other weldable thermoplastics. Plastic fabrication also allows combinations of different plastics and hybrid metal-plastic assemblies in a single component or sub-assembly.
Choosing the right plastic grade determines performance, cost and service life. Our team helps you identify the optimal material based on your mechanical, thermal, chemical and electrical requirements.

Injection moulding is the dominant process for high-volume plastic parts. Pelletised thermoplastic resin is fed into the barrel of an injection moulding machine, melted to its processing temperature, and then injected under pressure (500–2000 bar) into a precision-machined steel mould cavity. The part cools, solidifies and is ejected — the cycle typically takes 10–60 seconds depending on part size and material.
CNC machining of engineering plastics is the fastest route from drawing to a finished, dimensionally verified part — with no tooling investment. We machine from stock engineering plastic rod, sheet, tube and bar on our CNC turning and milling centres:
For large, bespoke plastic structures and assemblies that exceed injection mould size limits, or where volumes are too low to justify mould tooling, plastic fabrication is the answer. We cut, bend, weld and bond plastic sheet, rod and sections into custom assemblies:
In the right application, engineering plastics outperform metals on multiple dimensions simultaneously — a combination no other material class can match.
Unlike steel, engineering plastics do not rust, corrode or oxidise — even in aggressive chemical, marine or humid environments. No painting, galvanising or anodising needed — saving cost and maintenance over the component's service life.
Plastics are 4–7× less dense than steel. Weight reduction improves energy efficiency in moving parts, reduces structural load on support systems and lowers shipping costs for large components. Critical in automotive and aerospace applications.
Nylon, Acetal (POM) and PTFE are inherently self-lubricating — they run against mating surfaces with no external lubrication required. Eliminates grease nipples, reduces maintenance intervals and is essential in food-grade and clean-room applications where lubricant contamination is unacceptable.
Most engineering plastics are excellent electrical insulators — critical for switch housings, electrical enclosures, connector bodies, PCB standoffs and all applications where electrical isolation is required. No risk of conductivity or short circuit from the housing material itself.
Injection moulded plastic parts, once tooling is amortised, have very low per-part material and cycle costs — often 60–90% lower per unit than equivalent CNC machined metal parts at the same volume. Complex multi-feature parts produced in a single cycle.
Plastic gears, bearings and guides dampen vibration and operate more quietly than equivalent metal components. Critical in applications where noise reduction is important — office equipment, consumer appliances, medical devices and precision instruments.
Our engineering plastic components are trusted in demanding applications across a wide range of manufacturing and engineering industries throughout India.
Nylon gears, ABS housings, PP interior trim, PC lamp covers, PTFE seals and bushings for fuel and brake systems

PP irrigation fittings, HDPE pipes and agricultural equipment housings that resist UV, moisture and chemical fertilisers
Engineering plastic components are only valuable if they perform reliably in service. Our quality process is built around catching problems at the source — in material selection and process control — rather than at final inspection.
Plastic raw materials sourced from certified suppliers with material data sheets and lot traceability. No unidentified or mixed grades enter our process.
Critical dimensions checked by calibrated measuring instruments — micrometers, vernier callipers, height gauges and CMM where required. First-off inspection before batch production commences.
100% visual inspection for defects — sink marks, warpage, short shots, flash, voids and surface blemishes. Functional checks (assembly fit, thread engagement, flexibility for living hinges) performed on first articles.
Inspection records, material certificates and first-article reports supplied on request. Batch numbering and lot traceability maintained throughout production and delivery.
We combine material expertise with three manufacturing processes and our own in-house tool room — giving clients a single, accountable partner from material selection and mould design through to a finished, inspected plastic component.
Many suppliers offer one plastic process. We offer three — injection moulding, CNC machining and fabrication — backed by our own tool room and material expertise.
Injection moulding, CNC machining and plastic fabrication under one roof — we select or combine processes based on your quantity, geometry and cost target. No need to manage separate moulding and machining suppliers for different parts of your product.
Injection mould tools designed and built by our own tool room — not outsourced. This gives you faster new-part lead times, lower tooling cost, easier design changes and complete control over your tooling investment without dependency on external vendors.
Our engineers have deep knowledge of engineering plastic properties, processing behaviour and failure modes. We proactively recommend the right grade — including glass-filled, impact-modified and lubricated compound variants — rather than just moulding whatever material the client specifies.
We actively help clients identify where metal components can be replaced by engineering plastics — reducing weight, eliminating corrosion, improving lubrication and cutting manufacturing cost. A Nylon gear replacing a brass one, or a POM valve seat replacing stainless steel, often delivers 40–60% cost savings with equal or better performance.
CNC machined prototypes for design validation followed by injection moulded production parts — all from the same supplier. We manage the transition from prototype to production without disruption, ensuring drawing alignment, quality consistency and supply chain continuity.
We supply industrial plastic components to clients across Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and other Indian states. Competitive pricing from our Coimbatore base, on-time delivery and responsive customer service.
