Types of Vaccuum Forming Molds We Offer
What is Vacuum Forming Mold?
Vacuum forming mold is used in a thermoforming process where a hot plastic sheet is pulled over a mold and shaped by vacuum pressure. This method is simple, efficient, and widely used in packaging, food trays, medical blister packs, and lightweight covers. The main strengths are low tooling cost, fast turnaround, and good flexibility for design changes. Compared with other molding methods, vacuum forming is more suitable for small and medium production, especially for large but relatively simple parts. However, it cannot match the fine detail or mechanical strength of injection molded parts, and it is less suitable for highly complex shapes.
Comparison: Vacuum Forming vs. Other Molding Methods
| Aspect | 真空成形 | 射出成形 | ブロー成形 | 圧縮成形 | 回転成形 | Extrusion Molding |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ツールコスト | 低い | Very high | 中くらい | 中くらい | 中くらい | 中くらい |
| リードタイム | Short (days–weeks) | Long (weeks–months) | 中くらい | 中くらい | Medium–long | Short |
| 生産量 | Small–medium runs | 大量実行 | Medium–large | Medium–large | Small–medium | Continuous |
| 設計の柔軟性 | Easy, low cost to modify | Hard, expensive to change | Limited | 適度 | Good for hollow parts | Limited |
| Best for Part Size | Large, thin parts (e.g., trays, covers) | Small–medium precise parts | Hollow bottles, containers | Solid parts under pressure/heat | Large hollow parts | Long profiles, sheets, pipes |
| Surface Detail | 適度 | 高い | 適度 | 適度 | Low–moderate | 低い |
| Part Strength | Light, less durable | Strong, durable | 中くらい | 高い | 中くらい | 中くらい |
| Material Efficiency | Good, less waste | Higher waste | 良い | 良い | 良い | Very high (continuous use) |
