Components fully integrates rapid tooling, plastic mold
making, hot foil stamping, and mold maintenance with
precision design and production services. The integration
has allowed us to streamline the plastic manufacturing
process for optimum production speeds. Aline plastic
manufacturing uses a refined and efficient process to
produce exact specifications in custom plastic parts
at speeds that meet customer deadlines and exceed customer
expectations.
Rapid Tooling in
Plastic Mold Making
Aline Components employs sophisticated machining equipment
and experienced toolmakers to provide the necessary
speed for fast turnaround and competitive pricing in
plastic part production. Rapid tooling helps Aline offer
speed in plastic injection molding to meet tight schedules.
In plastic manufacturing, the terms tooling and molds
can be used interchangeably. Tools however are constructed
of different materials than molds and have a longer
life cycle in the production of plastic parts or prototype
parts.
Prototype tooling components usually consist
of nonpermanent materials and are used to construct
a specific number of parts for testing the engineering
and manufacturing processes. Plastic manufacturing also
uses other types of tooling such as stamping, extruding,
and die-casting when necessary.
Hot Foil Stamping
Die
As part of the plastic manufacturing process, Aline
Components offers superior hot foil stamping for permanent
plastic part identification and marking. Our hot foil
stamping presses a heated metal die to a colored foil
then to a plastic part. The raised surface of the die
touches the foil and the plastic part and permanently
transfers a foil graphic to the plastic part.
Custom designs and logos can be made to
exact customer specifications. Aline Components offers
a wide range of metallic dies. We use optimal heat treating
and nickel plating to ensure minimal wear with continual
plastic part usage. The hot foil stamping markers are
engraved with lead-in and lead-out lines for a seamless
transition on and off the foil.
Mold Maintenance
in Plastic Part Manufacturing
Aline Components maintains a detailed mold history file
for every customer’s mold then archives the file
for retrieval in the future. Our experienced mold makers
use the latest software programs to track every mold
that runs through Aline’s production process.
The advanced software verifies all costs, including
internal and external expenses, as well as the dates
of any work done on or with that mold. At Aline Components,
we know what it takes to maintain plastic molds for
long life cycles.
Rely on Aline Components today for the
highest qualities in tooling, dies, and molds. We adapt
to your needs to provide plastic parts at a low cost
and delivers to customers across international borders.
