EuroComb: Aluminium Honeycomb Panels Processing Demystified
EuroComb: Aluminium Honeycomb Panels Processing Demystified
Remember the internal tug-of-war when smartphones arrived, and we held on to our trusted push-button mobiles? Today we have long since bid them goodbye, having overcome our initial misgivings about smartphones.
Innovations are accompanied by apprehensions, which once demystified, open up a world of benefits! It’s the same with Aluminium Honeycomb Panels (AHPs). This blog will therefore focus on bursting the bubbles of doubt surrounding AHP processing, to promote informed decisions that help reap the amazing benefits of this lightweight
EuroComb Panel – a great boon for Clean Room Systems, Commercial Facades, Ceilings, Coach Bodies, and Aerospace Applications.
A word about Aluminium Honeycomb Panels: Inspired by nature, EuroComb is a sandwich panel with a hexagonal honeycomb structure at its core that contributes to its lightweight, while simultaneously augmenting stiffness and stability. Built on the principles of safety and environment-friendliness, EuroComb incorporates fire-retardant properties and are fully recyclable. Added advantages are their superior flatness, exceptional stiffness, and sound insulation. Our PVDF coating makes EuroComb weatherproof, UV resistant, waterproof and dust-proof.
Now let’s deal with the deceptive doubts.
Myth: EuroComb processing is complex and difficult, requiring highly skilled labour.
Reality: EuroComb processing employs normal tools with specific tool extensions to make processing easy – ensuring a smooth finished product with minimum effort.
So, let’s explore each process to demystify the AHP Processing myth.
Cutting – employs two simple tools:
- Pitch Router/Hand Router
- Common Blade
The Pitch Router affixed with the Common Blade is effortlessly guided across the length of the AHP that is to be cut. That’s it – the job is done!
Edging – involves four tools:
- Electric Router
- Rectangular Groove Bit
- Pitch Router/Hand Router
- Common Blade
The Electric Router affixed with the Rectangular Groove is guided across the bottom edge, keeping the EuroComb’s top cover intact. The Pitch Router’s Common Blade is then guided across to make a groove on the Top cover, enabling it to be manually bent over the smoothened edge, to conceal it. Voilà, you have a smooth finished product with edges neatly and safely covered!
Folding – uses the same four tools as Edging:
- Electric Router
- Rectangular Groove
- Pitch Router/Hand Router
- Common Blade
The Electric Router affixed with the Rectangular Groove when guided across the area to be folded, will efficiently scoop off the bottom cover and honeycomb core, keeping the top cover intact. The Pitch Router’s Common Blade is then run across the top cover to make a groove, enabling the desired manual folding. Hey presto! – You have a safe, smooth finished product accurately and impeccably folded at 90°.
