Yuming Plastic Mold offers vacuum forming (thermoforming) for large, thin-walled plastic parts — trays, enclosures, machine covers, and automotive interior panels. Low tooling cost and fast turnaround make it ideal for prototypes and short runs.
Step-by-step process from design to finished product.
Mold design based on part geometry, including draft angles and vent holes.
Plastic sheet heated to forming temperature in infrared oven.
Heated sheet drawn over mold by vacuum pressure for precise shape.
CNC trimming, secondary operations, and quality inspection.
Door panels, dashboard covers, seat back panels, and interior trim for passenger and commercial vehicles.
Blister packs, clamshell packaging, product display trays, and shipping inserts for retail and industrial packaging.
Machine covers, equipment housings, medical device enclosures, and electronics covers for industrial and medical equipment.
Common thermoplastics used in vacuum forming applications.
Excellent impact resistance and toughness. Ideal for automotive interior parts, luggage, and protective cases.
Chemical resistant and durable. Common for chemical tanks, containers, and outdoor applications.
Good chemical resistance and flame retardant. Used for medical trays, equipment housings, and signage.
Clear transparency and excellent formability. Perfect for retail displays, packaging, and medical devices.
Cost-effective with good rigidity. Used for food packaging, disposable trays, and light fixtures.
High optical clarity and UV resistance. Ideal for skylights, light covers, and display cases.
Different forming methods for varying part complexity and detail requirements.
Sheet heated and drawn over a single mold by vacuum. Most common and cost-effective method for large, simple shapes.
Compressed air applied on top of the heated sheet for sharper detail, tighter radii, and textured surfaces — approaching injection molding quality.
Two sheets formed simultaneously and joined — creates hollow, double-walled parts like pallets, tanks, and structural components.
Simple bending of heated sheet over a form — used for flat curves, windshields, and simple radius bends without full vacuum.
Glossy or matte flat surface
Leather grain, stipple, geometric
Custom color painting & finishing
Conductive coating for electronics
Post-forming processes for finished vacuum-formed parts.
5-axis CNC routing for precise trimming of formed parts to final dimensions and cutouts.
Bonding formed parts to sub-assemblies, adding inserts, fasteners, and hardware.
Custom painting, silk screening of logos and labels, and decorative finishes on formed parts.
Aluminum or wood molds start at $300, significantly cheaper than injection molding tooling.
Prototype molds in 3-5 days, production parts delivered within 2 weeks.
Form parts up to 2m x 1.5m, ideal for automotive interiors, enclosures, and signage.
ISO 9001 certified factory with strict quality control and inspection processes.
Wide range of thermoplastics: ABS, HDPE, PP, PET, PVC, HIPS, and specialty materials.
Free DFM review and design optimization to ensure manufacturability and cost efficiency.
Large parts, low tooling cost, fast turnaround — from prototype to production.
