Below is an explanation of the characteristics of thick plate thermoforming.
1. Definition of Thick Plate Thermoforming
Thick Plate Thermoforming Also known as thick sheet thermoforming, because the raw material thickness exceeds 2 mm, it cannot be thermoformed using fully automatic machinery and must be processed using a thick plate dedicated semi-automatic thermoforming machine.
2. Materials for Thick Plate Thermoforming
The materials mainly used for thick plate thermoforming are: various colors of ABS, acrylic, PETG, PVC, PC, PP, PE, PS, and various modified plastics such as flat plates, textured plates, and transparent plates.
3. Usefulness of Thick Plate Thermoforming
Thick Plate Thermoforming Molds can be used in the product design and manufacturing of television back covers, displays, medical equipment, textile machinery, automotive accessories, microelectronics, medical equipment, and cosmetics.
4. Thick Plate Thermoforming Products
Thick plate thermoforming products mainly include refrigerator inner liner thermoforming, PS thermoforming, ABS thermoforming, shell thermoforming, thermoformed shells, thick plate thermoforming, thick-walled thermoforming, PMMA thermoforming, etc. Our company's thick plate thermoforming products, including medical equipment, food equipment, instrument shells, and electrical appliances, are widely used in advertising light boxes, lighting, and refrigerators. Thick sheet thermoforming products can replace injection molding, saving valuable injection mold costs and replacing traditional manufacturing methods. The production process is exquisite, fast, and of high quality.
5. Production Technology and Process of Thick Plate Thermoforming
1. Mold Making and Processing: Different customer products have corresponding specifications, so plastic molds must be made before production. In this case, the molds are made of plastic mold gypsum. Using plastic molds, low-cost is gypsum type, followed by copper-plated type, and aluminum type is higher. When making molds, they should be naturally dried or dried, and processed according to the specific conditions of the product surface.
2. When the mold is completely dry, place the mold on the upper iron plate of the vacuum chamber, and then, according to the size of the mold, place the mold in the appropriate size, and then place the paper in the hot wooden box for fixed processing.
3. Place the softened plastic sheet and wooden cabinet in a vacuum, start the suction switch to suck the air in the vacuum chamber, and after the plastic sheet cools, the mold is formed.
4. Finishing: The finished product is trimmed and assembled into a product.
