Vacuum Formed Trays: Effective Packaging

For creating packing trays quickly, effectively, and affordably, vacuum forming is one of the best methods to choose. The process involves heating, stretching, and vacuum forming plastic over mold. Quite naturally, it is one of the most preferred methods for making several 3D objects, including trays and custom coverings.

Why vacuum forming?

Several industries rely on vacuum forming as it is a streamlined method of manufacturing. In this process, a sheet of plastic is placed inside a vacuum forming equipment and heating it until it becomes soft. Thereafter the sheet is placed over a pre-made mold to make a contact. The vacuum removes air from the chamber and causes the plastic to become tight against the mold and assume its shape. One of the reasons for the popularity of vacuum trays that are made using vacuum forming method is the ease and consistency. Here is what you need to know.

• The manufacturing of vacuum formed trays includes low-cost tools when compared with injection mold tools.
• The process of manufacturing vacuum formed plastic trays includes several kinds of material options to form very thin parts.
• The stacking of trays that are made through vacuum forming create no load on several electronic components and parts.
• The cavities of the trays can be numbered for faster inspection, reducing the cost of tooling or the price per piece.
• It is easy to create custom-made cavities for matching and protecting the sensitive areas.
• For packaging fragile items, the formation of clearance activities prevents contact during the process of shipping.
