Fabrication
Polyfit’s plastic fabrication workshop is equipped to fabricate custom tanks, guards, chutes, launders, fittings and pipe spools to our client's requested specifications. Our fully equipped workshop includes a sheet butt fusion welding machine, lathe, and CNC router to provide our clients with a quality product that is cost effective.
We have experience welding and working with a variety of plastics including:
- High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
- Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE)
- Polypropylene (PP)
- Polyvinyldenfluroride (PVDF)
- Polyvinylchloride (PVC)
- Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)
- Dual Containment Systems
Our workshop has a range of welding equipment for pipe spooling, fabricating segmented bends, tees and junctions to client specifications and drawings. We can create custom rectangular and cylindrical tanks supported by our Tank Designer 5 Software to perform engineered calculations for temperature, chemical and elemental factors for client review. With the use of our sheet butt fusion welding machine we can weld and/or roll HDPE sheet up to 40mm thick with full weld traceability.
- For wear lining systems which are designed for flow promotion on steel surfaces due to UHMWPE’s low friction, anti stick and abrasion-resistant properties.
- This method takes advantage of the mechanical strength of steel pipe with the abrasion, chemical and corrosion resistance of HDPE which is ideal for slurry applications.
