Choosing the Right Plastic Manufacturing Process: Why Part Design Drives Process Selection
Design for Manufacturability
Thorough Preparation Leads to a Better End Product
Developing a new product involves many moving parts, in both a planning and a manufacturing sense. It includes multiple teams and checkpoints designed to ensure a flawless end product. Preparation is a vital part of the product development process, as it sets up the rest of the project for success. Read how EVCO can help bring your product development project to life.
The Importance of Selecting the Right Injection Molding Materials
Choosing the best material for injection molding requires balancing mechanical performance, environmental resistance, aesthetics, regulatory requirements and cost. Explore the resin selection process and learn how the right material can improve part quality, reduce risk and support sustainable manufacturing goals.
Process Conversion – Thermoforming to Plastic Injection Molding
Orion Apollo® Solar Light Pipe
Orion Energy Systems, a leading manufacturer of proprietary energy management systems and renewable energy strategies for reducing energy consumption, partnered with EVCO Plastics to convert its Apollo solar light pipe’s acrylic plastic dome from a thermoformed part to an injection molded plastic part in order to save cost, speed part production, and improve accuracy and overall part quality.
Molded-In Color–Exterior Body Panel
EVCO Plastics’ experience in molded-in color plastic injection molding helped a leading agricultural equipment OEM produce an exterior body panel with a long-lasting brilliant color and finish that withstands harsh outdoor environments, without the high manufacturing cost and environmental issues of secondary painting.
Metal to Plastic Conversion Material Selection
EVCO Plastics’ experience in metal to plastic conversion and material selection helped a leading agricultural equipment OEM convert a structural part required to withstand high impact and wear from metal to plastic, reducing part cost and weight and not just maintaining- but improving the part’s structural and performance properties.
Achieve Stronger, Higher-Quality Parts With Molded-In Color
EVCO’s attention to detail and diligent efforts helped the greater team find a cost-effective and high-quality solution. Now, the same team is working with the manufacturer to redesign several other parts using the SLX material, creating additional benefits—and better parts.
