Plastic Injection Molding Near Me

Lead times can vary depending on the complexity of the part, the size of the production run, and the type of tooling required. For prototyping, lead times can range from 1-3 weeks. For production runs, lead times typically range from 4-8 weeks, including tooling fabrication. Our team works closely with clients to expedite timelines whenever possible.

The cost of plastic injection molding depends on several factors, including part complexity, material selection, tooling costs, and production volume. Tooling costs can range from a few thousand dollars for simple molds to over $100,000 for complex, multi-cavity molds. Unit costs decrease significantly with higher production volumes. Our team can provide a detailed quote based on your specific requirements.

We work with a wide range of thermoplastic materials, including ABS, polypropylene, polycarbonate, polystyrene, polyethylene, nylon, and many others. We can also work with specialized materials such as medical-grade plastics, flame-retardant materials, and engineering polymers. Our material experts can help you select the best material for your application based on performance requirements, cost, and other factors.

Yes, our engineering team offers design for manufacturability (DFM) services to optimize your part design for injection molding. We can help with features like wall thickness, draft angles, gate placement, and material selection to ensure your part is easy to manufacture, meets your performance requirements, and minimizes costs. Early collaboration on design can save significant time and money in the long run.

We can accommodate both small and large production runs. For prototyping and low-volume production, we can produce as few as 1-100 parts. For production runs, our minimum order quantity typically starts at 1,000 parts, but we can discuss options for smaller quantities depending on your specific needs. Our flexible approach allows us to serve startups, small businesses, and large corporations alike.
