Multilayer plug assisted thermoforming : concept and practical usefulness
This work presents a methodology to improve the final thickness distribution of thermoformed parts. The conventional plug is replaced by a new version containing concentric layers with independent displacements. The results show that thickness gradients can be significantly reduced, with a simultane...
