Purpose
Almost all of thermoforming industry uses amorphous materials
Use molds that are not temperature-controlled
Material options = Better quality parts

Conclusion
Temperature-controlled aluminum tooling shows much more consistency with HDPE than Renshape does.Much less warpage, shrinkage, and higher
dimensional stability as a result
HDPE needs a temperature-controlled mold to be deemed relevant in the thermoforming industry.
