plastic fabrication solution

Plastics are the most common material used for end-use parts and products, ranging from consumer goods to medical devices. There are thousands of polymer options in the plastics category, each with its own mechanical properties.

Plastic products are manufactured from a wide variety of materials and processes. Our experts can help you determine which manufacturing process is most suitable for your application. Contact us HERE for more information.

Our expertise in manufacturing is not limited to just metalwork. We are equally experienced in plastic fabrication, with a wide range of solutions suitable for all kinds of production projects. We partner with specialized plastic and rubber suppliers in our region to provide plastic products made with the following processes:

Materials such as plastics can be formed and shaped in a variety of ways, making them extremely versatile. Plastic parts are manufactured in a variety of different ways depending on the material, the geometry, the tolerances, and the volume of the parts. Additionally, design flexibility is crucial since tooling for certain processes, including extrusion and injection molding, is expensive, and changes to designs can be costly.

Injection Molding

Injection molding is typically used to produce plastic parts with thin walls, consistent wall thicknesses, and an appropriate draft. A major consideration for injection molding is the need for expensive tooling that corresponds to a specific polymer. In the case of material or geometry changes, this limits the design flexibility.

Blow Molding

Blow molding is used to manufacture hollow plastic parts. A blow mold can be extruded, injected, or stretched by injection. All of these can be used to make general production sizes ranging from 4 oz to 2.5 gallon containers. If the product specifications of some customers are, however, beyond the range of our general production sizes, then this is an appropriate time to apply for a customized mold.

Blow Molding vs Injection Molding: What’s the Difference?

It is often used interchangeably when discussing molding processes to refer to both blow molding and injection molding. The two processes are alike, but not identical. Both blow molding and injection molding use liquid materials - normally plastics - to fill a mold cavity. By contrast, injection molding creates solid items, whereas blow molding creates hollow ones. In the manufacturing industry, only blow molding is an effective and fast solution for hollow objects.

Plastic Extrusion

With plastic extrusion, you can produce long profiles with a consistent cross-section. Therefore, requiring only two-dimensional specifications the process can generate high-quality products quickly. Several thermoplastics can be extruded and then finished with coiling, cutting, notching, or punching, etc. It may seem simple, but the plastic extrusion process is used to create complex such as medical tubing.

Thermoforming and Vacuum Forming

Vacuum and thermoforming involve heating a thermoplastic sheet and, following that, applying vacuum pressure to pull the sheet over or into a mold. Compared with other processes, thermoforming and vacuum forming has the advantage of a lower tooling cost and a faster turnaround time. It can be a cost-effective way to prototype, conduct research and development, and also be used for long-term volume manufacturing, depending on the product.

Rotational Molding (rotomolding / rotocasting)

Thermoplastic rotational molding is used for creating hollow plastic components with low stress. The technique works by adding plastic powder resin to a hollow mold, which is then baked on a bi-axis machine until the powder has melted. Once the resin has coated the inside of the mold, the part can be removed once it has cooled. A variety of parts can be made using this process, depending on their size, shape, and complexity. It is most suitable for low to medium-run quantities, but it is economically viable for many types of projects.

Toolmaking

Tooling design plays a crucial role in the development of plastic injection moulding products. Our Omnidex Experts support our customers with design in both complex and standard mold tools.

A Brief Overview of Metals Physical Properties

omnidexcn 6 October 2022

There are many ways to distinguish materials based on their physical properties. Metallurgy studies often look at physical properties as a broader category than mechanical properties. However, not all properties overlap. Using testing methods, physical properties can be distinguished from mechanical properties. In contrast to measuring mechanical properties, measuring physical properties does not require applying force to the material.

Steel is comparatively inexpensive compared to many other metals, which makes it an ideal metal for many projects. Cookware and cutlery, surgical instruments, industrial equipment, and outdoor site furnishings are often made from stainless steel, which has a bright finish and is non-reactive.

The properties and advantages of stainless steel and steel are different, and it is important to understand the differences in aesthetics, properties, and costs before choosing one alloy over the other.

A valve is used in almost every situation that involves the flow of liquid or gas. You control the flow of water through your kitchen sink with a valve. A gas stove brings propane gas into its burners through a different valve. Outside the home, industrial valves are designed to withstand high pressures, either from fluids or gases, and to last for years in harsh conditions. Almost every utility, whether water, oil or gas, could not operate without heavy-duty, industrial-strength valves.
