2006年6月29日 · Heat the sheet slowly and evenly to about 450 F. Do not inject compressed air directly at the sheet, it will chill unevenly and cause an off-center dome. A baffle of some sort is required. Don't allow the sheet to touch anything that isn't preheated or the same off-center condition will occur.

Vacuum forming is a plastic manufacturing process that involves the controlled heating of a thermoplastic sheet material to an optimal temperature where its shape may be formed to a specific design with the use of a male mold. The change in the physical shape of the preheated thermoplastic is accomplished through vacuum force.

When you start to design your part imagine that you are draping a cloth or a sheet of paper over the part. This will give you a good idea of where the problems will be when forming, i.e. showing how the corners will pleat/web during forming. Tip! Understanding webbing. Take a cigarette packet and try forcing a sheet of paper over it.
