Plastic Film Conversion

Plastic film conversion is the process of precision cutting a sheet of plastic film to varying lengths and widths for use in other manufacturing processes. This technique is used to create a wide variety of parts, fabricate insulators and components for electronics and medical equipment.

How It Works

At Alcami we advise you through every step of your manufacturing process, including post-production services like plastic film conversion.
Alcami specialises in a variety of post-production film conversion services. We begin with a purchased or extruded material sheet and use slitting processes to cut it to the correct length and width for the desired application. After this we are able to punch out parts, which can then be bent or taped with double-sided adhesive stickers.
If you need to meet additional conversion requirements, please reach out to us and we will be happy to discuss how we can cater to your specific project needs.

  3. Bending – creating a curve in a film sheet or extracted part.
  4. Taping – adding double-sided adhesive stickers to finished parts.
Yes, we can provide both heat and ultrasonic welding.

Yes, in that case we will first thermoform the parts, and then we will do the 3-D cutting in a separate operation.
