Cutting: Akrilit sheet is cut using a high speed (4000 cycle/minute) circular saw with teeth of hard metal or diamond.
The cutting angle of the circular saw has to be zero in relation to the circle´s center.
Drilling: Akrilit can be drilled using conical drill bits with an angle between 60 and 90. Blunt bits can cause thin and invisible cracks which can get deeper by the passage of time. Therefore, it is important to keep in mind that the drill bits are sharpened. During the drilling work, please note that the process has to be carried out slowly and the chips coming out from both grooves must be smooth. If necessary, cooling liquid must be used.
Thermoforming: Akrilit sheets are formed using a vacuum or pneumatic press after they have been softened for about 5 to 10 minutes in ovens with air circulation of 160 to 180°C.
Adhesion: It can be easily adhered using its own adhesive "Akrifiks."
Polishing: The saw traces and scratches are removed first with a sandpaper of number 800 and then with number 1000 by using water. The surface is polished by using polishing felts and polishing pastes.
Cleaning: It is easily cleaned by using a soft cloth or chamois with soap or detergent and warm water. The areas contaminated with grease, machine oil, etc. are first cleaned by using petroleum or hexane and then washed out with warm water which contains soap. Never use scouring powders, aceton, benzine and thinner for cleaning.
