Vacuum forming is a manufacturing process where plastic sheets are heated and then vacuum suctioned onto a mold to create the desired shape.
The vacuum forming process involves three key steps: heating, forming, and cooling. Initially, the plastic sheet is heated until pliable, then shaped against the mold, and finally, the formed product is cooled to solidify.
Used in a variety of industries, including food packaging, automotive components, household appliances, toys, medical devices, and construction materials, vacuum forming is noted for its efficiency. It offers advantages like quick mold production, short lead times, cost-effectiveness, and the ability to create detailed shapes and transparent items. Additionally, it supports the recycling of materials.
