Special features of thermoforming technology


Thermoforming is a proven process that is characterised by high process reliability. It is particularly cost-efficient and ideal for medium quantities.

The short development times mean that products can be brought to market quickly.

We utilise state-of-the-art technology, which enables us to guarantee the high surface quality of the components produced. We also attach great importance to sustainability by using environmentally friendly materials. All thermoformed parts - production waste and components - are 100% recyclable.

PERFECTLY COORDINATED PRODUCTION PROCESSES

Thermoforming in real life

At the BMW Group, sustainability and resource conservation are moving centre stage.

In close cooperation, new materials were sought in order to make existing car boot mats more sustainable.

Thermoforming continues to be used in production in order to fulfil customer requirements as usual.

FAQ about Thermoforming

Thermoforming is often used to produce single-shell cladding parts. The technology is particularly suitable for large components.

  • Which products are manufactured by thermoforming?
    Thermoforming is often used to produce single-shell cladding parts. The technology is particularly suitable for large components.
  • Which tools are used for thermoforming plastics?
    Temperature-controlled aluminium tools are used for plastics thermoforming. Only one half of the mould is used for forming. This means that the mould costs are lower compared to other technologies.
  • Which plastics can be thermoformed?
    Theoretically, all thermoplastics can be thermoformed, for example ABS, PC, PP, PE, PS.
