Good transparency, uniform thickness, and can be molded with a wooden mold! The pressing pressure can be partially adjusted.
Hot press molding involves heating resin sheets to soften them, using male and female molds, applying pressure with a press machine, and cooling them to solidify in the same shape, maintaining the shape at room temperature. Since molding is done using male and female molds without fixing the sheet, it allows for a more uniform thickness of the molded products compared to vacuum forming. Additionally, in most cases, molding can be done with inexpensive wooden molds. Therefore, it is suitable for small to medium lot production. 【Features】 ■ Can mold three-dimensional integrated products like vacuum forming ■ Uniform thickness with less variation compared to vacuum forming ■ Less prone to mold marks, suitable for transparent resins ■ Can be molded with inexpensive wooden molds instead of expensive metal molds *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

basic information
【Processing Steps】 1. Heat the plastic sheet in a furnace to soften it. 2. Place the softened sheet onto the press mold. 3. The upper mold descends and applies pressure, and the sheet is left in that state to cool. 4. Once cooling is complete, the upper mold rises. 5. Trim the molded product removed from the mold to the required shape. 6. Complete. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

Company information
Since its establishment in 1975 in Toyama City, Toyama Prefecture, we have been engaged in consistent production from processing to assembly using plastic sheets (boards) as raw materials. The production using plastic sheets is suitable for small to medium-sized, diverse production or prototypes, and is utilized in various fields such as the interiors and exteriors of large vehicles and special vehicles, production equipment in high-tech fields, parts for machine tools, medical device components, aircraft parts, fixtures for commercial facilities, displays for museums, and building materials for exteriors. We mainly use acrylic, PVC, polycarbonate, PET, PP, PE, ABS, AES, and artificial marble. We primarily perform vacuum forming, pressure forming, R bending, adhesive welding, NC processing, and polishing with the above resins. Among these, we have focused on thermal processing since our founding. Thermal processing methods such as R bending and vacuum forming require not only equipment but also experience and intuition. In particular, R bending of transparent materials like polycarbonate has received high praise from many clients. Additionally, our vacuum forming is suitable for large items and small lot production of diverse products due to its single-shot forming capability. In our daily production, we always maintain a commitment and theme, continuously striving for improvement and enhancing our vacuum forming technology without being satisfied with the current state.
