Technology
There are two major technological factors that differentiate Progressive
Molding Technologies from the average molder.
Scientific De-coupled Molding
By using scientific, de-coupled processing methods, we are able to
optimize the molding process for our customers, assuring them repeatability
and quality from lot to lot. We also utilize Design of Experiments (D.O.E.)
to quantify optimal processing variables and determine the acceptable
processing window for world-class quality on every run.
Automated Molding Cells
The concept: The heart of
the cell is the injection molding press. By utilizing advanced closed-loop
control, we are able to control and/or monitor all auxiliary equipment.
Automation of material handling eliminates common sources of contamination
that often result in quality defects. A sprue-picker and beside-the-press
grinder, provide continuous, contaminate free regrind to be precisely mixed
and reused in the production process.
At PMTI, we believe that by automating common redundant tasks, we can help
eliminate human error and provide a workplace for our employees that is more
rewarding. This enables our employees to focus on value-added activities and
continuous improvement projects. In addition, automation of key tasks
improves quality and minimizes overall costs to our customers.
