What is laser cutting?

Laser cutting acrylic sheet is a non-contact cutting method.

What are the ways for pasting acrylic sheets?

1.Butt joint: Place the two acrylic sheets to be jointed horizontally on the operating platform, close them together, and stick a tape on the bottom, leaving a gap not greater than 0.3mm wide for the application of adhesive. Use a syringe to inject the adhesive uniformly and slowly from one side into the gap until it is completely filled. After it is completely cured, remove the tape.

2. Facade bonding: Facade bonding is the most widely used bonding technology, which is widely used in the production of various plexiglass IT electronic digital display products. First, wipe clean the acrylic sheet surface to be bonded. It is best to use a master mold to achieve bonding, so that the bonded object does not shake, which is beneficial to improve the quality of bonding.

3. Bevel bonding: The bonding bevel must use a 90-degree angle and other profiling to prevent the displacement of the bonded surface. The adhesive should be applied evenly and slowly. The master can be removed only after it is completely cured.

4. Surface bonding: Plane bonding is a special bonding method. First, wipe the sticky surface clean and place it horizontally, and pour an appropriate amount of adhesive on it. Place one side of the other acrylic sheet diagonally in contact with the acrylic sheet that is coated with adhesive, and then lower it evenly and slowly, and drive out the bubbles from one side to complete the bonding.
