DITAICustom industrial thermoforming
Thermoformed OEM parts, engineered from drawing to production.
DitaiPlastic coordinates DFM, tooling, sheet requirements, forming, CNC trimming, finishing, assembly and inspection for custom heavy-gauge thermoformed parts.
What we do
Industrial thermoforming solutions serving multiple industries
We help manufacturers and product teams turn concepts into finished thermoformed parts—from equipment housings and vehicle panels to trays, protective covers and appearance-critical components.
Housings, covers, panels and trays
Heavy-gauge thermoformed components for industrial equipment, transportation, robotics, medical equipment, logistics and branded product programs.
Engineering-first manufacturing
Our team joins from DFM review and material selection through tooling, forming trials, first-article approval and production release.
OEM engineering and sourcing teams
We support projects with functional, dimensional, cosmetic and documentation requirements—not anonymous off-the-shelf plastic products.
One integrated manufacturing route
Eight steps from your drawing to repeat production
Each stage resolves a manufacturing decision that affects tooling, fit, appearance or production consistency.
Design for manufacturability
Review your 3D files for draft angles, wall thickness, ribs and split lines to ensure robust forming, clean trimming and smooth assembly.
Aluminium moulds & jigs
CNC-machined aluminium moulds with cooling channels and vacuum ports. 1 week lead time vs 16–20 weeks for injection tools.
In-house sheet production
ABS, HIPS, PC, PETG and GRS-certified recycled sheets extruded in-house with controlled thickness, colour and texture.
Industrial thermoforming
16 machines from 1200×800 mm to 5000×2500 mm. Temperature controlled ±5°C, forming pressure up to 6 bar.
Precision trimming & drilling
28 CNC machines (3-axis and 5-axis) for precise trimming. ±0.5 mm tolerances on trim lines.
Brand-ready finishes
4 painting lines with Class-A gloss, matte and textured finishes. RAL/Pantone colour matching available.
Sub-assembly & integration
Assemble thermoformed shells with brackets, inserts, gaskets and hardware. Ready-to-install components delivered.
Real-time tracking & QC
Live dashboards show which machine is running your parts. Full traceability from forming to shipment.
Machines & in-house capacity
One thermoforming factory integrating tooling, sheet support, forming, CNC and finishing
Keeping the critical stages coordinated gives engineering and sourcing teams a clearer route for controlling quality, timing and production risk.
Maximum forming area, mm
Large-format forming capability, subject to geometry and material review.
CNC trimming
Repeatable cut lines, holes and mating features for complex formed parts.
Tooling coordination
Tooling, vacuum strategy and trimming fixtures reviewed with the process.
Material support
Resin, thickness, colour and texture aligned with project requirements.
Painting & assembly
Secondary operations coordinated for parts that require a finished appearance.
Established
Thermoforming experience developed around custom OEM programs.
For engineers, this means fewer supplier handoffs. For buyers, it means a clearer manufacturing route. For the project, it means less risk between tooling, first article and repeat production.
Material selection
Choose the sheet around performance, appearance and cost
Different applications need different balances of stiffness, impact, weathering, temperature performance, chemical resistance and finish.
ABS
A common industrial thermoforming material with a practical balance of impact performance, rigidity and finish.
- Good toughness for industrial parts
- Smooth surface for paint and printing
- Widely used for covers and housings
ABS + ASA
Combines ABS toughness with improved UV and weathering resistance for outdoor use.
- Better outdoor colour retention
- Suitable for exposed equipment
- Useful for transportation panels
HIPS
An economical material for many indoor, packaging and non-critical thermoformed parts.
- Lightweight and easy to form
- Useful for liners and trays
- Best for controlled environments
Polycarbonate
Used where impact strength and temperature performance are important.
- High impact resistance
- Clear or tinted options
- Suitable for guards and covers
PETG
Clear material with good formability and chemical resistance for visible or protective parts.
- Good optical clarity
- Suitable for displays and covers
- Works with printing and branding
Special grades & recycled options
Project-specific materials can be reviewed for compliance, flame performance or recycled content.
- Flame-retardant grades by requirement
- Chemical-resistant options
- Recycled content where suitable
Surface & colour options
Textures, colours and finishes for branded and visible parts
For equipment housings, vehicle panels and display components, appearance must be planned together with material and forming.
Moulded-in textures
Textured sheets can reduce visible scratches and fingerprints while supporting a controlled appearance.
Custom colours
Sheet colour can be coordinated around the product family and approved colour reference.
Painting & logos
In-house painting, silk screen and decals support appearance-critical parts that require specified colours or brand markings.
From concept to long-term production
A manufacturing partner built around repeat projects
Equipment matters, but reliable programs also depend on stable communication, engineering follow-through and controlled production release.
Feasibility before tooling
Resolve geometry, material, appearance and interface questions before committing to a manufacturing route.
First article before repeat orders
Verify agreed requirements and document open points before the process is released.
One coordinated team
Keep engineering, tooling, forming, CNC, finishing and quality connected throughout the program.
Support through production
Maintain the approved process and respond when drawings, quantities or requirements change.
Request a manufacturing review
Send the drawing before committing to tooling.
Include the application, overall dimensions, material or performance needs, estimated quantity and target timing. We will review the manufacturing route behind the quote.
CERTIFIED QUALITY SYSTEMS
Documented controls for repeat OEM production.
Our quality systems support material traceability, controlled production and documented inspection from forming through trimming, finishing and shipment.
