Everything you need to know about vacuum forming and pressure forming in one place! We have summarized the key points of "vacuum forming," a representative molding method that can accommodate various shapes while keeping mold costs and lead times down, and "pressure forming," which allows for sharp surface shapes comparable to injection molding by making the surface in contact with the mold the product's surface. 【Contents】 ■ What materials can vacuum and pressure forming accommodate? ■ What types of molds are used in vacuum and pressure forming? ■ Key points for selecting mold materials ■ Advantages and disadvantages of vacuum and pressure forming *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

Air pressure forming is a method that involves using compressed air at 3 to 10 Kg/cm² to closely adhere a heated and softened sheet to a mold, thereby achieving the desired shape. By making the surface in contact with the mold the product surface, it is possible to create sharp surface shapes comparable to injection molding, as well as to form undercuts and reentrant shapes. 【Features】 ■ Reduces mold costs and allows for quick production ■ Easy to make partial design changes ■ Capable of large sizes and small lot production *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

Our company offers "vacuum forming," a representative plastic molding method that involves heating and softening film or sheet-like resin materials and closely adhering them to a mold. Compared to injection molding and other methods, mold production is inexpensive and quick, allowing for a variety of product shapes. We also accommodate small-batch production of diverse varieties. 【Features of Vacuum Forming - Single Shot】 ■ Since the product surface does not touch the mold, it excels in creating soft, rounded lines. ■ By using composite multilayer materials and silk screen printed sheets, various surface textures and decorations can be achieved. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.
