Use PETG ! Some PLA+ will work too (check the specs). A couple extra perimeter layers and infill also doesn't hurt. It depends what type of material you are thermoforming as well since there is the temp range.
@@AustenHartley Thanks! Yeah I use PLA+ and 15% infill and it still melts :( I’ll definitely pick up some PETG. I primarily vacuum form with Styrene, anything I need to know specifically about temp settings?
@@berkaltinkopru1362 Yeah go PETG and boost that infill ! 15% is probably not nearly enough. Extra perimeters will also be a big help. It obviously depends on the geometry of the part but I would say 30-40% fill and 4 perimeters in PETG should work without deformation
Its basically a heat map on top to heat the plastic sheet, 2 Z axes, a stainless steel perfored sheet, a spring and a vaacum outlet, pretty overpriced imo
I’ve been waiting for a vid like this. 🔥
Did you see layer lines in your thermoformed molds?
And what is the cost of one of these?
$1,150.00

Could this work using cup that is 4.75 inches tall? I’m trying to replicate a custom shape coffee cup from a 3D print.
🔥💕😍👍
Does anyone know where I could get red/blue flocked forming sheets? Particularly the ones with the felt/velvet on one side.
Compatible with pet? I've never liked working with styrene, smells awful
Hi! Thanks for sharing, could you show the machine in more detail? I found it very pretty!!
I saw a bigger one than this machine on amazon
What's the link please? ... I can't find anything like it anywhere.
Hi
Which 3d printer are you using
If you pour hot candle in that mold, won't it melt???
No because its glass transition temperature is 100
Needed this !!
Quick question, when I 3D printed a mold out of PLA it basically melted when attempting to vacuum form. How did you get by this?

@@AustenHartley Awesome! Now, when you say “Perimeter” what’re you referring to?
@@berkaltinkopru1362 Oh like the top layers, bottom layers, and side layers. Depends what slicer you're using. Perimeters, shells, etc haha
