Watch Robotics at Work in Dordan’s Thermoforming Line

Written by Chandler Slavin | Aug 15, 2025 2:43:01 PM

Dordan Manufacturing has 14 thermoforming lines, including two with robotics for high volume items. These robots strip plastic parts from the web after being thermoformed and die cut, allowing for consistent and efficient handling before the parts enter inspection and packaging. Dordan's engineers develop custom end-of-arm tooling for robotics in house, which integrates with the thermoform tooling, also produced in house.

In this video, you'll see thermoformed trays being stripped, moved, stacked, and indexed forward for inspection and packing. Enjoy, and sound on!
