ABSTRACT:
A method for using an expandable forming plug in forming apparatus such as plug assisted vacuum or pressure differential forming machines and the like wherein the plug cooperates with a mold to form hollow articles such as containers, closures, trays, and the like, from thermoplastic synthetic resinous film or sheeting. The expandable plug provides hollow articles which during forming can be programed or controlled, as desired, with respect to thickness distribution in the walls thereof and, more particularly, provides hollow articles with side and bottom walls of desired thickness, such as of substantially uniform or of a varying thickness.
