Power Drape Forming

Drape Forming is the very earliest form of thermoforming. We begin this forming process by heating the plastic sheet to a malleable state, at which point we “drape” it over a mold. Rather than pressure, gravity is what shapes the plastic to the mold, which allows for very little detail. Even though this is not one of the more widely used plastic forming processes, it absolutely remains the perfect thermoforming process for a variety of plastic thermoforming projects.
