Rapid Injection Molding Capability
From kickoff to molded parts as early as next day
A machine and a handful of early test molds became a repeatable rapid injection molding capability used by Fortune 500 companies.
The first customer project shipped in two weeks. Through continuous improvement, turnaround compressed to as early as next day.
Mold cost dropped by up to 6x. Tool life increased by up to 4x. More than 60 molds ran through the system in two years.
The capability scaled into a single-operator production system from intake to delivery and became a public-facing capability on the company’s homepage.
