In terms of forming, pressing and laminating applications, what are the applications of vacuum technology？

Vacuum forming, pressing and laminating are 3 common processes in many industries and manufacturing techniques.  Various materials can be combined or customized by these techniques.

Regarding vacuum forming, it is very important that the material is injected into the mold using a vacuum that meets the specific requirements. Thermal forming is a common process in product production, which can make plastic film forming. In the thermoforming process, the plastic film will be heated to become very soft. At the same time, fill the vacuum into the mould.With the help of vacuum,the heated and softened plastic film is placed into the mold. When the film turns cool, it will become the shape of the mold.This method can be used to manufacture packaging of food and other commodities, as well as preformed plastic shell of garden pond

Vacuum pressing process can be used in the wood industry. For instance, you want to paste several layers of wood together, however, due to their geometrical shape, they can only be applied for vacuum pressing instead of mechanical pressing. Moreover, vacuum technology can also be applied to paste or fix plywood or synthetic materials onto similar boards such as kitchen fronts.

Vacuum lamination is a process that combines multiple layers of materials and commonly used in the semiconductor and electronics industries. This is how solar panels, tablet screens and smartphone screens are made.

Application of vacuum technology in forming process：

Mould degassing, for production of rotor blades suitable for wind power plants

Thermoforming - production of packaging

Applications of vacuum technology in pressing process：

Pressing machine - using glue to stick composite board with furniture

Vacuum assisted resin transfer molding（VRTM）

Applications of vacuum technology in laminating process：

Flat panel display lamination

solar panel lamination
