Bring your solution to life with custom molding and in-house prototyping.
Prototyping
Small quantities of prototypes are often manufactured through our machining process, but injection molding is also utilized for a few reasons. Product developers can get a short run of parts made in real plastic materials, while simultaneously vetting a part design for moldability.
Prototype Tooling
North Bay Plastic Molders provides quick-turn molding; for prototyping, bridge tooling, and short-run manufacturing up to 10,000+ parts. We use advanced aluminum alloy molds that allow us to eliminate the costly and time-consuming custom engineering that normally goes into the development of tooling. North Bay Plastic Molders offers a broad selection of engineering-grade resins that produce molded parts that are strong and can have excellent finishes.
Quick-turn injection molding uses the industry standard production process for parts, so it’s an excellent predictor of manufacturability when you move to large-scale production. At North Bay Plastic Molders, we support an ever-increasing maximum part size and degree of complexity, and continue to introduce new materials that help designers and engineers make better products.
Environment
As a producer of plastic components, North Bay Plastic Molders is very conscious of our responsibility to the environment and the implications of its operations. Recycled polymer is used within the manufacturing process whenever production parameters and component design allows.
Injection Molding
Custom molding is our specialty, and we can produce either complete injection mold products, or component parts. In addition to our large selection of standard materials and colours to choose from, we also welcome your requirements for engineered specialty resins and/or special colours. Select from our standard surface finishes, or specify your requirement.
Tooling
Bridge tooling helps fill the manufacturing gap that occurs while waiting three to four months for production tooling to be ready. Our injection-molding process uses aluminum molds to quickly and efficiently produce run parts for pilot production or market testing before large-scale production begins.
