What is Thermoforming?
Thermoforming is a plastic molding technique that results in a variety of usable products. During this manufacturing process, thin plastic sheets are heated in order to make them easy to manipulate. Once a sheet reaches a pliable temperature, it is formed over a male or female mold.
Benefits of Thermoforming
In addition to being cost-effective compared to injection molding, there are a wealth of benefits to thermoforming, including:
- Quick production time
- Economical for shorter-run projects
- Aesthetic packaging
- Functional use for the consumer
- Easy to make part changes
