WHAT IS THERMOFORMING?

DX Plastiques

Thermoforming is the perfect balance between heating and plastic to precision form a part.

Thermoforming is a technique that consists of taking a sheet of thermoplastic and placing it on a frame in order to heat it to soften it.

This takes advantage of the material's ability to warp without breaking in order to shape it using a mold. Any residual air between the plate that holds the mold and the hot sheet is then removed using a vacuum.

The sheet adopts the mold's imprint; after cooling, we get the part we expected.
