Thermoforming and Vacuum Forming

Thermoforming and Vacuum Forming

Vacuum Forming, Press Forming and Pressure Forming are all common names for variants of the thermoforming process.

Thermoforming is compatible with most (materials), there are also hybrid material options for specialist applications.

Thermoforming competes with other processes, such as GRP, fabrication, sheet metal and injection moulding.

Depending on your precise application, the following list of benefits identifies the potential advantages to you of using the thermoforming process.

 Wide range of material characteristics, inherent in the available thermoplastic sheet range
 Economic production of surface detail
 Economic moulding of large parts

CWPL offers Vac forming, with both male or female tool formats and can mould up to 2500 x 1500mm.
