Plastic thermoforming and molding

Thermoforming and plastic moulding

Cost-effective solutions for complex geometries in short, medium or long runs.

Specialists in thermoforming technical plastics

At Plásticos Ferplast, we have large- and small-format thermoforming equipment, enabling us to manufacture everything from prototypes to full production runs of parts. This plastic moulding process combines heat and vacuum to shape sheets of technical materials such as acrylic, PETG, polycarbonate, polyethylene or PVC.

Thermoforming stands out for its cost-effectiveness compared to other methods such as injection or extrusion, as the molds are more economical and manufacturing times are much faster. This makes it the ideal solution for projects requiring complex geometries, tight deadlines, and a perfect balance between quality and cost.

Process

Plastic thermoforming workflow

1

Feasibility study

We analyze the design and evaluate if plastic molding by thermoforming is the most efficient option for the project.

2

Material selection and mold design

We determine the most suitable technical plastic and prepare the mold or die to guarantee precision in the shape.

3

Plastic thermoforming

We heat the sheet until it becomes malleable and adapt it to the mold using pressure or vacuum. After cooling, the part retains its final shape.

4

Finishing and delivery

We apply the necessary finishes (polishing, trimming, drilling) and deliver the parts ready for assembly or use.

Frequently asked questions about plastic thermoforming and molding

It is a plastic molding process that consists of heating a sheet until it becomes malleable and adapting it to a mold using vacuum or pressure. Once cooled, the part retains its final shape.

Plastic thermoforming offers more economical molds than injection molding, fast production cycles, design flexibility, and less material waste, making it a very competitive method.

We manufacture everything from large-scale parts to components with complex geometries, such as housings, covers, displays, or trays, adapted to each sector.

Yes. One of the main advantages of plastic molding through thermoforming is that it is cost-effective for small and medium series thanks to the low mold cost.

Our plastic thermoforming processes are fast and flexible, with reduced lead times and the option for urgent 24-hour deliveries.
