CNC · PROTEK UNICO 4020

From a flat sheet to a finished component

Our CNC enables shape cutting, milling, drilling, countersinking and threading. It is also used for relief milling, machining from both sides and edges in a radius or at a certain angle. This allows us to combine the external shape of the part, openings and assembly details in one order.

Material and geometry

We process acrylic (PMMA), polycarbonate glazing, composite panels, aluminium and engineering plastics such as POM. When choosing a process, we take into account the material, thickness, tool access and the required final appearance.

Processing options

Table 2050 × 4000 mm
Workpiece height approx. up to 80 mm

Table size and workpiece height are equipment data. We check the feasibility and tolerance of each piece according to the plan.

Cutting, engraving and shaping machines

We combine the individual processes depending on the product. Laser, CNC and panel saw have different tasks; cutting can be followed by polishing, engraving, bending or assembly.

Laser cutting

Trotec SP 3000

For cutting larger acrylic sheets and shapes according to plan. We combine the laser process with the material PMMA; for polycarbonate glazing, we choose another suitable cutting method.

Working area 2050 × 3050 mm
Acrylic up to 30 mm · power 400 W

The machine has two working zones. The actual cut and edge are adjusted to the thickness and geometry of the piece.

Laser with camera

Trotec SP 1500

Laser cutting of acrylic and engraving. The camera allows cutting of printed panels, where the cut must follow the motif.

Laser power 400 W
Camera for cutting printed panels

For the printed product, send the graphics and the cut line. We check the usable format according to the desired processing.

Engraving and motif preparation →

Flat and round surfaces

Spirit GLS 40 W

Laser engraving machine for texts, graphics and details on panels and, with appropriate preparation, also on round objects such as acrylic tubes, rods, bottles and glasses.

Working surface 860 × 610 mm

Workpiece preparation information

Workpiece height up to 177 mm. For round objects: length up to 650 mm, outer diameter up to 150 mm and weight up to 4 kg. We check the shape and method of clamping before implementation.

Example of engraving in our workshop →

Edge finishing

Euroacryl ABP310 Concept II

Machining of flat edges. With transparent acrylic, we can achieve a high gloss, but for a different look, we choose a matte or satin finish.

Workpiece length 20–3100 mm

Thickness and material

The equipment allows processing up to 120 mm thick. The suitability of processing acrylic, polycarbonate glazing, POM or PVC and the achievable edge appearance are checked for the selected material.

Hot linear bending

PGM MB 200 heating table

For bending acrylic and polycarbonate glazing along specific lines. Double-sided heating is used depending on the thickness of the sheet and the required bend.

Length up to 2050 mm
Sheet thickness up to 15 mm

The angle, radius, arrangement of bends and feasibility are coordinated according to the sketch of the final product.

Bending options →

Straight cuts of panels

Panel saw

For preparing rectangular pieces of acrylic and polycarbonate glazing to size. It is a starting point for flat panels or further processing of components.

Send the length, width and quantity of each piece. Mark the edges that will be visible or intended for gluing.

It is not necessary to purchase the entire panel format.

More than machining

Consulting and 2D drawings

We help with material selection and prepare technical drawings in 2D vector format. If you do not yet have final documentation, start with a description of the application, a sketch and basic dimensions.

Order preparation and services →

Bonding and assembly

We connect cut, machined and bent parts into stands, boxes and other custom-made products. The type of joint and adhesive are selected depending on the material and the desired appearance.

Thermoforming

In addition to linear bending, we offer thermoforming over a mould of panels. For a three-dimensional shape, please send a plan or sample and indicate whether you already have a mold.

Vacuum metallization

We produce coloured acrylic mirrors by applying metal under high vacuum to transparent coloured acrylic. Describe the desired color, shape and application in the enquiry.

From your drawing to the finished product

  1. Describe the application. Tell us what you are making, where the product will be used, and what look you want.
  2. Add dimensions and quantity. Indicate material and thickness, if already selected. Indicate holes, threads, bends, visible edges, and required tolerances in the design.
  3. Send a sketch, plan, or photo. Send files to [email protected]. We check the implementation options and prepare an offer.

You do not need to choose a machine in advance. Describe the finished product and we will recommend the machining and fabrication steps. Published working dimensions are processing data, not sales material formats or a guarantee of the feasibility of each geometry.
