Factory making Diffuser Acrylic Sheet - 1mm acrylic sheets – Gokai

1mm Acrylic Sheet extruded Acrylic sheets are manufactured by a continuous production process. Acrylic or PMMA pellets are fed from a containment silo to a feed hopper above an extruder line. The pellets are fed into the extrusion barrel and are driven through the barrel by a single or twin screw auger system. As the pellets progress through the heated zones of the extruder barrel the heat increases until the pellets melt into a molten mass.

Extruded sheet bends and molds well, because it is more malleable than cast acrylic, so you can more easily form it into the shape you want. It also bonds and flame polishes well. This makes your final product more durable because small surface scratches can be polished or buffed away.
