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.
