Point of Sale Display

A set of large parts make up this display. The header is a 20 pound, 8 foot long part requiring assembly, painting, and labeling. The two side rails are identical 7 foot long 12 pound parts also assembled and painted. These parts had to be made to tight tolerance so they would fit the metal frame.

Equipment Enclosure

The Reaction Injection Molding process is often the best alternative for enclosure parts. Mold costs are lower than thermoplastic alternatives because of lower mold pressures. The Reaction Injection Molding process is very price competitive at lower annual and run volumes.

Equipment Hood

A large part for an equipment manufacturer to allow easy access to their machine. The alternatives in metal and fiberglass were heavy, not dimensionally repeatable, and expensive. This is an ideal part for Reaction Injection Molding.

Door Assembly

A medical equipment manufacturer uses this door on a blood analyzer. Not easily seen in the photo is the extensive amount of assembly done on the part by Exothermic Molding. There is a metal plate attached to the back with hinges and latches. The customer saved themselves considerable assembly time by sourcing the complete assembly.

Encapsulated Centrifuge Cover and Electronic Component

This cover has been cut into a section to show the encapsulation of an aluminum assembly. Part is 22" square and is used as a cover to protect the operator in the event of an explosion within the machine. Not only does this encapsulated assembly protect the operator it also provides thermal and acoustical insulation.

 

 

 

We have cut this part in half to demonstrate Reaction Injection Molding's capability to encapsulate electronic boards and components. The Reaction Injection Molding process uses low pressure and low temperature, which makes it ideal for protecting electronic components.

Incubator Base

A large part (over 40 pounds, 48" x 36" x 12") with many innovative features used in a sensitive medical application. Note the wall thickness variation from the 1/4" nominal wall to the 1-1/2" thick solid handle. This very complex and sculpted shape has to be held to tight tolerances so other components fit into the assembly properly.

A Complex Assembly

This relatively small assembly was done in Reaction Injection Molding because the anticipated annual volume was expected to be low while the dimensional accuracy had to be high and the cosmetics were important.
