This invention is an improved thermoforming process and apparatus for the production of rigid plastic containers. The apparatus employs a molten sheet (5) of thermoplastic material that is processed through two extrusion rolls (7), thermoformed on the periphery of a rotating form tool, mechanically ejected from the form tool (8), conveyed to a conventional punch press (12) where the formed articles are trimmed from the sheet then packaged for shipment. The operation of the extruder (3), extrusion rolls (7), forming wheel (8), mechanical ejection (9) and trim stations (10) are operated as a continuous, integrated system.

L'invention est un procédé et un appareil de thermoformage améliorés destinés à la production de récipients en plastique rigide. L'appareil utilise une feuille fondue (5) de matière thermoplastique traitée par l'intermédiaire de deux rouleaux d'extrusion (7), thermoformée sur la périphérie d'un outil de formage tournant, elle est éjectée mécaniquement de l'outil de formage (8), transportée jusqu'à une machine à poinçonner classique (12) où les articles formés sont découpés de la feuille puis emballés pour expédition. Le fonctionnement de l'extrudeuse (3) des rouleaux d'extrusion (7), de la roue de formage (8), des postes d'éjection (9) et de découpage (10) mécanique se déroulent sous la forme d'un système continu intégré.
