Thermoforming is a technique whereby a flat sheet of plastic is changed into a three-dimensional object with the use of heat. However, there are a lot of problems that can occur during this process and this book will provide thermoformers and part designers with an insight into the problems that can occur during the production of a product explain why problems happen and how to prevent them. Problems can be classified as uneven shapes, blisters or bubbles, poor detail, incomplete forming, sagging (excessive sheet sag, uneven sag), webbing, stretch marks, poor wall distribution, tearing the plastic sheet when forming, part sticking to the mould, part warpage, surface marking, uneven edges, raised corners, and cracking in corners. Also discussed are the different types of surface defects, their identification in plastic parts and the ways to solve the problem. All these problems and their remedies are covered in detail in this book. This book will be of use to those producing thermoformed items whether they are experienced thermoformers or new to the technique, and to designers, designing items which will be produced by thermoforming.

Thermoforming is one of the most common methods of processing plastics. It is extensively used by the packaging industry to produce disposable containers from blister packs for pharmaceuticals and electronics to microwavable food trays.There are many potential sources for problems in thermoforming and it is often hard to recognise the source of the problem to trouble shoot.This book provides an insight into the problems occurring during production and offers detailed remedies in terms of the sheet to be thermoformed and its basic compound. It examines the different types of surface defects, how to identify them and ways to resolve them.This book will prove constructive reading to all those involved in the processing of plastics and wanting to remedy their thermoforming problems.
