Custom Thermoforming Features
Custom Design
DVG is totally integrated. We have the design engineering experience, material knowledge, and state-of-the-art equipment to cost-effectively handle your most demanding projects. Our in-house capabilities include: Engineering drawings to help plan your projects; hands-on technical support and help with material selection; and CAD-CAM tooling for both prototype and production.
Prototyping
Upon approval by the customer, the final design is taken to the next level. A prototype pattern produced from a durable molded foam based upon the approved design and samples are supplied in the material of choice to ensure fit and functionality.
Production Tooling
Again, upon the customer's approval, we proceed to the next step…..aluminum molds CNC-Machined from the prototype pattern and final CAD models, as well as plug assists to help form the plastic and heated steel rule cutting dies to trim the profiles, all of which will be used to manufacture the final production parts. Our in-house CAD-CAM capability assures you precise tooling every time.
