Product Description
Formech 300DT Desktop Vacuum Former
Professional Thermoforming Made Simple and Compact
Compact Powerhouse for Precision Forming
The Formech 300DT Desktop Vacuum Former delivers professional-grade results in a compact size. Designed for product designers, engineers, educators, and small manufacturers, the 300DT offers a fast, intuitive vacuum forming experience without compromising on power or precision.

Plug and Play
Compared with other compact machines on the market, the 300DT comes with a built-in vacuum pump and moulding release, so you don’t need an external vacuum source. It’s a pure Plug and Play machine – just connect to a standard electrical socket.
Ease of Use
The 300DT features a number of controls and displays as standard, such as a mechanical safety interlock to prevent the table being raised while heaters are in the forward position (especially important for schools), release air to ease the mould’s release from the forming, and a digital timer with programmable countdown and audible alarm.
What's in the box?
With the 300DT, you'll find an electric plug, a table mesh and a sample pack of plastic sheets.
