Polycarbonates (PC) vs Polymer PTFE/FEP Machining
Polycarbonates (PC) are a group of thermoplastic polymers containing carbonate groups in their chemical structures. Polycarbonates used in engineering are strong, tough materials, and some grades are optically transparent. They are easily worked, molded, and thermoformed. Because of these propert...Read More -
Replacing Failed Glazing Gaskets and Seals
One of the key properties that should be expected from any window or door is the ability to keep the heat in a building and the cold and wet weather outside. Flexible glazing seals are used in window and door frames to ensure that the outside weather is keep exactly that, outside. However, over t...Read More -
Polymer Extrusion & Injection Molding Process Comparison
Extrusion is widely used in various industries.The screw in the extruder rotates and develops sufficient pressure to force material to go through a die and produce products with desired geometry. Injection molding is the most commonly used manufacturing process for the fabrication of plasti...Read More -
Processing and machining of PTFE parts
PTFE is known for it’s stability and resistance to many chemicals. … This makes it a very versatile material, and we mould, form and machine parts in this material. Generally, PTFE is processed into semi-finished shapes with compression or iso-static moulding techniques. The PTFE resi...Read More -
