Injection Molding of ceramics, metals and plastics is a high volume process based on specifically designed tooling and low labor costs. Plastic IM has been a staple for most industries for many years. Ceramics and metals are also now dialed in as commodity type processes. Typical higher tooling costs allow for lower piece prices for your parts
PAC trusted Injection Molding Partners:
Ceramics:
Ceramco Corp. located in Center Conway, NH is our trusted CERAMIC IM partner. 100 to 10,000 Pieces - Ceramco manufactures highly-configured, complex-shaped ceramic parts. Understanding what we make may suggest economies of scale define what constitutes a large quantity order. Ceramco’s near-net shape production process results in parts providing satisfactory precision regardless of quantity. This means production orders of 100 to 10,000 pieces (typically) are produced with minimal tooling and little or no machining.
50,000 Pieces or More (Annually) – At this volume Ceramco’s engineers employ both automation techniques and higher capacity tooling. These are necessary to satisfy the increased volume requirements and maintain the precision of critical custom ceramic parts features. Ceramco’s near-net shape production process keeps follow-up machining to a minimum, improving the cost per part savings on these larger orders.
