We support projects across industries like medical, aerospace, automotive, defense, and electronics using proven workflows and decades of experience in custom thermoforming solutions.
Step 1: Understand the Challenge
We begin by gathering all key input. This includes your part requirements, production needs, material specs, and quality expectations. Our team identifies opportunities to streamline production, reduce waste, and keep the project on track.
We aim to:
- Align with your goals
- Improve material efficiency
- Recommend cost-effective approaches
- Identify ways to reduce lead time and bypass revalidation
Step 2: Engineer the Solution
Our in-house team handles concept evaluation, refinement, and thermoforming tooling development. Rapid prototyping and user feedback help validate form and function before production begins.
Services may include:
- Conceptual input and feasibility analysis
- Turn-key prototyping
- Pressure forming or vacuum forming selection
- Part testing and revision cycles
- Engineering support for qualification and compliance
Step 3: Move to Production
Once approved, we transition to production with defined process controls and quality checkpoints. We identify inspection points, train operators, and validate all key parameters according to project requirements.
Production support includes:
- Equipment selection and setup
- In-process quality checks
- First Article Inspection
- Process validation (IQ, OQ, PQ, or PPAP, as needed)
- Safe handling and packaging protocols
