Balanced Heating Using both upper and lower ceramic ovens ensures balanced heat distribution to minimise material stress. The dual ceramic ovens also enable a wide variety of materials (such as PVC, PS, APET, GPET, HDPE, ABS, STYROLUX, BAREX and K-Resin) to be used in the machines. Temper-ature is monitored by PID software and can be controlled using the HMI operator panel.

Accurate Indexing Material transport by spike chain system powered by servo drive to achieve indexing accuracy.

Rapid Forming The AFCS series is fitted with a high capacity reservoir and a vacuum pump to create an instant vacuum. After forming, the heated material is cooled by an air-jet.

AFCS-P series is the pressure forming version and is designed for high speed operation and finer forming definition.

Precision Cutting A servo motor driven steel-rule punch press with a punching pressure of 60mt is fitted, as standard. The upper platen is motor driven with adjustable height settings to allow varying tool heights. The complete assembly can be moved along the length of the machine by motor for precise positioning.

Stacking The fully intergrated stacking station receives the trimmed products and after a pre-determined amount is collected, the finalised products are pushed out.

The Ridat AFCS series is the most advanced in our range of thermoforming machines, combining high capacity operation with precision finishing.

Robust and reliable machines are designed for medium scale production. These are fitted with sophisticated electronic controls to provide guaranteedhigh quality results.

AFCS machines are able to accept tooling made by other major Europeanmanufacturers and crucially tooling costs are significantly lower.
