Punching

Punching is a process that involves using a machine or tool to create holes or shapes in a piece of plastic. The process uses a punch, which is a sharp tool that is pressed against the material with great force, cutting or shaping it as it goes. Punching is often used to create precise and accurate holes, such as those needed for screws or rivets, or to create specific shapes, such as slots or notches. The end result is a high-quality and accurate product that meets the specific needs of the project.

The Custom Plastic Extrusion Manufacturing Process

The Custom Plastic Extrusion Manufacturing Process-img

Plastic extrusion stands as a complex procedure wherein plastic is melted and reconstituted into predetermined forms. Plastic materials are introduced into a hopper, which subsequently channels the material into a heated barrel.

Following this, the molten plastic traverses through a screen and enters a die that molds it into the desired shapes as per specifications. The popularity of plastic extrusion spans diverse manufacturing applications due to its capability for high-volume production at notable speeds, all while maintaining cost-effectiveness. Among the familiar plastic goods derived from extrusion are pipes, tubing, window frames, weather stripping, and wire insulation.
