Injection Molding Capabilities
Full-Service Injection Molding
Equipped with the latest technology, ASPM specializes in molded part solutions ranging from simple to complex assemblies.
A Full Range of Injection Molding Capabilities
ASPM’s scientific molding approach with detailed control plans and dedicated project management ensures complete traceability of your plastic parts from the mold making process through the production and delivery of every part.
Within ASPM’s 202,000 square foot state-of-the-art injection molding facility are nearly 100 horizontal and vertical injection molding machines ranging from 55-ton to 1100-ton capacity with the capability for full automation.
ASPM’s Plastic Injection Molding Capabilities
Two Shot Molding
Cost effective way to integrate two different colors or materials into the same part. This process is able to produce more complex parts, creating cost savings on press time and eliminating multiple tools from the process.
Insert Molding
Capable of both manual and automated insert molding, insert molding adds strength and durability to injection molded parts while reducing secondary assembly costs.
Laser Etching & Part Marking
Increased product traceability with customizable laser and ink jet marking.
Sequential Gate Control
Consistently mold larger and more complex parts with increased control, as well as family style tools with different sized parts.
Gas Assist
Reduces the effect of structural defects associated with thicker parts, like sink marks, warp, and residual stress within the part. Shorter cooling times and lighter part weight cuts down on cost.
Vacuum Assist
Reduces visual defects associated with trapped gases inside complex part designs, such as burns and short shots.
Scientific Molding
Decoupled molding process optimizes each machine input to create a stable injection molding process to reduce shot-to-shot variation.
Hot Oil
Capable of using oil to heat mold bases allowing for the use of high temp materials such as PEEK, PPSU and more.
Thin Wall Injection
Able to withstand higher injection pressures, reducing material cost and improving part performance.
Long Glass Fiber
Enhances tensile strength, flexural strength, and flexural modulus values. Allows for lower injection pressures, reduces molded-in stresses, provides less warpage, and improves weld line strength.
Injection Molding Expertise from Start to Finish
The technical expertise of our team and expansive capabilities of our facility provides ASPM the opportunity to tackle complex parts in any industry. Our expertise is extensive and has been leveraged in many different markets and applications that require high quality plastic injection molded parts.
Secondary Operations
ASPM is not a typical “shoot-and-ship” molder. We pride ourselves in our ability to tackle difficult applications, materials, and assemblies. Once parts are molded, we have the expertise in a wide variety of secondary operations to further process, improve, and/or inspect the parts we manufacture. Some of these Secondary Operations include:
- Sonic Welding
- Laser Welding
- Vibration Welding
- Heat Staking
- Pad Printing
- Annealing
- Component Assembly
- CNC Machining
- Leak Checking
- Automated Degating
