As the electronics market gets bigger, and many electronic products and assemblies are getting smaller. World Class Plastics produces precision-engineered plastic components that are sized for compact assemblies and meet safety and industry standards. In addition to injection molding, our end-to-end services include engineering and design support, prototyping and 3D modeling and automated machining and material handling. See how we can support your electronics manufacturing projects with industry-specific expertise and an extensive selection of materials.
The Importance of Injection Molded Parts in Electronics
In injection molding, fluidized thermoplastic gets injected into precision molds at fast speeds and high pressures, completely filling the cavity before the plastic cools and sets. For electronics applications, this manufacturing process is a great way to produce high volumes of precision parts with little variation and minimal material waste.
At World Class Plastics, we use molds that are engineered to eliminate the risk of air gaps, deformations, and errors, minimizing material waste and ensuring your order gets to its destination on time.
Injection-molded parts play a large role in modern electronics because of these advantages:
- Plastics are lightweight : Plastics are compatible with lightweight wearable technologies, portable machinery, and energy-efficient assemblies for EVs.
- Injection molding is fast : World Class Plastics can quickly fulfill orders of thousands of components without sacrificing quality. Injection molding processes can create complex three-dimensional goods in a single stage with minimal finishing or secondary processes, further speeding up production.
- The process is versatile : Injection molding is compatible with many different plastics, from acrylic and polyester to specialty materials like Thermoplastic Vulcanizate (TPV) Santoprene®. We accommodate fill material like glass fibers and beads, talc, mica, or calcium carbonate, as well as overmolding and insert molding.
