We manufacture this power line guard using Vacuum Forming with compression molding. This is used to prevent birds, raptors, squirrels, etc. from short circuiting power lines, causing power outages, potential fires, as well as death of our wildlife. The part is made from a special polymer that is highly UV resistant and flame retardant. Additionally, … Read more
This interior transfer tray is manufactured using the Pressure Forming process to a negative mold. The tray is designed to extremely tight tolerances (+/- .002) to prevent any movement of cylinders during transfer.
We Pressure Formed these automated handwashing stations for our customer, Meritech. Meritech developed these hand sanitizing systems, which have been clinically proven to remove more that 99.9% of harmful pathogens. The process takes approximately 12 seconds, and uses 75% less water than a traditional sink. Initially, we decided that the pressure forming was the appropriate process … Read more
We chose the Twin Sheet forming process to form this door for a robotic tape library for Quantum. See the iScalar 6000 series here. When the project began, volumes were relatively small. Due to small volumes, the customer decided to go with the Reaction-Injection Molding process to minimize tooling costs. The Reaction-Injection process has a … Read more
Pressure Formed Surgical Imaging Technology To begin, ATI chose the pressure forming process to custom thermoform the parts for GE Healthcare’s OEC Elite Miniview C-arm. Importantly, we are able to yield sharp radii where the various parts fit together, using the pressure forming process. Next, we used multi-part assembly to form the completed part. This part requires a variety … Read more
Vacuum Formed Beverage Dispensing System for Coke We have constructed this sleek, award winning product using the vacuum forming process. This is a multi-part beverage dispensing system, which we produce for Coke. Coke employs LED touch technology for the dispensing choices. To construct this system, we have assembled three vacuum-formed parts made from metallic silver decorative sheet. … Read more
Vacuum Molding Process Used For American Airlines This part for American Airlines’ baggage handling trolleys was manufactured by ATI using the Vacuum Molding process. Additionally, we employed Design For Manufacturing to avoid potential problems later in the process. A challenging part due to size and material used, this project exemplified good use of DFM. Beginning early in the process, we … Read more
Vacuum Forming Process Used to Manufacture Seat Pan Insert We thermoformed this seat pan insert for the Aerospace Industry using the Vacuum Forming Process. To form this part we used an engineered resin, Lexan F6000. Thus, we had much the same processing requirements as for the Radel® material used in the Shroud Headrest part. Next, we form this part … Read more
Pressure Forming Process Used for Shroud Headrest This part is made from a Radel® resin which is a polyphenylsulfone material. Radel’s properties include very high impact and chemical resistance in addition to the toxicity properties stated above. Because of the physical properties of the sheet, the processing temperatures are very high, requiring the sheet to … Read more
Vacuum Formed Parts Used In Transportation Industry We assemble this Lavatory Door using two vacuum formed parts, attached together with adhesive. In addition, during that assembly process, an aluminum strike plate is inserted into the structure for mounting the hinge. Finally, we fill the entire assembly with a 2-part urethane foam for strength and sound deadening. We face an … Read more
