Operation Types

Rubber gaskets are often produced using a die-cutting tool and then punched out from a sheet of rubber, this is the most cost-effective method of manufacture as it offers minimal tooling cost and low unit cost. Many materials are kept in stock so from time of order to delivery can be as short as 7 days.

Like covers you purchase to protect your mobile phone these moulded covers offer impact protection and help to extend the life of the product. As with the keypads we manufacture, these protective cover mouldings can be printed and sprayed to add further value to the product.

For very high quality finished plastics that require photo quality prints and printing that wraps around the plastic moulding, we can produce parts using an in-mould decoration process.
The process involves printing the artwork required onto a photo epoxy coated film; this film is then formed in a tool to match the shape of the plastic moulding.
This formed film is then loaded into the injection moulding machine when the main plastic component is moulded and becomes part of the finished product during moulding.
This method of production allows the customer to achieve different colours, effects and textures on the final product, all complete when the moulding leaves the tool. It also means that if any changes required to the finish, colours or effects can be changed without the need for new tooling only the need to change the pre-formed film. The graphics will also never wear off the part as they are encapsulated between the film and resin layer.
