Thermoforming Reverse Engineering — Shirley K’s

Have a part but no drawings? Shirley K’s can reverse-engineer it into a production-ready thermoformed tool.


Thermoforming Reverse Engineering — Send a Part, We Build the Tool
If you have a plastic part that needs to be reproduced but no longer have the tooling, drawings, or CAD files — Shirley K’s can reverse engineer it. Send us a physical sample and we design and build a new thermoforming tool from scratch.

WHEN TO USE REVERSE ENGINEERING

  • Original tooling was lost, damaged, or destroyed
  • Original vendor is no longer in business
  • Tooling documentation was never maintained
  • You acquired a product that includes a plastic component with no source
  • The original part manufacturer won’t share tooling documentation

HOW IT WORKS

  1. Send us a physical part (mail to 1150 Newark Road, Zanesville, OH 43701)
  2. We evaluate the part — material, geometry, and features
  3. We provide a quote for tooling and production
  4. Upon approval, we design and build the thermoforming tool
  5. First articles are produced for your review and approval
  6. Production begins

Note: Scanning or measurement capabilities will be confirmed during your project review. Contact us to discuss your specific part.


WHAT TO SEND

  • Physical part (as many samples as you can spare)
  • Any other parts that this one mates up to
  • Description of what the part is and how it’s used
  • Any known material specifications
  • Target production volume

Mail to: Shirley K’s, 1150 Newark Road, Zanesville, OH 43701
