| Equipment and Processes |
|
Saw Cutting
Plastic sheet is often supplied in
sizes 48" X 96" or larger. In order to maintain the best
utilization of that sheet material and/or the handling
of it, we most often have to process the sheet into smaller
blank sizes. |
Laser Machining
Over 25 years ago, Exactec pioneered the use of Lasers
in the cutting of plastic sheet materials. Today we remain
the Midwest's largest fabricator specializing in Laser
Cutting Technology.
Benefits include:
- "Flame-polished"
Edge Quality of finished parts
-
Tolerance Control
to +/- .005" of an inch.
-
Ability to process
exceptionally detailed/intricate shapes.
-
Ability to process
previously silk-screened
parts to the bleed edge.
-
Ability to process
extremely small components...less than 1/2" in diameter
-
No Tooling Expense

Forming - Hot and Cold Line Bending
Forming plastic is most
often accomplished with properly heated and controlled
wire elements and precise fixturing. However, accuracy,
quality, and consistency is the direct result of
our experienced staff of quality operators. They
will see to it that your bends are exceptional every
time.
|
Flame Polishing
A Laser cut edge, in most cases, is
of significantly higher quality
than a Router or Saw cut edge, and
sufficient for most applications. However, when
nothing short of a "glass edge" is acceptable, we
have the ability to further support your cosmetic
concerns.
Laminating
Laminates are used for a myriad of reasons.
Sometimes, laminates are used
simply to protect the surface of a part from
scratching. Other times, they are used to completely
alter the look of a base sheet of plastic to closely
resemble Wood Grain, Metal, or an
endless array of textures and colors.
Routing
Beveled/Shaped edges are no problem
for Exactec. With our routers and a large inventory
of standard tooling, we can satisfy your exact requirements.

Solvent Bonding
Beyond the process of mechanically
bonding one part to another
with the use of solvents,
Exactec makes sure it is done with the highest
degree of workmanship and quality.
Complete Assembly
Screws, rivets, tapes, hinges, locks, bump-ons,
extrusions, etc. Exactec can perform whatever level
of assembly and pack-out your project specifications
require. |
Silkscreen Printing
It is truly amazing what
we can do when it comes to custom screen printing.
At Exactec, we have over 25 years of experience
and talent to meet your every expectation. Our state
of the art equipment allows us to be most efficient,
yet, it is the talent of our people that allows
us to create the images that bring your products
