| Thermoforming
is a method of processing sheets of plastic resin into finished
parts. Sheet stock is available in a wide variety of specifications
in order that we may tailor it's performance to your needs.
The plastic sheet is heated to it's particular forming temperature
and immediately shaped to the desired configuration. At processing
temperatures the sheet is very pliable, enabling it to be
formed rapidly into great detail with a minimum of force.
Pressure is maintained until the part has cooled. It is then
trimmed of the excess material used to hold the sheet during
processing.
Key Benefits

- Ability
to produce parts with very high strength
- Ability
to form very large parts
- Thin
parts with very small thickness-to-area ratio
- Thermoforming
foam sheet
- Pre-decoration
of sheets
