  Ajax offers a wide range of thermoforming capabilities to serve our customers' needs, be it a thin gauge packaging part, a stylish and crisply detailed cover, or a heavy-duty large panel.

Ajax possesses in-house manufacturing capabilities to satisfy the entire product development process including mold and tool-making and state-of-art CAD-CAM programming.

In addition to traditional sheet thermoforming capabilities and to better serve our customers, we also offer injection and RIM molding capabilities in our Low Cost Region facilities.

 

Process Basics
Plastic sheet thermoforming is a simple process of applying heat to plastic sheets until pliable, and then forming them into the desired mold shape by using vacuum, pressure, gravity, and mechanical aides.

Today, with improved techniques, variations and technological advancements, the sheet thermoforming process is capable of providing high quality products while remaining the low-cost rapid turnover solution for plastic products. Lightweight thermoformed plastic products are also a viable substitute for heavier metal products. Parts with sophisticated shapes, tight tolerances, cosmetic or unique material property requirements can be manufactured to meet all our customers' needs.
