The Different Types of Plastic Fabrication Techniques

Plastic fabrication makes it possible for plastic materials to be shaped and molded into different forms.

There are different types of plastic fabrication methods because plastic also comes in different types and not one method can handle all types successfully.

Compounding or Blending

Compounding or Blending is the process of combining two or more types of plastic materials by melting, molding, and cooling them into different shapes

Plastic Extrusion

Its is used to make pipes, tubes, and plastic sheets of complex shapes and large sizes. In this method, plastic is melted and then cut into pellets then forced through a die.

Welding

Welding is not only used in metal fabrication but is also used in plastic fabrication.

It is most commonly used in thermoplastics because they can’t be bonded using adhesives

Plastic Lamination

Plastic lamination is a plastic fabrication method that provides a protective layer on the plastic products.

Plastic foaming

It Creates lightweight plastic products that are good insulators that are used as building finishes.
