Custom Plastic Thermoforming Manufacturing in South Carolina
Thermoforming is an advanced technique in which plastic is molded in order to make various tools and appliances ranging in size and structure. The thermoforming process continues to grow, constantly adding to the arsenal of applications of which it can be used. There are numerous uses for heavy gauge thermoforming.
The growing need for artistic and aesthetically pleasing designs built into tools and car parts today calls for the precision and technique that comes with the thermoforming process.
Vacuum Forming Custom Plastics for South Carolina Companies
Vacuum Forming is one of the simpler methods to thermoforming which excels in the molding of transparent material such as acrylic. This process allows for plastic sheets to be heated to a temperature that makes them flexible but also durable. Flexible enough to be molded but durable enough to not be damaged when the vacuum removes the air between the heated plastic and the mold.
Vacuum forming has been proven to provide quick product development. Another benefit that comes with this process is that it makes it easier to mold larger plastic equipment.
The transparent materials used in vacuum forming are beneficial for replacing complex materials like fiberglass. In addition, this thermoforming process is a great method for recyclable material and creating various patterns.
Twin-Sheet Forming
Twin-Sheet thermoforming gets its name from the fact that it takes dueling sides of the product and molds them together to create a whole. Being one of the more advanced thermoforming systems, twin-sheet forming allows for complex materials to be made. Since this process is able to control both sides of the mold separately, hollow structures can be formed. Twin forming allows for more fluidity of what can be molded. This creates space for a more versatile spectrum of shapes that can be constructed, such as durable equipment with vacant centers.
Twin-Sheet thermoforming excels when it comes to creating opposite sides of a structure. Thermoformed products that are made using twin forming are foam-filled products, air ducts, and equipment with dual textures and colors.
Pressure Forming Plastics for SC Manufacturers
Pressure Forming is the process of molding plastic sheet material into detailed shapes and structures. This thermoforming process is known for delivering tight detail, custom colors, and smooth textures. Pressure formed products are able to stand up and even exceed the aesthetic detail of other thermoforming processes. In addition, pressure forming also excels in creating recreational and medical equipment.
