Reasons for Plastic Injection Molding
There are several reasons to go to a plastic injection molding company in Phoenix. First off, you can have as many or as few plastic parts as you need. This is important to know, particularly in the age of new technologies such as 3D Printing. 3D printing is cool, however, the turnaround time is still a bit long. Fast 3D printing is on the horizon, but now, it is designed solely for producing a very few parts in a short amount of time. That's great if you need maybe a dozen or so plastic parts and have plenty of time, but what if you need several hundred or several thousand plastic parts? Another reason for plastic parts manufacturing is the fact that 3D printing is still a bit expensive. It is far cheaper to mass produce a plastic part, save the die and the mold and then produce some more plastic parts as the need arises. Some plastic parts can be produced for pennies on the dollar, while still being quality plastic parts.Plastic Injection Molding: 20th Century Technology for the 21st Century
Mass production is more than a century old. It is one of the components of an industrial civilization. Why? Because it helps to keep costs down, and with inspection, quality up. While it is possible to manufacture plastic parts individually, it is highly labor as well as time intensive. However, in not even a tenth of the time, plastic injection molding can produce dozens or even hundreds of parts, depending on the custom plastic parts being manufactured. In some molds for example, particularly where the parts are small, a hundred parts can be produced in one short 3 minute run.The other advantage to injection molding is that the part is truly custom made. Not all plastic parts are simple. Some are a combination of plastics and high tech resins, or plastics and metals. With plastic injection molding, the plastic parts can be assembled by a production worker, and be ready to be shipped out within a day, sometimes, in more urgent cases within hours.
If you need a part, you don't want to allocate your company's resources to make one. Your best bet is to find someone to make it for you. One of the best options that you can look into is a plastics manufacturing plant in Phoenix.
