Manufacturing and Moulding

The right moulding process for the part.

We select the process from the part shape, material, finish, performance and expected volume, then add assembly or finishing where required.

Manufacturing system

The part shape, material, finish and performance determine the process.

Centralized Conveying System
Material handling and preparation are controlled before processing.
Robotic Arm
Automation and in-process controls support repeatable moulding output.
Moulding Systems
The production route follows geometry, material and performance requirements.
Moulding Component Families
Component-family evidence accompanies the specialist process routes detailed on this page.
Ultrasonic Welding
Joining and secondary operations complete the component for its application.
Pp Presentation Quality Cmm Master
Inspection and programme-specific validation support the release decision.
