Injection molding technique saves time

April 7th, 2014

Injection moldingIndustry insiders marvel at SIMCO’s injection molding technique. With several patent applications filed, this injection molding technique is being used to save time, reduce costs, and offer more options and accessories for customizing SIMCO electronics enclosures. This technique overcomes the disadvantages of the previously used pneumatic and mechanical techniques.

Customers have been requiring ever increasing enclosure customization. Changes are being made to various parts, especially to the front and rear panels that frequently need modified openings for different switches and controls. Previously, customizing enclosures in this fashion was cost prohibitive due to the increased lead times and the cost of molding custom parts. SIMCO set out to develop a technique that allowed it to fulfill customer demand for customized enclosures at a cost that is economically viable.
