[Mitarepo] Thin-walled shapes through vacuum forming with combinations! I tried creating a transparent bottle by vacuum forming from a Form4L resin mold! | System Create
"Mitarepo" is a series that introduces what can be done using various products, based on the concept of "I tried doing this!" We deliver useful information each time from the wide range of product genres handled by System Create. 3D printers have undergone remarkable evolution, making it easier to create high-quality models without post-processing. While it has become possible to create various types of shapes, it is also true that there are models and shapes that are challenging... Thin-walled shapes are one of them. However, this might be overcome by combining it with another product... So this time, we created a mold using the light-curing 3D printer "Form 4L" and used the vacuum forming machine "Vaquform" to create a thin-walled transparent bottle! "Can a 3D printed mold withstand the pulling process?" "What about concerns like distortion?" We will introduce these points of interest along with the process of 3D printing the mold, the flow of vacuum forming, and the actual finished product. *You can download the materials from the button below.
