GUIDELINES: The general instructions for the fabrication, handling and storage of our Reynobond ® Architecture aluminium composite panels are presented in this manual. However you should respect the national working regulation of your country. DO NOT REMOVE the protective film before installation is com- pleted as specified below. Protective film should be peeled-off within 6 months after installation (refer to the Protective film section). INSPECTION: Any Reynobond ® Architecture aluminium composite panels that show visible damage (dents, impact damage, deep scrat- ches through the protective film, etc.) should be rejected unless the damaged section is outside of the required usable area. 1. Overall parcel inspection before unloading: Any defect detected should be notified to the carrier by writing on the official delivery document with a copy to Arconic Architectural Products within 24 hours. 2. Inspection of the merchandise after unloading, when implementing: Any defect detected should be notified to the sales representative by providing precise traceability data (coil number, pallet number, etc.) SAFETY: For all handling, transformation and installation steps ensure that appropriate protective equipment is worn: eye protection, hea- ring protection and gloves. As a general precaution, safety boots are also recommended. • In order not to damage the Reynobond ® Architecture aluminium com- posite panels, please handle them with care by supporting them at several points lengthwise according to the length and weight. Do not slide the coated surfaces against each other. Insert cardboard bet- ween the panels and the pallet. • Always transport Reynobond ® Architecture aluminium composite pa- nels horizontally on a solid pallet that supports their entire length and a suitable flat trolley. Ensure that the panels are carefully strapped and protected with top and bottom coversheets to pre- vent damage. • Store the material in a dry, temperate place, on a flat horizontal support whose dimensions are greater than or equal to the panels. • You will need to take into account the protective film's requirements for the storage (refer to the Protective film section). • Store the panels in a temperate workshop, from 18°C to 20°C, at least 24 hours before the transformation work begins in order to deal with dimensional changes due to weather and climate and to optimise the transformation work. • Always make sure that the weight of the material does not affect the panels below. • Maximum stacking height is 4.0m. 1. Handling and storage The protective films used by Arconic Architectural Products are intended to temporarily protect the surface against dirt, scratches and tool marks during the complete cycle: handling, storage, transport, transformations and mounting. However, they are not intended to protect against corrosi- on, humidity or chemical products. After removal, the protective films do not affect the surface of the Reynobond ® Architecture aluminium com- posite panels and thus do not lower the quality of the digital and screen printing. • Durability of the protective film: • Removal: The ambient temperature has an influence when the protecti- ve film is removed: The highest the temperature is, the easiest the peel off will be. • Important: Avoid stagnant water as it can create a risk of glue transfer when removing the protective film. Do NOT stick PVC tape, poly- urethane and modified silicone sealant onto the protective film. Plasticizers contained in these materials penetrate the film and may cause gloss change on the coating. Do NOT use permanent markers on the protective film. 2.

The dimensional tolerances generally accepted on fabricatedelements are ±1mm, when using a milling cutter with a 3mmflatsurface.

• Machining:

Good results were obtained on a CNC with a groove cutter disc,180mmdiameter(ormore)witharotationalspeedof7,000rpmandafeedrateof8m/min.Theuseofanendmillisalsorecommendedwitharotationalspeedof2,400rpmandafeedrateof20m/minaccordingtothetypeofmill.

However,theseparametersaredifferentforeverysetoftools,sopre-liminarytestingisrecommended.

Bending radiusofbetween2 and10mm inclusive canbeobtaineddependingon thechoiceofmilling techniqueand thegeometryofthegroove.

• Foldingaftermilling:

The rout and return technique consists of using shaped millingcutters tomakeV-shapedgroovesonthebackof theReynobond®Ar-chitecturealuminiumcompositepanels.Thisallows, inmostcases,thehandfoldingofthepanelswithoutanyneedforafoldingbench.
