HOW DOES VACUUM FORMING WORK?
1) The heater first warms up the thermoplastic so that it is flexible.
2) The Plate pushes the mold up and into the thermoplastic.
3) The vacuum draws all of the air out sucking the thermoplastic around the mood.
4) Thermoplastic cools down to hold its new formed shape.
