Formech 508DT Vacuum Former

The Formech 508DT is a user-friendly desktop vacuum former that delivers the power and precision to form complex shapes and demanding materials.

Plug and Play

With a built-in vacuum pump and mould release, the 508DT requires no external vacuum source. Just plug it into a standard electrical outlet and start forming.

Maximized Forming Capacity

The 508DT provides a spacious 482 × 432 mm forming area with a maximum draw depth of 185 mm, delivering one of the largest workspaces among desktop vacuum formers.

Heating Control

Energy-efficient quartz heaters with variable standby deliver fast heat-up times while reducing energy consumption. Combined with four independently controlled heating zones, the 508DT easily forms complex shapes and demanding materials.

Formech 508DT Features

Energy-Efficient Quartz Heating System

Featuring energy-efficient quartz heaters, the system delivers rapid heating to reduce processing time and energy consumption.

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.

Intuitive PLC Touchscreen Control

The intuitive PLC touchscreen interface provides simple, precise control for quick setup and efficient machine operation.

Four Independently Controlled Heating Zones

Delivers rapid heating with precise control for forming complex shapes and demanding materials.

Built-In Safety Interlock

A mechanical safety interlock prevents the table from being raised while the heaters are in the forward position.

Vacuum Pressure Monitoring

Provides a clear visual display of vacuum pressure in both inHg and bar for consistent forming performance.

20-Program Memory Storage

Save and instantly recall up to 20 named presets for fast, consistent setup across different applications.

12-Month Product Warranty

Every Formech machine includes a standard 12-month manufacturer’s warranty for added peace of mind.
