Plastic injection molding, 90 to 950 tons
Founded in 1970, we mold plastic parts in Noblesville, Indiana. Our production floor runs injection molding machines from 90 to 950 tons, beside a tool room that builds and maintains the molds. We are ISO 9001:2015 certified.

What 90 to 950 tons means for your part
Clamp tonnage is the force that holds the mold shut while plastic is injected. Bigger parts with more projected area need more of it, so a 90 to 950 ton range lets small and large programs run on one floor.
Shot size, the most plastic a machine can inject in one cycle, runs from 140 to 6,803 grams across our machines. The right machine for your part depends on its size, wall thickness and material.
Equipment at the machine
All 19 of our machines are Mitsubishi machines, from compact ones to large white clamp units, under bridge cranes.
At the machine we use Maguire auger loaders for color, hot and cold runners, thermolators, chillers and hydraulic core pulls, with an overhead crane system rated to 10 tons for setting large molds.
Materials we mold
We mold ABS, polycarbonate, nylon, glass-filled nylon, acetal, polypropylene, polystyrene, HDPE and LDPE.
We also work with PC-ABS, PBT, PVC, TPE, ULTEM, PEEK and polysulfone. If you are not sure what your part should be made of, say so on the quote form and we will help you choose.
From your file to production parts
A typical program moves through four stages: the mold is built, sample parts are molded, you approve them, and production starts.
Mold building and repair happen in our tool room, which has CNC mills, EDM, wire, manual mills and lathes, and surface grinders. We also take in molds built by other molders, including overseas. Describe yours on the quote form; the mold transfer guide covers what a move involves.

Inspection, packing and delivery
Each part is inspected at least two times, once in production and once during packaging.
Orders ship from two sunken docks, two ground-level docks and three drop-trailer sites, or go out on our own truck within 50 miles of Noblesville.
