Our Injection Molding and Plastics Manufacturing Process

Mold Design and Preparation

A custom mold is designed based on part specifications, ensuring proper cavity formation, cooling channels, and ejection systems.

Material Selection

The appropriate thermoplastic or thermoset material is chosen based on the required part properties, such as strength, flexibility, or resistance.

Injection of Material

The material is heated until molten and injected into the mold cavity under high pressure, filling it completely and precisely. 

Cooling

The molten material cools and solidifies within the mold. Then, it takes the shape of the cavity, achieving the desired dimensional accuracy. 

Ejection

Once cooled, the part is ejected from the mold using an ejection system, ensuring no damage to the part during removal. 

Post-Processing and Inspection

The molded part undergoes any necessary post-processing (e.g., trimming or assembly), followed by quality inspection to ensure it meets specifications.

Our Injection Molding and Plastics Manufacturing Process

Ensure Consistent Material Flow and Adhesion in Multi-Component Molding

Frigate utilizes specialized tooling and process control to achieve precise adhesion and material flow in multi-component molding. Advanced injection systems ensure uniform material distribution and proper component alignment. Custom gating and multi-stage injection techniques are employed to inject materials sequentially, minimizing the risk of misalignment or adhesion failure. This process ensures that complex parts with multiple materials maintain structural integrity and meet stringent performance standards, even in high-demand applications where reliability and durability are critical.

Injection Molding and Plastics Manufacturing Materials

At Frigate, injection molding is carefully optimized for precision and efficiency. Advanced techniques ensure the consistent production of high-quality, complex plastic parts. 

ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)

ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is a high-strength thermoplastic known for its excellent impact resistance and toughness. It also provides good resistance to heat and chemicals, making it ideal for durable parts like housings and automotive components. 

Polycarbonate (PC)

Polycarbonate offers superior impact resistance, optical clarity, and high-temperature stability. It is commonly used for high-performance parts such as lenses, electrical enclosures, and automotive glazing. 

Polypropylene (PP)

Polypropylene is chemically resistant and has a high melting point, making it suitable for parts exposed to harsh chemicals and elevated temperatures. It's commonly used for medical devices, automotive under-the-hood parts, and containers. 

Polyethylene (PE)

HDPE and LDPE offer excellent chemical, low friction, and moisture resistance. HDPE is used for tough, durable parts like tanks and pipes, while LDPE is ideal for flexible applications such as films and packaging. 

Nylon (PA)

Nylon is known for its wear resistance, low friction, and high tensile strength. It is often used in high-performance gears, bushings, and electrical components, particularly in automotive and industrial applications. 

Polyoxymethylene (POM)

Also called acetal, POM has low friction, stiffness, and excellent dimensional stability. It’s ideal for precision components like bearings, gears, and automotive parts that require tight tolerances and durability.

Polystyrene (PS)

Polystyrene is a rigid, transparent thermoplastic offering easy molding and excellent electrical insulation properties. It is commonly used for non-durable products like packaging, trays, and consumer electronics casings. 

Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE)

TPE combines rubber's elasticity with plastics' moldability. It is ideal for flexible and soft parts, such as gaskets, seals, and soft-touch handles, while maintaining high durability.

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)

PET offers high strength, durability, and excellent chemical resistance. Due to its ability to withstand sterilization, it is commonly used in beverage bottles, food packaging, and medical components. 

Polyurethane (PU)

Polyurethane is a versatile material with superior abrasion resistance and elasticity. It can be molded into flexible or rigid forms, making it ideal for automotive parts, seals, gaskets, and cushioning applications. 

Injection Molding Solutions for Complex Pharmaceutical Components

Pharmaceutical components require both precision and durability to meet industry standards. Injection molding offers a solution by producing intricate, high-performance parts such as dosage delivery systems, medical vials, and packaging components. The technology ensures precise control over part geometry and material consistency, crucial for maintaining product integrity in the pharmaceutical sector. Injection molding also supports using specialized materials designed to meet regulatory guidelines, ensuring compliance and safety throughout manufacturing.

Prevent Defects and Deformation in Delicate or Intricate Designs

For intricate or delicate designs, precise control over injection velocity is essential. Frigate uses advanced injection molding machines with precise velocity control to manage material flow, particularly for high-viscosity substances. Injection speed is carefully adjusted based on the part’s geometry and material properties to prevent overpacking, flash, or deformation. This level of control ensures that even thin-walled or micro-molded components maintain their intended structure, surface finish, and dimensional accuracy while minimizing defects and ensuring consistent quality throughout production.
