Issue in high pressure forming, pressure forming and vacuum forming.

Desired design

After forming

The design has distortion near the vertical wall as a result of forming.In particular, markedly uneven forming parts tend to cause distortion.

Currently issues
Currently, in this case, most companies using forming systems have this issues. 1.Time - In order to correct distorted design, it is necessary to repeat trial and error. 2.Cost - It is necessary to make plates and to repeat forming several times, for try and error. 3.Technique - In order to make designs which are not distorted, manual adjustment is required using Illustrator, etc.

We thought that we can correct design by shift values of dots on previous forming and after forming using 1mm interval meshes.

Previous molding
This solution uses shift values, so repeatability is most important. It is not suitable for vacuum forming which depend on environment.

As a result of use this solution.... Time - You need one operation by software. So,few adjustments by manual operation. Cost - You need only a few adjustments, so the overall costs to make a design is greatly reduced. Technique - A decrease in trial and error means a decrease in the labor. So we developed the software named ModiSign which has correction algorithm.

The improvements of ModiSign

Improvement of monochrome
- We need expensive 3D scanner for scanning meshes until now, but we can also use flat scanner as below now.

Reduce aberration
- ModiSign use both previous and after meshes. So it will be compensate for aberration of scanner.

Support full color

- ModiSign supports full color bitmap using same basis.
