PRESSURE FORMING

Pressure Forming Technology

Pressure forming systems are an essential part of the FIM process.

These systems are available from a number of manufacturers and operate by a combination of pressure and heat to form plastic sheet or web over a mould tool.

Tool shapes can be complex and recent developments in thermoplastic materials and machine design have enabled much higher quality, higher volume parts to be produced.

This has been crucial in the evolution of the FIM process, enabling automotive, medical and telecomms components to be produced at low unit cost.

For more information on the process and machines available please follow the links on this page.

If you are a new supplier and would like your company information to be listed on the FIM portal please contact us
