- Injection Molded Parts
Ramp up to Production, Prototypes, Low Volume Production
USR supports engineers, designers, and purchasing teams with our rapid injection molding and cast urethane processes to deliver parts in days not weeks. Engineers can have functional parts achieving critical tolerances, and surface finishes and take advantage of the scalability of injection molding.
Rapid Injection Molding
Injection molding is a proven process for producing plastic parts with high accuracy and fine feature detail at medium to high volume. Injection molding requires that a mold (tool) be built specifically for the part to be produced. Molds typically have a 6 to 8 week lead-time depending on size and complexity. The mold will require a significant capital investment, but each part coming off the mold will be relatively inexpensive. The pro of injection molding is that you can make a lot of parts fast and inexpensively. The con of injection molding is that you are locked into a design and any change to you part geometry can incur significant cost to modify of build a new mold.
- High dimensional accuracy
- Fine feature detail
- Low part cost
- Facilitates mass production
