Formech 1500 Vacuum Former
Energy-Efficient Quartz Heating System
Featuring energy-efficient quartz heaters, the system delivers rapid heating to reduce processing time and energy consumption.
Vacuum Pressure Monitoring
Provides a clear visual display of vacuum pressure in both inHg and bar for consistent forming performance.
Formech Cycle View with 40-Program Memory
Monitor machine cycle status at a glance and adjust parameters in real time without interrupting the active cycle.
Pre-Stretch Feature
Pre-Stretch inflates the heated sheet to create a bubble, helping maintain uniform material thickness when forming deep tools.
Dual Cooling Fans
Accelerates cooling of formed parts to reduce cycle times.
Precision Vacuum Flow Control
Provides precise vacuum flow control for greater accuracy in demanding forming applications.
Electric Heater Drive
The electric heater drive provides smooth, precise heater movement for efficient operation and consistent heating.
Multi-User PIN Access Control
Supervisors can assign different access levels to operators for secure, controlled machine operation.
18 m³/h Oil-Filled Rotary Vane Pump
Provides an 18 m³/h vacuum flow for rapid, consistent performance during demanding forming operations.
Integrated Vacuum and Mould Release
Once the formed part has cooled, air is forced between the mould and sheet to enable quick and easy part release.
7'' Color PLC Touchscreen Control
A 7-inch color PLC touchscreen provides intuitive control, quick setup, and easy access to machine settings.
18 Independently Controlled Heating Zones
Delivers rapid, precise heat control for forming challenging shapes and materials.
Auto-Level Feature
Prevents material sag during heating by maintaining a consistent distance between the heater and sheet, while an audible alert indicates when the material is ready to form.
Integrated Vacuum Receiver Tank
The integrated vacuum receiver tank provides rapid vacuum response for faster cycle times and consistent forming performance.
Pneumatic Table
Lifts tool table quickly and precisely making effortless operation, even with heavy tools. Twin controls avoid accidental activation.
Adjustable Table Height
Adjustable table height reduces tool table travel for shallow tools, helping shorten cycle times.
Pneumatic Trigger Clamps
A pneumatically powered clamping system delivers strong, effortless clamping with precise control.
12-Month Product Warranty
Every Formech machine includes a standard 12-month manufacturer’s warranty for added peace of mind.
