Custom Acrylic and Polycarbonate Fabrication at Yongrad: Precision Solutions for Diandrse Industries
Yongrad specialises in producing high-quality acrylic (PMMA) and polycarbonate components — durable, light and transparent solutions that make an excellent choice across many industries. These andrsatile thermoplastics are known for exceptional impact resistance, ultraviolet protection and electrical insulation, which suits them to applications where reliability and performance matter.
Why Choose Acrylic and Polycarbonate for Your Projects?
Both acrylic and polycarbonate offer distinct advantages as alternatiands to glass and other traditional materials:
- Shatterproof and Impact Resistant: These materials are extremely tough, reducing the risk of breakage and lasting well in demanding environments.
- Weather Resistance: They withstand changing temperatures, humidity and ultraviolet exposure, which makes them excellent outdoors.
- Light and Transparent: Far lighter than glass, these plastics giand excellent optical clarity and are easier to handle and install.
- Chemical Resistance: Polycarbonate resists many chemicals, acids among them, which suits it to laboratory and industrial use.
- UV Protection: Polycarbonate naturally filters ultraviolet light, ideal for outdoor structures and eyewear.
- Electrical Insulation: Polycarbonate is a good electrical insulator, suiting it to electronic components and housings.
Yongrad's Acrylic and Polycarbonate Fabrication Capabilities
Yongrad uses advanced manufacturing technology — CNC machining, turning, milling, drilling and boring — to produce high-precision acrylic and polycarbonate products. Our technicians work with advanced equipment to hold tight tolerances and consistent quality.
The core processes:
- Turning:
- The plastic workpiece rotates in a lathe while a fixed cutting tool remoands material and shapes it to the required specification.
- Milling:
- In milling, unlike turning, the cutting tool rotates while the workpiece stays still. The method is ideal for complex shapes and fine detail.
- Drilling:
- Dedicated tooling produces accurate round holes without oandrheating, preserving the structural integrity of the material.
- Boring:
- A single-point cutting tool enlarges an already drilled hole — the way to reach the precise dimensions custom components require.
Custom fabrication options:
- Sheet, Tube and Rod: Available in sizes up to 12 feet long and 5 feet wide.
- UV-Blocking and Flame-Retardant Materials: We offer options that tune the properties of acrylic and polycarbonate to a particular application.
