Safety
Thank you for choosing Formech.
Please read and follow the below safety instructions before attempting to install
or operate your machine.
Special attention should be paid to sections dealing with safety.
It is impossible to cover all aspects of thermoforming within the scope of this manual, we are therefore
available to offer advice on special problems regarding thermoforming techniques, tooling and materials.
1) The electrical supply to the machine must be of adequate capacity. Wiring must be to local regulations
and carried out by a suitably qualified technician. THIS MACHINE MUST BE EARTHED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
LOCAL REGULATIONS.
2) Ensure that the pneumatic air supply is regulated to 6 BAR or less and is properly filtered & lubricated using
a good quality airline oil. A competent person must make compressed air connections.
3) Do not operate the machine until you have been trained and are fully conversant with it. Read and
understand all of this User Manual. Users of this machine should complete regular competence tests.
4) Never remove any panels unless both the electrical and pneumatic supplies have been isolated.
Never remove any warning labels from the machine. It is important to understand that high pressures may be
present within parts of the pneumatic system even after the supply has been isolated. Special care must be
taken if any parts have become jammed to ensure that all pressure is removed before attempting a repair.
5) Daily repetitive use of this or any other machine may lead to a) fatigue and loss of concentration. b)
possible strains. Operators should be trained in the use of correct lifting techniques in order to minimise these
effects.
6) When servicing the machine care must be taken to prop any heavy moving parts. This refers particularly
to the mould table, clamping frame and counter balance weights. Always restrict movement of these parts
before entering any part of the machine to prevent possible injury.
7) Always let the machine cool down before attempting to work on it. Some parts of the heater and heat
shield become extremely hot during operation.
8) Only use the machine for vacuum forming and blow moulding of plastic. It is not intended for any other
purpose.
9) Ensure that the area you are working in is properly ventilated and that you are aware of the potential
hazards from the plastics you are forming.
10) Ensure that the area surrounding the machine is clean and frequently cleared of finished product and any
waste.
11) This machine is fitted with a dry running vacuum pump. Do not lubricate. Do not allow any liquid to enter
the vacuum system. Severe damage may be caused if the above is not observed.
