- PVC
- Acetal
- Nylon
Bending
We achieve multiple angles and configurations based on client requests for bending. We can manage intricate shapes with high repeatability due to our advanced technology and experienced machine operators.
Plastic sheets can be bent by either heating or cold bending. Heat bending is a popular process among our customers due to the low tooling costs, quick set up and uniform results. The heat bending process allows thermoplastic sheets to be re-molded or formed.
Great material options for heat bending include:
- Acrylic
- Polycarbonate
- PETG
- ABS
- PVC
