PRODUCTION

Our operation allows for the in-house customizing of finished parts. We can add barcodes, data codes, logo’s or simple markings. Customer’s specific packaging requests often lead to tailor-made solutions. Here’s an overview of what we can offer,

In Mold Decoration

The technology of IMD is a transfer decoration method. A pre-printed layout is electrostatically transferred from its backing onto and into the crystalizing material. The pre-printed label is positioned in the injection mould. As the mould closes and the plastic material is injected onto the label, both components bond completely, resulting in a high quality decorated surface. This method is used mostly on thick wall, heavy duty and long lasting parts.

Tampon print (a.k.a. pad print)

We print logos and other artwork on plastic parts. While we offer a variety of product printing options for nearly any rigid substrate, we are most often asked about our custom plastic pad printing, especially for plastic injection moulded parts. With our in-house capabilities, we have experience in printing on flat, oval, concave or convex, and even textured surfaces with the pad printing process.

Some of our plastic pad printing has worked with materials such as ABS, nylon, acrylic, polypropylene, polyester and polyethylene. We offer both single color pad printing or 1-color pad printing, and multicolor pad printing.

Screen printing


Screen printing is the best product decorating option when a large, bold image is required for a flat plastic part. When screen printing plastic parts on our machines, multicolor images are achievable but require one pass for each color. We can also screen print cylindrical plastic parts using these semi-automatic machines for just a few pieces or a run of several thousand.

Hot stamping – foil stamping

Hot stamping can be a cost-effective way to decorate parts with an impressive, high-quality appearance. Materials such as plastic can be decorated using the hot stamping method, including raised area or just applying an image to a flat part. The attention-grabbing effect this process offers is not achievable with pad printing or screen printing inks. We are able to provide custom hot stamping or foil stamping for low and high volume orders. 

Ultrasonic plastic welding


Ultrasonic welding generates heat to join parts and produces a clean weld area with uniform joint quality. High-frequency vibrations are applied to two parts or layers of material by a vibrating horn or sonotrode tool. The technique is fast, efficient, non-contaminating and requires no consumables. It’s the perfect welding technology for assembling automotive parts on a wide range of quality vehicles, crafting lifesaving medical devices and sealing modern food packaging.

Assembly


When called for assembling multiple parts into a single finished item or composite, we make sure all components are designed in order to be assembled, and assembled easily and permanently. It all start and ends with solid and uncompromising part design. Assembly can be done manually or robotized. Assembly can be done inhouse or outsourced to a qualified partner.
