Processing Flow Chart

After ABS& HIPS Sheet are loaded and unloaded manually, the working procedure including clamping, heating, forming, cooling and holding down shall be performed at the same station.

The detailed process is as follows:

1. Manually Placing Sheet for forming on the workbench of a forming machine

2. the hydraulic cylinder drives the swaging frame to move downwards and press against the sheet material

3. the heating plate moves forward to heat the sheet material

4. the heating plate retreats to original place after completion of heating

5. bubbling (blowing for a half arc as a bubble)

6. Vacuum Forming Mold goes upward in place

7. Vacuuming Supply to absorb heated sheet materials to the surface of Vacuum Forming Mold

8. Upper Pressing Frame goes downward for assisting forming (stamping, manual cutting, if this is necessary)

9. Cooling Fan Blow Wind onto the Surface of Inner Liner Outside for Cooling and Forming

10. Upper Frame goes upward

11. De-molding

12. Vacuum Forming Mold Come Down to Original Position

13. The swaging frame goes upward to Original Place

14. Manually Removing the Finished Inner Liner from Machine and then for next Circle of Production as the same.
