Vacuum Forming Tools

Pattern Solutions specialise in the creation of quality custom vacuum forming tools.

From the design to supply of tooling, including male and female moulds, trimming fixtures, and checking fixtures, the experienced team at Pattern Solutions cater for a wide variety of parts across numerous industries.

From heavy industrial transit trays, automotive interior panelling, to point of sale displays, if you require vacuum forming, Pattern Solutions can guide you through our automation-led processes for the creation of high-end tooling. We fully manage projects from start to finish, for total customer satisfaction from initial design concepts to full production tooling, working in close liaison with our clients throughout.

The tailored service offered by Pattern Solutions means our processes are determined by our clients’ needs. For instance, where applicable, we can cast temperature controlling pipes into the back of aluminium tools, accommodating auxiliary operations to support a streamlined manufacturing process.

Pattern Solutions supply tooling in polyurethane tooling board or cast aluminium, as machined from solid billet. Alongside this, we are further able to provide custom checking and trimming fixtures, with 5 axis NC code for component trim. 

Our processes are guided by both CAD and CAM, with tooling quality tested by CMMs. This is all backed up by full inspection data, provided by PowerInspect. 

Pattern Solutions further provides nationwide delivery for tooling.
