Semi-Manual

Semi-Manual Ridat range includes a number of Semi Manual and manual models designed to cater to the needs of schools, model-makers and for prototyping. These benefit from Ridat’s over 50 years of experience in the manufacture of thermoforming equipment to high engineering standards. These series of machines have been designed to provide a low cost solution. Semi-Manual Vacuum Forming Machine (SM) Semi Manual (SM series) Vacuum Former is designed for prototype and small volume runs. Here, the crucial heating cycle is automatic. All other facets are power assisted. Loading of sheets and removal of the forming are manual.

It was first developed in early 70’s, in co-operation with Royal Marsden Hospital, London to produce beam directional shells for radiotherapy. Despite being messier than the thermoplastic option, vacuum formed shells are generally more accurate, better in replicating the contours of the body, less flimsy, easier to label and more suitable for skin sparing. 3624 MediVac

Semi Automatic

Semi Automatic Ridat has for the past 50 years provided a single source range of packaging plant. It tended, until recently, to concentrate in semi automatic machinery for vacuum moulding, blister packaging and skin packaging.  Many of the earlier versions are still operating and Ridat machines are acknowledged as the workhorses for the industry. Midmatic Vacuum Forming Machine (MM) Semi Automatic (referred to as Midmatic) Vacuum Former provides for automatic processing cycle complete with material heat, vacuum to mould the shape, cooling of the formed product and ejection from the mould, index of the vacuum formed  sheet and  in-line sheet separation for continued uninterrupted production Ridat Midmatic Vacuum Formers has, since the late 60’s, generally been the work horse of the trade formers throughout the UK (and many of the English speaking countries around the globe), until the introduction of the form-cut stack systems. Updated to current day standards, it is still the appropriate solution for small to medium volume production runs and even today can be found plugging away with many trade formers. Ridat Midmatic Vacuum Formers together with Roller Press still form cost effective alternative to the high cost 3-stage inline thermoformers. 3624MM Semi Automatic Vacuum Forming Machine (SA) Semi Automatic (SA series) Vacuum Former for  automatic forming cycle complete with material heat, vacuum to mould the shape, cooling of the formed product and ejection from the mould to allow easy removal of the vacuum formed component to be removed by the operator Ridat Semi Automatic Vacuum Formers offer, as standard high specifications, consistent production and a wide range of standard models and readiness to respond to requests for bespoke specifications. 4030SA 4030SA with plug

Automatic Thermoforming Equipments and Machines, Machines

Automatic

Automatic Ridat made a huge advance to its range by taking over and merging RCS Thermoforming, another UK based manufacturer of thermoforming equipment but with high speed and aut omatic range. It enables Ridat to compete with the European majors in the design and manufacture of high speed Pressure Forming and Thermoforming machinery (both inline systems with pre-heat, form trim & stack systems), Industrial Vacuum Formers and Blister Packaging systems. Following the merger of the two British companies, what we have done is evolve a new generation of specialist high speed machinery for today’s competitive business world. Our equipment incorporates high degree of sophistication and its reliability has been proved in the toughest environments. Industrial Vacuum Former (AVF) AVF for moulding thick sheets of thermoformable material.  Add on modules for sheet feed systems and reel feed attachments are also optionally available. Ridat Vacuum Formers with Duplex Heaters with its standard high specifications provides consistent production to match the European majors. We offer wide range of standard models and are ever ready to respond to requests for bespoke specifications. With Superior Performance at highly competitive prices, the Ridat AVF series of machines are delight for all Production Manager, Business Owners and Finance Director. 6040AVF 8040AVF Automatic Thermoforming Cut & Stack System (AFCS) AFCS for automatic processing of roll-fed material with 3-pitch pre-heat vacuum forming, trimming and stacking.  Pressure Forming versions are also available. Ridat form-cut stack systems offer comparatively bigger forming areas with more powerful servo driven trimming presses, so as to provide greater flexibility with mould design and use of the newer thermoformable materials.  The Ridat 3-stage thermoforming machines will accept tooling used in most competitors machines; tooling costs are also generally greatly lower. With Superior Performance at highly competitive prices, the Ridat AFCS series of machines are delight for all Production Manager, Business Owners and Finance Directors. 2416AFCS Automatic Pressure Forming Machine (APF) ABP for complete blister (pressure) forming, filling and sealing with coated backing media. The Ridat Automatic Blister Packaging systems are the most advanced in the comprehensive range of Ridat. Blister Packaging equipment is designed for high volume users. Modular format enables the equipment to be split to operate asa stand-alone high volume blister former or a high speed precision indexing fully automated blister sealing conveyor.   1610 APF 2012 APF Large Format Automatic Thermoforming Machine (ATF) ATF Semi Automatic Thermoforming machine (earlier referred to as the Super series) featuring in-line pre-heating, heating, large format forming, material transportation and sheet separation Another old faithful of trade formers producing chocolate, biscuit box inserts and similar components that permits trimming of multiple sheets at a time on say the Ridat Roller Cutting Presses. With its large forming area, the Ridat ATF’s allowed flexibility in mould design, low unit cost and high volume production. It also finds favour with in-house manufacturers of building products like roofing & ventilation panels; underfloor heating panels; drainage (both roof & underground) and cut-off walls for contaminated land. The larger model 4848ATF is available also as a pressure former. 3025ATF P10-4848-ATF-P

MediVac Vacuum Forming Machine (MediVac)

MediVac Vacuum Forming Machine (MediVac) Ridat’s MediVac range of vacuum forming machines are designed for use by hospitals to produce moulds for radiotherapy masks. To make the shells, an impression of the patient is first taken & from this a plaster positive cast is made. The cast is placed in the Ridat Vacuum Former and plastic film is heated and drawn down over the cast by applying vacuum. These transparent plastic vacuum formed shells are used to immobilise and position the patients comfortably so that the external beam radiotherapy can be planned and given in a precise and repeatable manner. This route offers more accuracy, better in replicating the contours of the body, less flimsy, can be readily labelled and much more suitable for skin sparing. Key machine features include: Ceramic heaters with multi-zone heater control for balanced heat Horizontally moving heater box Crucial heating cycle digitally timed Front opening material clamp with spring loaded  hinge Manual clamp locking Sturdy drape table with smooth and easy movement High capacity vacuum reservoir and pump for instant vacuum supply User friendly operator panel CE Mark   Optional features include: Canopy Alternative aperture plates MediVac – RIDAT Vacuum Forming Machine Brochure Technical Specification https://youtu.be/P6KP1I0DynYApplications shells for neck & head shells for thorax
