Precision Parts Demand Precise Processes
What Goes into Making Precision Tooling and Parts?
Precision Parts Demand Precise Processes
When you're developing custom plastic injection molded parts and tooling that require tight tolerance levels, you need a process that accounts for every detail. Whether it's a pin connector housing for an electronics component or a multi-cavity auto unscrewing plastic injection mold for the heavy equipment industry, the devil is most definitely in the details.
Designing, engineering and building custom tooling and injection molded parts for the automotive, electronics and medical device industries, in particular, demand precise processes to ensure the specs are consistently met and maintained.
It starts from day one.
At FTM Engineering Group, we follow our proven five-step process for every custom injection molding project we work on.
1. Ideation
The ideation phase gives you the opportunity to share your ideas, desires, problems, and challenges with us; and it allows us to gain a solid understanding of your needs.
2. Quote
From there, we create a comprehensive estimate of time and budget based on the information gathered during the initial ideation phase. Our combined 100+ years of experience ensures you receive a quote that provides the results you're looking for.
3. Do the Work
This is where the magic happens! And we keep you involved every step of the way. We believe over communicating is way more effective in reaching the intended goals that are established early on in the process.
4. Produce
From prototype to test runs to full production, your custom tooling and plastic injection molding project is handled with care, from cradle to grave.
5. Adjust
In our opinion, a project is never done. While the primary role of designing, engineering and production is complete, we work together with you to make sure the part and/or tool performs just like its supposed to and then make adjustments if needed.
There has to be a process.
Precision parts demand precise processes. Without a detailed, step-by-step process, you'll end up anxious and frustrated throughout the project. It all starts with the first step. So, let's start by scheduling a quick call. We invite you to contact us today or go ahead and request a quote.
