Pressure Thermoforming

Pressure thermoforming is a manufacturing process used to shape plastic sheets into specific forms. It involves heating a plastic sheet until it becomes soft and pliable, then placing it over a mold. High-pressure air is introduced or a matching plug presses the softened plastic tightly against the mold, ensuring accurate reproduction of details and smooth surfaces. Once cooled, the formed plastic is removed from the mold, resulting in a precise, durable part. This method is commonly used to produce packaging, trays, and panels, offering high-quality finishes and complex shapes in an efficient manner.
