Manifolds, also called control blocks or block valves, are used in all kind of industries. Their main purpose is to combine and route gasses and fluids of all kind within one piece of material.\u00a0Manifolds are frequently applied when multiple channels are needed to establish an integrated design. Many advantages over conventional techniques for transporting gases and fluids within a machine or process persist. Depending on the application one can opt for a plastic manifold as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Why choose a manifold made of plastic?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A manifold<\/strong> is a product with several branches or pipes. When you choose to have such a product made from high-quality plastic, you not only invest in a future-proof solution<\/strong>, but also benefit from lower cost<\/strong>, more freedom of design<\/strong> and very high chemical resistance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These parts require a high degree of precision, which is why our specialists are on hand to offer you their expert assistance. Satisfying your requirements is our priority. BKB Precision will discuss the many possibilities open to you and help you determine the feasibility of your plastic manifold(s). In addition, you can be assured of the highest quality and craftsmanship.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Manifolds made of different types of plastic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We can work with various plastics<\/a> when manufacturing your manifolds, including high-performance plastics<\/a> and engineering plastics<\/a> which have their own specific properties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

BKB Precision will be happy to help you choose the right plastic for your manifolds. Our priority is to fulfil your requirements and you can be assured of work of the highest quality and craftsmanship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manifolds made of high-performance plastics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

High-performance plastics<\/a>\u00a0are ideal for manifolds. Materials like PEEK, PEI, PSU and PTFE (Teflon) are\u00a0excellent alternatives for components usually made with metal. The\u00a0advantages\u00a0vary from plastic to plastic: from a low own weight so that dynamic systems perform better to good mechanical properties, and from resistance to a wide temperature range to low levels of outgassing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cleaning and assembly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Within industries like the semiconductor and medical industry, we see a tendency to use assembled manifolds for cleanroom applications<\/strong>. Assembling such manifolds is a service we can offer in-house. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our specialists in the\u00a0Assembly department<\/a>\u00a0can make your manifold according to your specifications, including its assembly, welding, gluing and polishing. We can also clean and package your products.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Manifolds made of engineering plastics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In addition to high-performance plastics, it is also possible to make manifolds from\u00a0engineering plastics<\/a>. These are often an effective, versatile alternative to other materials. The following engineering plastics can be easily processed into a manifold: POM, Polycarbonate, PMMA, PET and PP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
