We are thrilled to welcome two colleagues from the USA this week.

Alex & Kenneth are with us for a week visiting the UK HQ, factory and customers. And while they were at our factory, they were able to review a special TF686 bound for a USA client.

As interest in #3Dprinting continues to grow, so have the questions. We regularly receive enquiries from customers excited to use their 3D printers to create vacuum forming tooling, but are unsure of the best practices. So we've got something to help... 1/2

Standard #vacuumforming machines don't always meet every need. That's why Formech designs custom solutions based on modifications to our existing models.

Whether you're facing complex applications or bringing vacuum forming in-house, we're here to help.

Really interesting use of #VacuumForming by Power Roll to create their solar film, which is less than a millimetre thick & 25 times lighter than the lightest silicon panels. They're working with Queen Mary Uni of London on optical analysis tech for quality control & R&D #RenewableEnergy #Innovation
