Plastic Fabrication and Welding

FABRICATION

  • Hot Air Welding.

  • Heat Forming.

  • Gluing.

  • Mechanically Fastening.

  • CNC Routing.

  • Large Scale CNC.

  • Laser Cutting and Etching.

General Plastic Ballarat provide a complete plastic fabrication service which includes plastic welding, bending, polishing and manufacturing of machine shields, tanks, display stands and a cut-to-size service for all sheet and engineering requests.

 

We have a highly skilled team of plastic fabricators who can design, manufacture and repair products to suit your needs using our state-of-the-art machines and processes.

 

Working extensively in industrial and complex plastic fabrication, we provide a plastic fabrication service for simple through to complex and difficult items. The techniques we use vary depending on your needs.

The fabrication ancillaries we have available include acrylic rod, tube, profiles, adhesives, hinges, keyholes, hooks and turntables. We have extensive knowledge of materials and the long term behavior of the products we sell and can offer clients many options for the best plastic fabrication technique needed for their component.

WELDING

  • Hot Air Welding.

  • Heat Forming.

  • Gluing.

  • Mechanically Fastening.

  • CNC Routing.

  • Large Scale CNC.

  • Laser Cutting and Etching.

We provide a plastic welding service to complement our plastic fabrication service where we can undertake plastic maintenance and repairs for both industrial and domestic clients.

 

Hot Air Welding is the process we use to fabricate certain plastics, PVC, Polypropylene, HDPE, Polycarbonate, ABS, and tanks for water treatment. Plastic welding is the fusing of two pieces of plastic of the same type using a plastic welding rod also of the same type using plastic welding equipment.

One of a plastic welders worst problems is the attempted repair with adhesives, super glue and other domestic glues making welding repairs sometimes impossible.

General Plastic understand the key to a good plastic welding job is the correct identification of material so your plastic is matched with the correct plastic welding rod. Some plastics can't be welded using a plastic welder but can be chemically welded using our Plastic Adhesives.

The fabrication ancillaries we have available include Acrylic Rod, Tube, Profiles, adhesives, Hinges, Keyholes, Hooks and Turntables. We have extensive knowledge of materials and the long term behaviour of the products we sell and can offer clients many options for the best plastic fabrication technique needed for their component.
