The History of Hendrick in Plastics
View Slide Show of Plastics Applications
When Rohm Haas, a German chemical company sought to popularize the use of Plexiglas following World War II, they began referring the Hendrick Panel Saw to their distributors. Hendrick was soon gaining national renown, as Plexiglas distributors used the Hendrick panel sawing machine to trim the rough edges of their cell-cast Plexiglas. Hendrick panel saws, the first of their kind to be marketed to the plastics industry, opened new production horizons for both panel saws and plastics industry.
When Hendrick married computers with the panel saw and introduced computerized routing machinery they once again revolutionized plastic processing, vastly improving productivity and machining tolerances. Hendrick has historically been and continues to be today the innovator in plastic panel sheet processing and machining.
