Definition: In sheet thermoforming, a frame made from thin wires or thick bars shaped to the peripheries of the depressed areas of the mold and suspended above the sheet to be formed. During forming, the assist frame drops down, drawing the sheet tightly into the mold and thereby preventing webbing between high areas of the mold and permitting closer spacing in multiple molds.
