Warranty
Reliability and a long service life are synonymous with the Formech brand. However, as with any machinery,
certain parts will require periodic replacement.
The silicon seals applied to the mould table and to the top aperture of the machine (clamp) are seen as
being consumable parts, their service life will depend on how the machine is treated and how often it is used.
The table and clamp seals are not covered by our warranty.
Heating elements
The infrared heating elements supplied with this machine are manufactured from a ceramic material and
are very brittle. A shock to the machine may break an element.
An interlock system is built into the machine to prevent a mould being pushed up into the heater and
damaging the elements.
The heating elements contain a length of resistance wire internally, which becomes extremely hot when
electricity is applied. The wire expands and contracts as it heats and cools.
Eventually, due to the continual expansion and contraction, the wire will fracture and a new element will be
needed. This may take a decade or more. Alternatively it could happen as a result of an impact or shock.
Because of this we are unable to apply our standard warranty to ceramic heating elements.
The heating elements are not covered by our warranty.
Vacuum system
The vacuum system on this machine is fairly simple but uses high quality components throughout. The life
expectancy of the vacuum system will be compromised by the ingress of dirt, shavings, dust, liquid etc.
THE VACUUM CIRCUIT INCLUDING THE VACUUM PUMP WILL NOT BE COVERED BY OUR WARRANTY IF
THEY ARE FOUND TO BE BLOCKED WITH FOREIGN MATTER OR CORRODED BY THE INGRESS OF LIQUID.
