Custom Plastic Vacuum Forming & Thermoforming Solutions
Beta Vakum is a vertically integrated manufacturer specializing in plastic vacuum forming and plastic thermoforming for custom industrial parts. At our production facility in Ankara, Türkiye, ABS sheet production, thermoforming mold design and manufacturing, sample production, forming, and 5-axis CNC trimming are all carried out in-house.
Producing our own ABS sheets allows us to control material quality, thickness, color, and surface properties throughout the production process. From technical drawings, part design, and reverse engineering to mold production, sampling, and serial production, we deliver repeatable thermoformed plastic parts for industrial B2B applications.
Our Plastic Thermoforming Capabilities
At Beta Vakum, plastic thermoforming production is carried out through an integrated process, from plastic sheet production to final part trimming. The appropriate sheet thickness and mold structure are determined based on the project dimensions, application area, surface requirements, and production volume.
• Sheet production: Carried out in-house at Beta Vakum.
• Mold design and manufacturing: Carried out in-house at Beta Vakum.
• Forming methods: Plastic thermoforming and vacuum forming.
• Trimming operations: 5-axis CNC cutting, 3-axis CNC cutting, and various trimming tools.
• Design support: Project development and reverse engineering.
• Maximum dimensions: Our largest machine has a sheet area of 1,300 × 2,550 mm. We also operate seven additional machines with different forming dimensions.
• Applicable sheet thickness: 1.5–6 mm.
• Production volume: Varies depending on the product and project requirements.
Plastic Thermoforming Production Process
Our plastic thermoforming production process starts with design, engineering, or reverse engineering. After mold production and sample approval, ABS sheets are produced according to the project requirements, and serial production begins using the vacuum forming method. Final trimming, drilling, and finishing operations are then carried out with 5-axis CNC.
ABS Sheet Production & Integrated Thermoforming
Beta Vakum ve Plastik manufactures the ABS sheets used in its plastic thermoforming and ABS vacuum forming operations in-house. Producing the material ourselves allows us to control thickness, color, surface properties, and material consistency throughout the production process.
Our in-house ABS sheets are available in various thickness, color, and surface options — fully prepared for vacuum forming plastics and thermoforming applications. This integrated structure ensures quality and continuity in project-specific production runs.
Custom Thermoforming Mold Production & Engineering
One of the most critical factors determining part quality and dimensional accuracy in plastic vacuum forming is mold design. At Beta Vakum, custom thermoforming mold production is carried out in-house together with the design and engineering phase.
If required, we can engineer plastic parts from scratch for products with no existing design, or reverse-engineer existing physical parts to prepare them for serial production.
Molds are manufactured specifically according to the intended use and technical requirements of each part. In-house mold production enables rapid revisions and ensures uninterrupted continuity throughout the production process.
Plastic Vacuum Forming & Thermoforming Applications
Medical Sector
Vacuum forming is used in the production of hospital bed components, medical device housings, and auxiliary equipment. In thermoform plastic applications for the medical sector, dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and repeatable production are prioritized.
Medical thermoformed plastic parts are produced using ABS sheets in project-specific thickness and surface options, then made assembly-ready through 5-axis CNC trimming.
Automotive & Plastic Auto Parts
Plastic trim panels and protective components for the automotive sector are produced using thermoforming plastics. As a plastic parts manufacturer for the automotive industry, we offer lightweight construction, strength, and dimensional consistency in every production run.
For plastic auto parts and trim applications, project-appropriate thickness and surface properties are determined and serial-production-ready thermoformed plastic parts are delivered.
Boiler & Tank Covers
In the production of boiler and tank covers, vacuum forming plastics offers clear advantages over metal alternatives — including lightweight construction, corrosion resistance, and design flexibility. We manufacture custom thermoforming solutions for boiler, combi, and industrial tank systems.
Defense Industry Applications
Thermoformed plastic parts for defense industry applications demand high strength, dimensional accuracy, and strict quality standards. Beta Vakum, as an experienced vacuum forming company, produces project-specific thermoformed plastic parts for defense applications.
Using plastic vacuum forming, the following components can be manufactured: UAV/drone enclosures, ammunition storage covers, military vehicle plastic components, radar housings, and similar protective enclosure applications.
Parts are shaped through ABS thermoforming using our in-house ABS sheets and finished to final dimensions with 5-axis CNC trimming. Defense industry production is carried out according to repeatable quality and controlled tolerance principles.
Furniture & Industrial Applications
Machine covers, enclosures, and decorative thermoformed plastic parts are produced cost-effectively using vacuum forming. In industrial applications, thermoforming plastics is the preferred method for plastic part production requiring strength and dimensional consistency.
