Whether it’s a drone or a jumbo jet, vacuum forming is helping shape the future of flight. Check out our latest blog post to see how it's taking aerospace to new heights: buff.ly/7nGYTSL #DroneTech #Engineering #IndustrialDesign #Manufacturing #Aviation #TechInnovation

Why #aerospace manufacturers love it: 🔹 Extreme weight savings for better range. 🔹 Lower tooling costs than injection moulding. 🔹 Rapid design iterations. 🔹 High-performance polymers (like Kydex and Ultem) built for safety. /2

Did you know that #vacuumforming is responsible for many of the touchpoints you see in a commercial cabin? From window reveals to protective sensor housings, thermoforming is the secret to lightweight, high-strength aerospace design. /1

Investing in a new Formech machine isn't just about replacing old equipment; it's about investing in the future of your production, boosting profitability, and staying ahead of the competition. Read why: buff.ly/dVL3TAv #vacuumforming #manufacturing #industry (2/2)

If you’re relying on a vacuum forming machine from the last century, now might be the perfect time to consider an upgrade. (1/2)

We are thrilled to welcome two colleagues from the USA this week. Alex & Kenneth are with us for a week visiting the UK HQ, the factory & customers. At our factory, they were able to review a special TF686 bound for a USA client. #vacuumforming #thermoforming #UK #USA #WorkTrip

We couldn't bring Alex and Kenneth to St Albans without a visit to Ye Olde Fighting Cocks, reputably the oldest pub in the UK - dating from 793AD! #StAlbans #Pub #Hertfordshire #UK

In combination with special filler mixtures, they develop user-friendly systems used in many mould making areas of #thermoplastic & #thermoset processing, and in the #ceramics industry. Our Head of Sales in Germany, Jeannine Wolf, met with Dr. Nadin Dirkmorfeld, CEO of ALWA.

We caught up with ALWA, a customer with our Compac Mini desktop vacuum forming machine -with a reel-feed holder- on their stand! ALWA is a specialist in the development, production and distribution of synthetic resin systems, primarily for model and mould making.

The 508DT Desktop Vacuum Forming machine

It's been created to save time and cost when creating tooling. Its porosity means its perfect for #thermoforming &#vacuumforming machines. Eschmann Textures use our 508DT desktop vacuum forming machine for research and development. #K2025 #KShow2025 #KShow #EschmannTextures
