Description: Mayku Formbox - vacuum forming device
A device allowing to create various spatial formsusing e.g.objects previously printed on a 3D printer. Ready-made moulds allow to quickly create many structures in a short time, by making castings. Apart from creating templates for castings, it is also possible to tightly close products in blister packs. Formbox has a forming platform with dimensions of 200 x200 mm.The moulds are created on a safe, non-toxic0.5 mmsheet.
Unpacking and presentation of the Mayku Formbox.
The Mayku Formbox vacuum moulding machine creates moulds by pressing theheated sheet on theplatform and simultaneously sucking the air out with any vacuum cleaner. The templates created in this way allow you to create multiple constructions simultaneously. Thermoforming can be used to produce moulds for a wide range of materials.
Moulding sheets
Three different moulding materials are included in the set:
- Mayku Cast Sheet- a transparent sheet, food safe 0.5 mm thick for repeated use. Lightweight, flexible and non-stick surface of the sheet provides easy template removal. Fully recyclable. 30 sheets are included.
- Mayku Form Sheet- an easy-to-use sheet for versatile use. Sheet in white colour with a thickness of 0.5 mm. Ideal for packing products, creating forms and improving decorative designs. Fully recyclable. The set includes 30 sheets.
- Mayku Pour- easy to use, non-toxic casting material designed for Mayku Formbox andCast Sheets. Mix the powder with water using the supplied measuring devices.
