Notably, our Machines are capable of Machining Parts up to 3000mm x 2000mm in size. Also, in most cases, what follows is the Fabrication process. Processes which, Sentinels Experienced team have perfected over the years. Thus, forming the finished products required. Finally, the last stage involves welding & adhesive, which is carried out to stabilize all the joints and create a seal.

Makrolon Polycarbonate Fabrications

Bending Bespoke Polycarbonate Fabrications

Certainly, the skills acquired to work with a complex Material, such as Polycarbonate, have been finely honed over many years. Thus, results in the ability to produce accurate bending. So, the result is all sized Guards, in very short time scales.

Sentinel can fabricate from 1mm up to 10mm. However, after that, thickness can depend on design and availability.

Machining Polycarbonate and Polycarbonate Fabrications

Certainly, our Plastic CNC Machining Services offer a great range of capabilities. Enabling us to achieve your Bespoke requirements. Significantly, combined with our in-house Plastic Fabrication Services, offer our customers a comprehensive package.

Shaped Polycarbonate

In addition, although we have finely honed our ability to work with Polycarbonate, our skills do also cover Acrylic, PETG and PVC. Similarly, other types of Engineering Plastic Materials from Acetal, Delrin, Nylon, Polyethylene, HDPE to ABS and so on.

Material, Polycarbonate Sheet / Makrolon® Sheet / Lexan® Sheet

In the main, as standard, solid Polycarbonate sheets are clear/transparent. But its main attribute is, a Plastic Material, Polycarbonate, which offers an extreme impact strength that exceeds most other clear Plastics. Also, noteworthy, is that Polycarbonate sheets can work in temperatures of -100 to +120 °C while still maintaining a high optical clarity and have a good fire rating.

Routing Polycarbonate – Polycarbonate Fabrications

How do Plastic CNC Routers Work

To begin, CNC Routers work with CAD (Computer-Assisted Design) and a toolpath program. Thus. this is where programming the desired paths, select the cutter (or cutters) you intend to use. Then, the software calculates the cutting instructions and the times required. Next, you secure the Plastic, normally via a vacuum, but can be mechanically fixed, or both in some cases. Install the correct Router bits in the tool holders and begin the Routing process.

A popular Plastic Material used to make shatterproof windows; it has a better light transmission than regular Glass.

Large Plastic Cut Shapes – Plastic Sheet Machining

Our Experienced Machinists, Polycarbonate Specialists, can produce small or large batch quantities with high accuracy and high speed. Furthermore, making this an economic form of producing cut to shape Plastic Parts. Customers from the Conveyor Manufacturer‘s to the high-tech world of underwater exploration. All Make use of Sentinels skilled staff to gain benefits, including cost saving and problem solving during the design process.

Reliable Supplier Polycarbonate Fabrications

Proudly, we are a reliable Insulation Plastic Fabricator of high-Quality Customer Specification Parts, which includes covers and shrouds. Plus, many more variations of Fabricated Components used in a wide variety of industries.

In Summary

To conclude, our emphasis is on the importance of offering a comprehensive one stop shop. Able to Manufacture Components and Parts to customers exacting requirements. So, unlike most others, only Fabricators of specific Plastics, Sentinel’s comprehensive knowledge on all types of Plastic methods of Manufacture.

Finally, Sentinel versatile and very Experienced Plastic Fabricators. So, why not call us, for any requirements we aim to be as helpful as possible. When molding or extruding is not a viable option, then we can help!

Ultimately, with its high transparency and smooth surface, Clear Polycarbonate Machining is an attractive Material for a wide range of applications. Thus, offering extreme impact resistance, even at temperatures down to -100°C.importantly. Which, unlike Acrylic, which requires heat to form, Polycarbonate sheets can be CNC Routed and cold bent.

So notably, as a Company, Sentinel Plastics has become synonymous with Polycarbonate Machining and Fabrication. Also, importantly, Polycarbonate is the most popular choice of Plastic. Certainly, when it comes to a requirement of strength and ultimately safety. Furthermore, while in its Sheet form, it is extremely impact resistant. Further, interior applications, up to 6 mm thickness Polycarbonate has a B1 fire protection for classification.

 Polycarbonate Applications:

Firstly, many Parts Manufactured by Polycarbonate Machining, are guards, screens and covers. Also. Glazing for commercial business and factories. Plus, Safety doors. Certainly, high usage for sneeze guards, make it a popular Material. Further, widely used for Industrial vehicles and Lamp covers. Also, where a high level of heat is generated, being highly fire-resistant, versions exist for the use in Switch cubicles, electrical equipment.
Furthermore, other uses for Polycarbonate are Trade fair structures and Public buildings. Certainly, within the Industry, the clear Plastic of choice is Polycarbonate. Hence, its popularity and wide use as safety guards.

In addition, UV coating can be applied to the surface of the smooth or textured Polycarbonate sheets. Plus, solid sheets retain their shine with no yellowing, nor change of colour. Also, the positive effect in applying a protective coating, is that you are increasing the resistance to long-term weathering. Thus, provides a long Service life.

Polycarbonate Machining – Parts Available in:

Moreover, Polycarbonate, available in Transparent clear and white translucent. Also, available in bronze, grey, green, blue.

Lexan Sheet Cutting

Further,available grades: Polycarbonate Machining

1: Polycarbonate Sheet / FG food grade
2: Solid Polycarbonate Sheet / FR flame retardant
3: Polycarbonate Sheet / NR non reflective
4: Outstanding through reinforced UV protection.
