Vacuum Forming
|
|
We at E & T have always been a leader in vacuum forming, and with our in-house toolmaking facilities, we can assist you from the design stage through prototyping and production. Using both rotary and single station equipment, we are able to produce parts up to 4' x 8' and in a large variety of materials from simple Polystyrene, ABS, Acrylics, PETG and Polycarbonate to exotic materials such as fire retardant and low smoke materials for the transportation industry.
The use of pressure forming can create the parts that appear to have been injection molded, but without the high tooling costs and long lead times of injection molding.
