Industrial Drying Ovens
for pre-drying plastics Before Vacuum Forming
Belovac Industrial Drying Ovens are designed to efficiently pre-dry plastics before vacuum forming, ensuring optimal material performance. These high-performance ovens provide uniform heat distribution to remove moisture from plastic sheets, preventing defects during the forming process. With precise temperature control and reliable, energy-efficient operation, Belovac drying ovens enhance the quality of thermoformed parts by eliminating hygrosopic caused surface blemishes and improving consistency. Ideal for high-volume production environments, our ovens are built for durability and ease of use, making them a vital part of the pre-forming process for industries requiring flawless vacuum-formed products.
Frequently Asked Questions
An industrial vacuum forming machine is a type of thermoforming equipment that falls under the broader category of industrial thermoforming machines. These machines shape plastic sheets by heating them and using vacuum pressure to mold them over a pre-designed mold. The heated plastic becomes soft and pliable, and a vacuum is applied to draw the plastic tightly around the mold, forming the desired shape.
These machines are available in a range of sizes—from compact tabletop models for small-run prototyping to large-format systems designed for high-volume, oversized parts. Smaller machines like the BV C-Class 24″ x 48″ are ideal for precision and flexibility in low-quantity production, while large-format machines are built for heavy-duty manufacturing of big components used in industrial and commercial applications.
Industrial vacuum forming machines can produce a wide variety of parts across multiple industries. Commonly formed items include packaging trays, automotive interior panels, medical device enclosures, food containers, retail display components, hot tub shells, signage backings, and protective covers. The process is well-suited for creating durable and lightweight plastic components with consistent repeatability.
An industrial vacuum forming machine can handle various thermoplastic materials, including PVC, ABS, acrylic (PMMA), polycarbonate (PC), polystyrene (PS), and polyethylene (PE). The choice of material depends on the specific requirements of the part being produced, such as strength, flexibility, and transparency.
Industrial vacuum forming machines are a type of industrial thermoforming equipment widely used across multiple industries, including
automotive manufacturing, packaging, consumer electronics, medical devices, and retail.
These machines are ideal for producing durable, lightweight, and cost-effective plastic parts such as trays, clamshell packaging, and car interior panels.
Common Applications Include:
The plastic sheets used in an industrial vacuum forming machine typically range from 0.5 mm to 6 mm in thickness, depending on the application. Thicker sheets may require adjustments in heating and vacuum pressure to achieve optimal forming results.
Industrial vacuum forming machines are highly versatile and can accommodate both small batch prototyping and large-scale production runs. Whether you’re working with a compact unit like the BV C-Class 24″ x 48″ for precise, small-run applications, or a larger system such as those featured in the Large Format Machines lineup for high-volume manufacturing, these machines offer the flexibility needed across various production requirements. Their ability to scale production efficiently makes them a cost-effective solution for diverse industrial needs.
While industrial vacuum forming machines are a type of industrial thermoforming machines excellent for producing moderately complex shapes, they are best suited for shallow to moderately deep molds. For very intricate or deep designs, other molding methods might be more suitable, but vacuum forming can still achieve relatively detailed shapes for many applications.
To ensure optimal performance, regular maintenance of an industrial vacuum forming machine includes cleaning the heating elements, inspecting the vacuum system for leaks, checking the molds for wear, and lubricating moving parts. Proper maintenance extends the machine’s lifespan and helps maintain consistent product quality.
