THERMOFORMING

Thermoforming
Adalah : suatu proses yg digunakan utk membentuk
thermoplastic sheet dimana sheet
dipanaskan & kemudian ditekan dalam
suatu mold
 Prinsip Dasar
Memberikan pemanasan sebuah thermoplastic sheet
sampai lunak dan kemudian menekan material panas
& lunak tersebut pada kontur mold secara mekanik,
tekanan udara atau tekanan vakum.
Diberikan penahanan pd mold & didinginkan, shg
plastik akan membentuk sesuai dg kontur mold

Perbedaan utama proses thermoforming dg proses

lain :
- material thermoplastik dipanaskan tidak sampai
mencair, hanya sampai kondisi lunak
- tekanan yg digunakan utk membentuk rendah

 Proses Thermoforming
Vacuum Forming
Merupakan proses termoforming yg paling sederhana
& umum

Proses meliputi pemanasan plastic sheet sampai lunak

dan kmd diletakkan diatas mold.
Tekanan vakum diberikan untuk menghisap sheet pada
mold.
Produk didinginkan & dikeluarkan dari mold.
 Proses
Clamping
The clamp frame ensures the plastic sheet is held firmly
in place during the forming process.

Heating
Radiant heaters are normally used to heat the sheet
which has been positioned over the aperture of the
vacuum forming machine. For thicker sheet both
surfaces may need to be heated and more sophisticated
machines allow this. Heaters move into position both
above and below the sheet.

Pre-stretch
Is used to achieve "even" wall thickness. Air is
introduced to blow a small "bubble" and the mould is
then raised into the pre-stretched sheet.
