Vacuum Forming
A Molding Technology That Securely Holds and Protects Products with a Precise Fit.
Vacuum forming is a technology that molds sheet-form plastic material by pressing it tightly against a mold. It allows trays and blister packaging that precisely fit the shape of a product to be manufactured at relatively low cost and short lead time.
Main Applications
- Inner trays for securing electronic devices and precision parts
- ESD-compliant trays for semiconductors and electronic components (conductive type / antistatic type)
- Blister packaging for cosmetics and daily necessities
- Food-grade tray containers
- Dedicated trays for prototypes and small-lot products
Wide Support for Electronics Packaging — Conductive, Antistatic, and Recycled Materials
For products requiring static protection, such as semiconductors and precision electronic components, packaging with conductive or antistatic trays is effective. Vacuum forming offers a wide range of available materials, and we can select the optimal material — from conductive and antistatic materials to environmentally friendly recycled PET — based on the product’s characteristics and your requirements.
The optimal material and design vary by product depending on weight, shape, storage environment, and transport conditions. Drawing on our extensive track record in vacuum forming, we propose everything from mold design to material selection from the ground up, ensuring the optimal design and material choice for your application.
Precise 3D-CAD Design Based on Your Product Data
Based on 3D data or physical measurement data of your product entrusted to us, we carry out precise mold design using 3D-CAD. Our strength lies in our ability to design and produce highly precise trays that fit product shapes without any gaps. We provide consistent support from design to production, from shape verification at the prototype stage through to development into mass-production molds.
Flexibility to Accommodate Small Lots
The relatively short lead time for mold production makes it easy to accommodate small-lot, high-mix production. We can also consult on material selection suited to your application, including clear or colored materials such as PET, PP, and PVC.
