Compared with CNC prototypes, vacuum molding machines have the following disadvantages:
1. Low precision: Since vacuum molding requires the use of molds for molding, its accuracy is not as high as CNC processing.
2. Slow molding speed: Compared with CNC processing, the molding speed of vacuum molding is relatively slow because it needs to wait for the mold to cool before continuing the operation.
3. Not suitable for complex structures: Since vacuum molding requires molds to complete complex shapes, some products with more complex structures may not be realized by this method.
To address these disadvantages, the following solutions can be adopted:
1. Improve accuracy: Accuracy can be improved by improving the technical level of vacuum equipment and optimizing the process flow. At the same time, more advanced measuring instruments can also be used to detect size and shape deviations of products.
2. Strengthen the degree of automation: By introducing automated production lines, production speed can be accelerated to a certain extent and manual errors can be reduced. In addition, advanced technologies such as three-dimensional scanners can also be used to quickly measure, model and analyze products.
3. Improve material selection: You can try to use higher strength materials or use composite materials to enhance the strength and hardness of the product to meet the needs of some special applications.
