Abstract

The main focus of this research is on building an economical setup for the packaging of a variety of products using the thermoforming technique. Three different sheets of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) were used during experimentation with a vacuum forming machine. The sheet with 0.15 mm thickness took less heating time compared with the other two sheets of 0.2 mm and 0.3 mm thickness. Better results are obtained in such a scenario when sheets are heated perfectly, and proper suction is applied. The sheet with 0.2 mm thickness gave the required results with a heating time of 245 s and temperature of 218 °C.
