• Plastics are the commonest materials to produce
  parts for end-use as well as various products for
  each and everything. All of these include
  everything from medical devices to consumer
  products. They are versatile material category
  with many options of polymers, each with unique
  mechanical properties specifically. Processes of
  plastic manufacturing got developed for covering
  wide category of applications as well as part
  geometries.

Process

• Material - Have you ever imagined as to what
  strains and stresses will the product you produce
  needs to stand up towards? Optimal material meant
  for any application given is usually determined
  by many factors. In Vacuum moulding plastic cost
  has to be balanced against aesthetic and
  functional requirements. Consider ideal
  characteristics for the specific application and
  have them contrasted with choices available in
  manufacturing processes given.

Lead Time
How quickly does one need the parts to be
produced? Some of the processes create the first
parts within a day, while setup and tooling for
certain production processes of high volume can
take months. This is not what happens in case of
a proper Vacuum moulding plastic procedure.

Multitude of input materials for the mould
Cost/Volume
What is annual or total volume if the parts that
are being planned for manufacturing? Some of the
processes of manufacturing having high
front-costs for setup and tooling actually
produce inexpensive parts on per-part basis. In
contrast, processes of low volume have lower
startup costs but because of slower times of
cycle, manual labor and less automation, per part
cost decreases of remains constant, only
marginally when the volume increases.

Form
Do all parts produced by you have requirements of
tight tolerance or complex features internally?
Depending on the designs geometry, options of
manufacturing may be quite limited. Thus, they
may also require DFM optimization significantly.
DFM means designs for the manufacturing. The DFM
makes production economical.

CNC Machining
This method involves subtractive processes that
are computer-controlled, lathes and mills. Unlike
other processes CNC machining has been tagged as
a process that is subtractive and where the
material is removed by fixed milling part, a tool
for spinning and a part for spinning with fixed
tool (lathe). This process has moderate to low
costs for set up and is capable of producing
plastic components of high quality.
8
Three-dimensional Printing
Three-dimensional printers can create three
dimensional parts from the computer aided design
models by having material built layer-by-layer
until physical parts have been completely formed.
These printers never need any minimal time for
setup or tooling for new designs and used for
large-scale production. Various kinds of printing
technologies involve modeling of fused
deposition, stereo lithography and selective
sintering through lasers.
