A Hampel engineer measuring a part with a height gauge

We can engineer it.

From first sketch to finished part, without handing it off.

Design-for-manufacture review, in-house pattern and tool design, large-scale 3D printing on a Modix Big Meter, and a product-management-led path from concept, or an existing tool, to production launch.

Machine 14, Hampel's 9 by 13 foot twin-sheet thermoforming system, on the floor in Germantown
We Do Big Machine 14. One of the world's largest twin-sheet systems,
300 tons of forming force, and the first Bosch Rexroth 9-axis hydraulic control in the U.S. Designed and built by Hampel.
A KUKA robot trimming a large formed part in Hampel's trim cell

We can finish it.

Vacuum, pressure and twin-sheet forming across ten work centers, 9-axis robotic trim, in-house sheet extrusion of more than eight million pounds a year, and the secondary operations that turn a part into a shipped assembly.

Can we
form it? Yes we can.

Commodity resins to engineered and UL-rated sheet. We'll recommend the right one for the application.

From the archives: 50 years of Hampel

Fifty years of taking shape.

We've been perfecting the art and science of thermoforming since 1976.

Saving time, reducing costs, maximizing quality: it had to start somewhere. But the day we stop refining who we are is the day we stop improving what we make.
