Rapid Sheet Metal Offers Laser Cut Flat Acrylic Parts

July 22, 2008 - PRLog -- Nashua, NH – Rapid Sheet Metal, Inc., specializing in rapid turnaround of sheet metal and stamped metal prototypes, has announced that it has added a plastic material, acrylic, to its list of available materials.  With a standard shipping lead-time of 5 business days or less, product designers can now be assured that flat acrylic prototypes are available in a week or less.

"Acrylic parts in the flat are used by product designers in a number of ways including bezels and face plates.  Acrylic is also a good substitute for G10 and can be used to prototype the footprint of a circuit board.  In addition, by combining the acrylic prototypes with our 2 day turn, in-house silk screening service, companies are now able to procure finished acrylic products with graphics in well under two weeks.” says James Jacobs, President of Rapid Sheet Metal.

Rapid Sheet Metal offers laser cut acrylic in thicknesses from .060” to .250” and stocks acrylic in thicknesses of .060”, .125” and .250” thicknesses.  Other thicknesses are available.
