Maxi-Form Brailon Duplicator
Like the EZ-Form, the Maxi-Form Brailon® Duplicator remains one of the most accurate methods for creating and reproducing braille text and tactile graphics. The key difference is its larger forming area, which makes the Maxi-Form ideal for producing maps, signs, graphs, charts, and other large-scale tactile graphics. Safe and easy to operate, it produces permanent, cost-effective teaching aids and braille copies from a single master using Brailon®.
One frame is included with the purchase of the Maxi-Form machine, and others can be added at any time. Available sizes are:
13-7/8×18-5/8″
11×11.5″

Maxi-Form Product Details
Product Description
Like the EZ-Form, the Maxi-Form Brailon® Duplicator is one of the most precise ways to reproduce braille text and tactile graphics. The main distinction between the EZ-Form and Maxi-Form is the larger forming area on the Maxi-Form, making it especially suited for maps, signs, graphs, charts, and other large-scale tactile graphics.
Safe, simple, and reliable, the Maxi-Form produces permanent, cost-effective teaching aids and braille copies from a single master using Brailon®. With more than 50 years of manufacturing expertise, these machines are easy to maintain and consistently deliver high-quality duplicates.
Often referred to as the Thermoform Machine, the Maxi-Form is very user-friendly. Place your master or mold on the machine, cover it with a sheet of specially formulated Brailon® plastic, and close the clamp. Slide the heating element forward to cover the master and wait a few seconds. Once finished, slide the heating element back, release the clamp, and remove your Brailon® copy. The process takes only seconds and produces an accurate reproduction of the original master.
Each Maxi-Form Thermoform Machine comes with one frame, with a variety of frame sizes available.
