With the development of technology, thermoforming processing technology is also becoming increasingly mature, driving the use of plastic sheet thermoforming products. Therefore, ABS sheet also ushered in spring, ABS thermoforming It is used in the manufacturing of car logos, advertising signs, plastic light boxes, etc. Today, let's talk about ABS thermoforming the process.

ABS thermoforming The production process is as follows:

Sheet processing - Cutting - Sheet fixing - Heating - Forming - Demolding - Removing burrs - Finished product

Since ABS plastic processing itself must be formed under specific conditions, therefore, for successful ABS thermoforming, there are requirements for plastic forming, as follows.

1.ABS Thermoforming can only produce products with relatively uniform wall thickness and cannot produce plastic products with large differences in wall thickness.

2.ABS The wall thickness of thermoformed products is usually in the range of 1 ~ 2mm, or even thinner.

3.ABS The stretchability of thermoformed products is limited. The diameter and depth of thermoformed plastic containers cannot exceed 1, and in extreme cases, cannot exceed 1.5.

4.ABS The dimensional accuracy of thermoforming is poor, and the relative error is generally more than 1%.

ABS thermoforming Production process:

1. Sheet processing

The ABS sheet must be processed at high temperature in advance. If the water vapor in the sheet is not evaporated, many bubbles may appear in the thermoformed product.

2. Cutting

ABS thermoforming The entire ABS sheet must be cut appropriately according to the customer's requirements for product size to make the product raw materials reasonable and reduce production costs.

3. Sheet fixing + Heating + Forming + Demolding:

ABS Thermoforming uses a semi-automatic plastic suction device to fix the ABS sheet, then drags it to the oven of the thermoforming machine for softening and heating. The heat is pulled to the top of the product mold, and the mold is moved upward to release the vacuum, sucking the softened ABS sheet to the surface of the mold. When waiting for cooling and forming, the coolant is sprayed onto the surface of the mold sheet to solidify it, and then demolding is performed. The ABS thermoforming is basically formed.

The formed ABS thermoformed products are widely used in electronics, electrical appliances, food, hardware tools, cosmetics, toys, medicine, automobiles, stationery and other industries.
