Vacuum Former - Desktop Thermoforming Machine

[@jaxnad5077]

I’ve been waiting for a vid like this. 🔥

[@Empress969]

Needed this !!

[@rociosanmartin5368]

Hi! Thanks for sharing, could you show the machine in more detail? I found it very pretty!!

Which 3d printer are you using

[@zacharyziegler753]

Does anyone know where I could get red/blue flocked forming sheets? Particularly the ones with the felt/velvet on one side.

[@mpark0]

Did you see layer lines in your thermoformed molds?

[@mitasmight3121]

Could this work using cup that is 4.75 inches tall? I’m trying to replicate a custom shape coffee cup from a 3D print.

And what is the cost of one of these?

[@kevinwarner959]

$1,150.00

Quick question, when I 3D printed a mold out of PLA it basically melted when attempting to vacuum form. How did you get by this?

[@AustenHartley]

Use PETG ! Some PLA+ will work too (check the specs). A couple extra perimeter layers and infill also doesn't hurt. It depends what type of material you are thermoforming as well since there is the temp range.

[@berkaltinkopru1362]

@@AustenHartley Thanks! Yeah I use PLA+ and 15% infill and it still melts :( I’ll definitely pick up some PETG. I primarily vacuum form with Styrene, anything I need to know specifically about temp settings?

[@AustenHartley]

@@berkaltinkopru1362 Yeah go PETG and boost that infill ! 15% is probably not nearly enough. Extra perimeters will also be a big help. It obviously depends on the geometry of the part but I would say 30-40% fill and 4 perimeters in PETG should work without deformation

[@berkaltinkopru1362]

@@AustenHartley Awesome! Now, when you say “Perimeter” what’re you referring to?

[@AustenHartley]

@@berkaltinkopru1362 Oh like the top layers, bottom layers, and side layers. Depends what slicer you're using. Perimeters, shells, etc haha

[@gpapazac]

If you pour hot candle in that mold, won't it melt???

[@smorrow]

No because its glass transition temperature is 100

I love how these are impossible to buy from anywhere reputable.

Hi

[@TantalusWolfram]

Compatible with pet? I've never liked working with styrene, smells awful

[@yangyedda8092]

I saw a bigger one than this machine on amazon

[@ljadf]

What's the link please? ... I can't find anything like it anywhere.

[@surronzak8154]

Its basically a heat map on top to heat the plastic sheet, 2 Z axes, a stainless steel perfored sheet, a spring and a vaacum outlet, pretty overpriced imo
