Thermoforming Teflon® (Vacuum Forming)
Thermoforming is a generic term that encompasses a variety of methods for producing three-dimensional parts from flat sheets of film. With the knowledge of thin high performance films, combined with thermoforming expertise the results are impressive. Different configurations are possible to create complex shapes including the option of joining thermoformed parts via heat sealing.

Thermoformed Teflon® (Fluoropolymer) Solutions
Dielectric Properties – implantable medical device capacitor insulation
Temperature Resistancelabware including sampling apparatus covers, containers, and petri dishes
Chemical Inertness
– pump diaphragms and diaphragm liners provide corrosion resistance
Releaseability
– mold liners
Dry Lubrication – peristaltic pump rollers

Thermoforming has some unique advantages over other methods of processing plastics:
      - Low tooling costs
   
- Prototype speed
    - Parts with very small thickness to area ratios can be       fabricated.

Welch Fluorocarbon specializes in the traditional thermoforming techniques of drape forming and vacuum forming. When we combine or thermoforming expertise with our knowledge of thin high performance films, the results are impressive.

Welch Fluorocarbon, Inc. has years of experience in forming Teflon® FEP Film & Teflon® PFA Film, Aclar® & Clarus® PCTFE, Tefzel® ETFE, Kapton® PI, Norton® ECTFE from Halar® resin, PEEK, Ultem® PEI and Polysulfone PSU. Learn more...
