Thousands of professionals across design, product engineering, architecture, and many other occupations use Mayku products to bring their ideas to life. Mayku offers two 3D formers for this purpose:
-
FormBox - an easy-to-use desktop vacuum former that injects speed and customization into your production process
-
Multiplier - a desktop 3D former powered by industrial pressure forming technology
And here's a video series about 3D printing and thermoforming.

FormBox
Turbocharge your 3D printer by replicating your prints in seconds. Stop waiting hours for each print, and get to work as soon as you’ve found a form that’s perfect for the job. Go from idea to concept, to working prototype in just a day by creating, experimenting, and completing designs in a matter of minutes.
Maintain your professional finish whilst accelerating through your design process. The Mayku FormBox will pick up detail as fine as a grain of sand, meaning you don’t need to compromise on quality.
Take control of lead times, and slash your costs by producing in-house, from one studio.
How it works:
-
Design - Model your template in the CAD package of your choice
-
Print - 3D print your design
-
Multiply - Use the FormBox to multiply your design in seconds
The FormBox can pick up even the finest details of your design. Bring the power of the factory to your desktop today.

Multiplier
The Mayku Multiplier is a desktop 3D former powered by industrial pressure forming technology. It’s compatible with multiple plastic types and thicknesses, and results in highly detailed final parts and molds. When filled with compressed air, the Multiplier’s dome is pressurized to four atmospheres. This pressure forces air onto a heated plastic sheet into every crevice of a mold, and is able to capture details of less than <1μm with materials such as EVA sheets.
Features include:
-
Pressure of up to 60 psi - The Multiplier applies pressure, more than 4 times higher than vacuum forming, creating accurate parts with incredibly high levels of detail.
-
The heated pressure chamber - The Multiplier heats a sheet of material up to 200ºC in under two minutes. A smart levelling system controls the pressure during the heating process to make sure the sheet remains completely horizontal.
-
Smart features - The Mayku Multiplier is built with industrial-grade components and comes with integrated sensors, guaranteeing a consistent and safe pressure forming process.
-
380mm forming area - It features a circular 380mm safe forming area and 160mm of height. Make large parts or multiple smaller ones in one go.
-
Wi-Fi connectivity - The Multiplier features Wi-Fi connectivity, which means it will grow richer with new features and material profiles over time with regular firmware updates.

3D Printing and Thermoforming
Thermoforming and filament 3D printing (FDM)
In this video, Mayku team member Agustín Arroyo explores the benefits of using filament 3D printing (FDM) to create thermoforming templates or tools that can be used on both vacuum forming and pressure forming machines. Discover design, manufacturing and material use tips to make the best out of both technologies.
Thermoforming and resin 3D printing (SLA) | Practical guide
In this video, Mayku colleague Agustín Arroyo explores the benefits of using resin 3D printing (SLA) to create high-detail thermoforming templates or tools that can be used on both vacuum forming and pressure forming machines.
Thermoforming and SLS 3D printing
In this third video, Mayku team member Agustín Arroyo explores how an industrial technology like SLS 3D printing (Powder Bed Fusion 3D printing) can be used to make resistant thermoforming templates.
