[Technical Proposal Example] Transitioning from R bending processing to vacuum forming to achieve weight reduction.
A case where significant weight reduction can be expected due to thinning.
We would like to introduce a case where weight reduction was achieved by switching from R bending processing to vacuum forming. In R bending processing, a product thickness of 3mm or more is required to ensure rigidity. If the product thickness is less than 3mm, it may not provide sufficient rigidity depending on the application. In such cases, we recommend transitioning to vacuum forming. Even with a thickness of less than 3mm, it is possible to maintain strength by incorporating steps or recesses, enabling further thinning and weight reduction. 【Case Overview】 ■Issue: R bending processing requires a product thickness of 3mm or more to ensure rigidity. ■Countermeasure: Recommend transitioning to vacuum forming. ■Effects: - It is possible to maintain strength by incorporating steps or recesses. - Achievable further thinning and weight reduction. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

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.
