| Custom Made Vacuum Formed Parts - Page 1 of 2 | |||
| In addition to standard
& adaptable parts, we can also
make custom made parts & other items custom made to your
design in both antistatic & non conductive materials. This involves heating & forming plastic sheets upto 6mm thick over an inexpensive wooden / aluminium tool & is suitable for uniform section, low quantity parts (10-5000). If you have an existing part, a resin cast tool could be made from it, saving you further time & money. |

| Features & options for custom made vacuum formed trays - stacking, access holes... | ||
| An area of vacuum forming often overlooked, is
the ability for parts to have built in features such as finger
access holes or the option for parts to stack on
top or nest inside each other. See below for examples
of these & the colours/flocking that trays can be made in
