Thermoforming
Thermoforming involves heating plastic sheets to create custom shapes, ideal for cost-effective, high-definition components. AV Engineering utilises vacuum and pressure forming for precision aerospace, automotive, and medical parts. Our in-house mould making ensures dimensional accuracy and rapid prototyping.
In-house Mould Making
Our in-house mould making facility crafts high-quality tools from ureol and aluminium using CNC technology. This ensures control over production timelines and quality, accommodating undercuts, textures, and complex geometries for diverse industrial applications.
Plastic CNC Machining
AV Engineering employs 5-axis CNC machines for trimming and machining plastics, supporting prototypes to full production runs. Our CAD/CAM systems handle files up to 2000 x 2000 x 710mm, ensuring tight tolerances and compatibility with client specifications.
Prototyping
Prototyping services validate designs before mass production, using 3D machining and soft tooling. We reduce costs by assessing material suitability and environmental resilience, leveraging 50 years of expertise in complex project execution.
Fabrication and Assembly
Post-production fabrication includes welding, bonding, and assembly of thermoformed parts. Techniques like ultrasonic and chemical bonding ensure compliance with ISO standards, delivering fully tested sub-assemblies or complete units tailored to client needs.
