- Pairwise operation for thick materials: When acrylic thickness exceeds 6 mm, you can use two plastic bending strip heaters to heat the top and bottom surfaces simultaneously. The system can be combined with multiple heaters to heat several bend points at once for efficient production. - Material compatibility and temperature control: The acrylic bender provides adjustable temperature control via the thermostat and is suitable for acrylic, organic panels, PVC, and various other thermoplastics up to 6 mm (0.24 inches) thick. - Safety-focused cooling: A water circulation cooling system is built on both sides of the heater tube to prevent thermal deformation where cooling is not required, improving reliability and safety during operation. - Performance and versatility: Designed to deliver parallel heating for consistent bends, enabling efficient processing of multiple parts and curved profiles in a single setup. - Practical applications: - Creating curved acrylic panels for signs, displays, and lightboxes with smooth, uniform bends. - Producing lightweight protective covers, enclosures, or gaskets from acrylic or PVC up to 6 mm thick. - Prototyping small-batch curved thermoplastic components for hobby projects or maker applications. - Key specifications at a glance: - Compatible materials: Acrylic, organic plates, PVC, and other thermoplastics up to 6 mm (0.24 inches) thick - Heating method: Pairable plastic bending strip heaters; supports multiple heaters for multiple bend points - Temperature control: Adjustable via thermostat - Cooling: Water circulation cooling on both sides of the heater tube to prevent unwanted deformation
