Introduces the latest innovations in thermoforming materials, processes, and applications Advanced Thermoforming brings readers fully up to date with the latest standards, processes, materials, and applications in the field. From forming to filling to sealing processes, the author explains everything that can now be accomplished using the most advanced thermoforming technologies available. Moreover, readers learn how to fully leverage these technologies in order to design and manufacture products that meet all specifications at minimum cost and maximum efficiency. Emphasizing the application of advanced thermoforming for the production of technical parts and packaging, the book: Guides readers through all facets of development, design, and machine and mold technologyRecommends new technologies that offer higher productivity, better quality, and lower costsDescribes common raw materials used in thermoforming, including how specific materials affect the production processExplains the proper handling of semi-finished products and formed partsSets forth the basic principles of extrusion, an essential process underlying thermoformingIntroduces the latest software techniques to simulate the thermoforming of new productsThroughout the book, readers learn about the latest innovations in thermoforming, from thermoformed automobile body parts to fully automated packaging assembly lines. The author offers valuable content from his interviews with leading industrial thermoformers, sharing insights and tips from their years of hands-on experience with readers. With Advanced Thermoforming as their guide, polymer and plastics engineering professionals and students can now explore and exploit the full range of possibilities that thermoforming technology offers.Content: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1–4): Chapter 2 Basics of Thermoforming and Thermoplastics (pages 5–11): Chapter 3 Production of Semifinished Products, Extrusion, and Coextrusion (pages 12–27): Chapter 4 Introduction to Technical Parts (page 28): Chapter 5 Antenna Radome Manufacturing (pages 29–32): Chapter 6 Fuel Tank Production on Sheet Machines (pages 33–40): Chapter 7 Automotive Body and Commercial Vehicle Applications (pages 41–47): Chapter 8 Production of Refrigerator Liners (pages 48–60): Chapter 9 Paint Replacement in Automotive Applications (pages 61–69): Chapter 10 Motor Air Intake Made from PA 6 GF 15 (pages 70–71): Chapter 11 Sanitary Equipment (Sheet Machine) (pages 72–75): Chapter 12 Thermoforming and Milling of Large?Scale Formed Parts (Sheet Machine) (pages 76–83): Chapter 13 Changeover of Sheet Machines (pages 84–91): Chapter 14 Chromed Parts (pages 92–93): Chapter 15 Applications in Aircraft and Mass Transportation (pages 94–102): Chapter 16 High?Quality and Fully Transparent Products (Sheet Machines) (pages 103–105): Chapter 17 Deco Molding and Multi?deco Molding (pages 106–118): Chapter 18 Automotive Body Parts Made of PA + ABS (pages 119–120): Chapter 19 Softfeel Made from ABS/TPU Material (pages 121–123): Chapter 20 Introduction to Packaging (page 124): Chapter 21 Optimizing a Thermoforming Process for Packaging (pages 125–136): Chapter 22 Analysis of Thermoforming Films (pages 137–143): Chapter 23 Advanced Analysis of Thermoforming Films (pages 144–150): Chapter 24 Analysis of Thermoformed Products (pages 151–159): Chapter 25 Analysis of Completely Formed, Filled, and Sealed Containers (pages 160–166): Chapter 26 Automated Packaging (pages 167–178): Chapter 27 Production of Flowerpots (pages 179–196): Chapter 28 Steel Rule Die Punching (pages 197–199): Chapter 29 Production of Meat Trays (pages 200–207): Chapter 30 Multilayer Films for Thermoforming Applications (pages 208–210): Chapter 31 PET in Thermoforming Applications (pages 211–226): Chapter 32 Thermoformed Packaging Made of PLA (pages 227–231): Chapter 33 Peel and Reseal (pages 232–249): Chapter 34 Foam Packaging with PP and PS (pages 250–256): Chapter 35 Blister Packaging of Syringes (pages 257–263): Chapter 36 The Production of Drinking Cups (pages 264–286): Chapter 37 Ultrasonic Sealing and Cutting in Thermoforming (pages 287–292): Chapter 38 Understanding the Brittle Behavior of Polystyrene Cups (pages 293–307): Chapter 39 Preprinted Film for Lid Thermoforming (pages 308–310): Chapter 40 Flexible Films (pages 311–315): Chapter 41 Simulation (pages 316–323): Chapter 42 Recycling (pages 324–327):
