Thermoforming

Thermoforming is a manufacturing process used to shape plastic sheets into specific forms. It involves heating a sheet of plastic until it becomes flexible, then draping it over a mold. The heated plastic is pressed against the mold to take its shape, often using vacuum or pressure. Once it cools down, it retains the new shape. This process is commonly used to create items like packaging, containers, and automotive parts, offering an efficient way to produce large quantities of customized products with precision.
