Thermoforming

Composite thermoforming-presses for low and high temperature thermoplastics

At Wickert, we rely on our own in-house development and excel in infrared heating and hydraulic systems. Our own controllers provide a wide range of options and configurations for precise heating of composite materials with maximum repeatability. Our hydraulic system guarantees a maximum transfer time of ≤ 5 seconds in thermoforming processes.
