Folding and gluing of Plexiglass and other plastic materials

FOLDING OF PLEXIGLASS AND OTHER PLASTIC MATERIALS

FIRMA performs both hot and cold bending of acrylic glass and other plastic materials thanks to thermal resistance bending centers, and thanks to a press-bending machine dedicated to the cold bending of polycarbonate.

HOT BENDING

Acrylic sheets (PMMA) will be folded along the heat lines on which they are placed; The folds are then defined and assigned, placing the sheets on the dime above/inside which will be let cool and harden again.

COLD BENDING

Sheets of compact polycarbonate (PC) will be folded by placing the slabs on dime that thanks to the pressure will break the polymer chains and give new shape to the sheets themselves.

GLUING OF PLEXIGLASS AND OTHER PLASTIC MATERIALS

FIRMA makes gluing of acrylic glass both by traditional process with mono and bi-component adhesives, and UV bonding.

With both techniques can be carried out aesthetic and sealing gluing of the methacrylate and it is possible to realize T or 45° acrylic gluing.

TRADITIONAL BONDING

Gluing made with mono and bi-component glues according to the traditional technique of gluing and drying without the support of curing processes.

UV BONDING

Bonding carried out by specialized personnel trained by the company for the use of machines with UV rays. These machines are able to speed up the drying process of the glues (through curing processes) and to guarantee gluing aesthetically relevant without bubbles or imperfections and high mechanical resistance.
