Process of Fabrication

The fabrication process involves transforming raw materials into finished parts or products using various manufacturing techniques. Below is a step by step overview of a typical fabrication process, including the methods employed by Petron Thermoplast:

1. Design and Planning

  • A design is created based on customer specifications or application needs
  • Detailed CAD (Computer-Aided Design) models and drawings are created, outlining the exact dimensions, tolerances, and materials required.
  • Appropriate materials, such as high-performance plastics like PEEK, polycarbonate, or UHMWPE, are selected based on factors like strength, temperature resistance, and chemical compatibility.

2. Material Preparation

  • Raw materials (plastics, metals, etc.) are sourced and prepared for fabrication.
  • The material is often cut into manageable sizes for easier handling during the fabrication process.

3. Cutting and Shaping

  • Laser Cutting: A focused laser beam cuts precise shapes out of plastic sheets, ideal for intricate designs.
  • Waterjet Cutting: A high-pressure stream of water mixed with abrasive materials cuts through tough materials like plastics and metals without causing heat damage.
  • CNC Machining: Computer-controlled machines are used to drill, mill, and turn materials into complex parts with high precision and accuracy.
  • Plastic Extrusion: Heated plastic is forced through a mold (die) to form continuous shapes like rods, pipes, or sheets.

4. Forming and Machining

  • Bending: Applying force to bend plastic or metal to specific angles or shapes.
  • Machining: CNC machines are used to refine and shape the materials to exact specifications.
  • Turning, Milling, and Drilling: Creating complex geometric features like holes, slots, or threads on the material.

5. Assembly

  • Mechanical Assembly: Assembling fabricated parts using fasteners (bolts, screws) or adhesives to create a finished product.
  • Custom Assembly: Petron Thermoplast offers complete assembly services where individual components are put together based on the project’s requirements.

6. Finishing

  • Sanding, Polishing, or Deburring: To smooth out rough edges or surfaces and ensure high-quality finishes.
  • Surface Treatments: In some cases, protective coatings or surface treatments are applied to improve durability or resistance to environmental factors.

7. Quality Control and Testing

  • Every fabricated part undergoes rigorous quality checks, including dimensional inspection, performance testing, and tolerance verification, to ensure it meets the required specifications.
  • Petron Thermoplast uses advanced testing equipment and protocols to maintain consistency and reliability in every batch.

8. Packaging and Delivery

  • Once the parts pass quality checks, they are carefully packaged to prevent damage during transit.
  • Petron Thermoplast ensures timely delivery of the fabricated products to the customer.
