Thermal Heat Staking
A process used to join plastic components or plastic to metal by applying localized heat and pressure. This method is favored for its ability to produce strong, permanent joints with minimal environmental impact, as no solvents or additional fastening elements are required.
Key Features of Thermal Heat Staking:
Precision
No Need for Additional Materials
Strong, Reliable Joints
Versatility
Efficiency
Ultrasonic Welding
Ultrasonic Plastic Welding (USW) is a process used to join or reshape thermoplastic materials using heat generated from high-frequency mechanical vibrations. In this technique, high-frequency electrical energy is first converted into mechanical motion. This motion, when combined with applied pressure, produces frictional heat at the interface of the plastic parts (known as the joint area), causing the material to melt. Once melted, the plastics form a molecular bond as they solidify, resulting in a strong joint between the components.
Insert Molding
Insert molding is a plastic injection molding technique that involves placing a pre-made insert into a mold cavity and then injecting molten plastic around it. The insert becomes a part of the finished product, and the two materials form a strong bond.
Insert molding is used to create a variety of products, including:
-
Metal attachment features: Fasteners, such as threaded inserts, can be molded into plastic to create secure attachment points.
-
Insulated pipes and wiring: Insert molding can be used to create insulated pipes and wiring.
-
Electronics in plastics: Electronics can be embedded into plastics using insert molding.
-
Plastic handles on metal tools: A plastic layer can be added on top of a metal tool, such as a screwdriver, to create a plastic handle.
Custom Packaging
If your products requires special or custom packaging during transit, we can cater to your needs in order to protect and market your products better.
Assembly and Kitting
Assembly and kitting play an essential role in creating a lean, efficient production process. They support quality control, reduce errors, improve inventory management, and lead to quicker and more reliable fulfillment times, enhancing both operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
1. Assembly Benefits
Reduced Production Time
Quality Control
Improved Inventory Management
Customization Options
Cost Savings
2. Kitting Benefits
Enhanced Operational Efficiency
Reduced Assembly Errors
Decreased Handling Time
Lower Storage Costs
Laser Markings
Laser printing, or plastic engraving, is a non-contact printing technique that uses a laser to label or mark components. This method delivers high-quality, precise, and detailed prints with sharp lines, even for small or intricate designs. Since it’s a non-contact process, there is no physical interaction with the plastic material, reducing the risk of damage.
One of the key benefits of laser printing is its cleanliness and environmental friendliness. Additionally, it generates less waste compared to traditional printing methods, as it only melts the surface of the plastic rather than adding layers of ink or other materials.
Surface Finishes
Plastic surface finish is essential in product design, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality. A well-chosen finish can transform a product from basic to outstanding and can also conceal imperfections like flow lines or sink marks from the injection molding process. Additionally, textured surfaces improve paint adhesion and ensure a better grip and feel for the user. The right surface texture completes the product, making it look polished and professional.
Mold Flow Simulation and Analysis
Mold flow simulation and analysis is a software-based technique that predicts how a plastic resin will flow into a mold during the injection molding process:
Benefits of mold flow simulation and analysis
Helps avoid defects
Saves time and money by allowing changes to be made before cutting a tool
Material selection
Helps optimize process settings, cooling efficiency, and feed system designs
Gate positioning
Knit lines
Helps locate spots in the mold that are difficult to fill
Helps examine how resins flow at different temperatures and injection pressures
Helps account for part cooling
3D Printing
3D printing helps plastic injection companies by speeding up prototyping, enabling flexible tooling options, lowering costs, and supporting sustainable production practices, making it a valuable tool in modern plastic injection operations.
3D Printing offers the following benefits:
1. Rapid Prototyping
2. Tooling and Mold Production
3. Enhanced Product Development
4. On-Demand Spare Parts and Jigs
5. Sustainability
We offer two of the most established types of 3D printers for plastics parts: stereolithography (SLA) and selective laser sintering (SLS)
