ASPEC is proud to provide premium insert molding services, with added experience in the overmolding process. Our facility features state of the art configurable machinery, able to adapt to the gravitational challenges of the molding process. Our equipment easily switches between the horizontal and vertical axis, including horizontal clamps with horizontal and vertical injections, or vertical clamps with horizontal and vertical injection. These systems provide clamping forces from 28 to 90 tons, with shot sizes from 1 oz. to 3 oz. and multi cavity capabilities. A wide range of inserts are available including brass and stainless steel threaded inserts, high tolerance bushings, insulated copper wire, electrical connectors, die stamped shapes, .025 steel wires, shafts and bars, copper coils, chain links, fiber belts, blades and keys all up to .5” in wall thickness. A number of secondary operations are available to complete customer parts, including sonic welding, insertion of ultrasonic inserts, tipping, hot stamp decoration, precision machining, regrinding, thermal printer labeling, bar coding, product pack out, and assembly services.
All molded components are subjected to thorough inspection and testing procedures including first article, conformance to dimensions, material quality tests, and sampling. Our advanced integrated quality systems include critical process monitoring and an investment in a highly sophisticated MRP software package for proactive monitoring and up front part quality assessments. We are beta test site for the newest 8.0 software version, offering our customers the best systems available today. Our computer controlled process includes the bar coding of every job including all associated paperwork. At ASPEC we offer comprehensive manufacturing services, providing a list of value added services including part design assistance, model fabrication, prototype injection molds, production injection molds, plastic parts machining, and warehousing. Additionally, shielding, plating, silk screened printing, and pad printing are available through our trusted vendors. We meet the highest industry standards with our manufacturing processes and products, and employ lean manufacturing methods.
