A manually operated vacuum forming machine that can produce industrial-grade plastic moldings while being compact enough to fit on a desktop and Machines-3D strives to offer an ever more disruptive and accessible solutions to help complete fab lab. In addition to 3D printers, 3D scanners, and many consumables.
This innovation is what truly distinguishes Vaquform from all other the formers that came before it. Like an industrial vacuum pump, the hybrid vacuum is capable of high airflow and air pressure. But unlike an industrial pump, the system is light and small enough to be integrated within the machine itself.
When a material is heated, it goes through several phases before it becomes ready to be formed. Because each material is different, Vaquform heats each material differently, and dynamically. Power is increased or decreased as needed, so materials are always heated to an exact temperature.
Dynamic heating relies on real-time temperature data steaming from Vaquform's medical-grade IR sensor. With an accuracy of 0.1 degree Celsius, it checks material temperature, 10 times per second. It literally keeps an eye on things, so you can relax. Vaquform will let you know when it's time to pull the handlebar.
A patent-pending system that combines high airflow and vacuum, speed and power.
The built-in process controls and ergonomic design make forming effortless.
Regulated by sensors, the industrial grade ceramic heaters ensure consistent and safe heating of plastic sheets.
Customize the temperature (up to 1°) and vacuum power needed for each pull.
