- Thermoplastics per specification
Product Overview
Plastic parts produced by injection moulding, where molten plastic is injected into a mould, and by blow moulding, which is used primarily for hollow objects. Parts are made to each project's specification for sectors including automotive and electronics. Production runs through three plastic production suppliers, and enquiry handling, quality control and delivery supervision are provided as part of the service.
Key Benefits
- Injection and blow moulding both available, so hollow and solid parts are covered
- Three production suppliers give capacity and options on price and lead time
- Quality control and delivery supervision included rather than left to the factory
- Parts designed to the exact specification of the project
- Lightweight parts with durability suited to the application
Problems It Solves
- Factories quoting without anyone checking the goods before shipment
- Hollow parts that cannot be injection moulded in one piece
- Capacity constraints at a single supplier delaying production
- Parts that meet the drawing but not the assembly

How It Is Made And Checked
Materials Process And Quality Control
Materials
- Thermoplastics per specification
Manufacturing Process
- Injection moulding
- Blow moulding
- Assembly
- Quality inspection
Quality Control
- Specification agreed in writing before production starts
- First article or sample approved against the agreed specification
- Goods inspected and photographed at the factory before loading
- Inspection report sent to you before the container sails
Customisation Options
What Can Be Varied
- Injection or blow moulding by part geometry
- Material grade and colour
- Tooling designed for the production quantity
- Assembly and secondary operations
- Inspection level and reporting before shipment
Compared With The Alternatives
| Custom plastic parts | The same moulding capability, with this route emphasising supplier selection, quality control and delivery supervision across a group of production partners. |
|---|---|
| Buying direct from a moulder | Direct buying can be cheaper on paper; having inspection and delivery supervised removes the risk that a problem is only found on arrival. |
Use Guide
- Send a 3D model and state the material and any regulatory requirement
- Decide injection or blow moulding by whether the part is hollow
- Agree the inspection level before production starts
- Approve first articles before releasing the full quantity
Questions
