Twinsheet Forming

Kintz Plastics specializes in twinsheet thermoforming. Our expertise helps our customers create more durable, more attractive and more affordable products.

APPLICATIONS:
Twin-sheet thermoforming produces a double-sided, hollow panel with features on both sides of the exterior to create multi-dimensional housings and enclosures, strong yet lightweight, as housings for hardware and components, pockets or enclosures or panels that require thermal or acoustic insulation.

CAPABILITIES:
Twin-sheet thermoforming can replace two processes with one, save time and labor, produce a seamless part and create a stronger structure so you end up with a lighter, cheaper component.

ABOUT RESINS:
Kintz's engineering department works with a wide range of plastics and extruders. The appropriate plastic for a part can be determined by looking at performance and appearance factors.

• Rigid or flexible
• Appearance
• Cost
• Finish Options
• Conductivity
• Compatibility
• Weight

HOW IT WORKS:
The top sheet is drawn into the top mold and the bottom sheet is drawn into the bottom mold. The two molds are pressure welded together at designated points around the perimeter.
