Semi / Fully Automatic

Get the most return on your investment with Formech’s automatic range of sheet and reel-fed vacuum forming machines in the HD and TF series.

These machines are designed and built to handle the most demanding applications – but with an impressive, compact footprint that rivals similar machines on the market. Generous standard specifications such as pneumatic heater drive, pneumatic clamps and table, cooling fans, safety light curtain, multi-user pin access control, and an extensive range of options, mark the HD and TF series as cost effective and highly adaptable.

Crucially, due to their popularity, machines in the range are available at relatively short lead times compared to other manufacturers.

HD Series

The HD Series is the most advanced Formech series, operating semi-autonomously using sheet materials. First introduced in 2002, the HD series established a new price-performance ratio for semi-automatic production class machines, and its efficient heat management, ease of use, compact footprint and accessible price are instrumental to its success.

TF Series

Specifically designed for reel feed packaging and decorative film applications, such as chocolate trays, inserts and clam packs, Formech’s TF series operate fully automatically and can adapt to a diverse number of applications.

With Plug Assist installed as standard, and capable of processing reel materials up to 0.07" (1.8mm) and sheet materials up to 0.25" (6mm), TF series machines are highly versatile, and represent a cost effective and compact alternative to high speed in-line machines.
