Capabilities

• Heavy gauge forming:  Station thermoform molding in materials up to 3/8" thick  
in sheets as large as 6 feet x 10 feet.
• Thin gauge forming:  Custom Plastic Forming has three inline machines available 
for around-the-clock operation, if necessary.  Thin gauge forming is particularly
well-suited for trays, clamshells, point of purchase displays and similar high-volume
 requirements for the automotive, pharmaceutical, food, recreation, electronics, 
consumer products and many other markets.
• Pressure forming:  Pressure forming is a type of thermoforming that involves the 
traditional "vacuum draw" to pull the heated plastic onto the mold.  But at the same 
time, air is also inserted from the "back side" of the mold to press the plastic more 
firmly.  The result is sharp corners and other details normally attainable only through 
injection molding.
• Pre-printed 3-D part molding:  This thermoform process involves raw stock that is 
"distortion printed" utilizing computer generated graphics.  The appearance the plastic 
is drawn down over the mold. 
• Acrylic fabrication:  Custom Plastic Forming also offers a range of acrylic and sheet
fabrication operations.  Typical products include point of purchase displays,
cubes, ATV/golf cart windshields and enclosures.  Among the operations we perform 
are heat bending, flame polishing, drilling, milling and gluing. 
• Auxiliary operations:  CPF offers robotic trimming, hand operations, painting,
pad printing and a host of other services.
• Common products/markets:  We have supplied parts for a broad range of 
industries including heavy manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, packaging, golf car &
ATV vehicles, consumer products and many others.

• Quality programs:  Custom Plastic Forming maintains ISO standards, and
is currently pursuing ISO registration. 
• Engineering/design:  On-staff and contracted engineers utilize CAD and CAD/CAM
to achieve rapid prototyping mold design to ensure the quickest route to getting your
parts into production.
• Mold design/making:  Custom Plastic Forming's in-house mold and die department
can produce many of the molds necessary for our operations or produce pattern molds
for foundries to pour aluminum molds.  
• Just-in-time:  We routinely provide JIT delivery for our customers, warehousing parts
and delivering them when required.
• CNC trimming:  CPF has three CNC rounters capable of up to five axis operation.
