Applications and Implications
The platform will be 500mm X 350mm.
The machine design can be a full stand alone or can be on a table.

The primary function of this machine in this stage to repetition casting shapes as much as you want using plastic sheets. These posses deepening on heating a plastic sheet and them place it on top of the object, high vacuum machine eliminates all the air around the object you want to cast. (the difference in air preacher between two parts)
There are many machines and design, has the same function but this one will have two funcations, in the end, the first one as vacuum forming machine, the other function will be blowing shapping for Domes.
As I mention it before I want to build this machine for a couple of reasons but the essential one, our lab needs to obtain one, for that I undertook a research about and how to construct one, From a classic method to highly complicated function one
During this Project, I will design the two boxes on as the vacuum box and the other as a heating box, Design the stand structure for the whole machine, designing the air vacuum adapter unit. Electronics I will use the old input and output device I build in previous tasks.
All materials and components from the local market as (Wood, Wires, and metal) and old oven (the hearting rods)
My building cost.
Wood ...35$
Metal ...25$ option if you want the stand
Wires ...3$
Aluminum foil rolls... 5$
3D printing (Vacuum Adapter)... 15$
Screws ....0.5$
Sealed rubber ... 2.5$
Temp. sensor ... 20$
Oven roads ( donate from an old used oven with other parts )
Testing materials .... 35$
Using in the fabrication these machines 3D printers / ShopBot / laser cutter / Roland monofab / Vinal vutter / vacuum machine from our lab.
