Small, High-Precision Parts for Medical Devices

Explore AIM Processing’s insert molding and overmolding services, offering innovative solutions to enhance product functionality by combining different materials or integrating components directly into plastic parts.


Expertise for optimum material selection

Our mechanical engineers have expertise and experience with a broad range of engineering plastics. For parts used in medical devices, our engineers can provide guidance on the optimum medical grade plastic that will meet part requirements and regulatory requirements.

 

Disciplined process development

Our engineering team of materials engineers, process engineers, and quality engineers will work with your engineers to ensure a cost-effective manufacturing process. If needed, we can make recommendations for tooling to meet critical dimensional requirements. The team will define process steps, tool maintenance procedures, and quality control measures to maintain a dimensionally stable part.

Additional manufacturing services

To help you reduce your manufacturing costs and manufacturing steps, we can perform sub-assembly work. If needed, we also can conduct ultrasonic welding and heat staking. Furthermore, we can laser etch and mark parts for identification and traceability.

Tight tolerances for precision assemblies

If you have a part that must fit tightly into a precision assembly, we can produce small parts with tolerances of ±0.001 inch. That capability allows us to manufacture 100% yield components in high volume runs without the need for detailed part inspection.

For example, we make a multi-cavity part for a medical device manufacturer that has 14 holes with the diameter of a human hair. With the tolerance we can achieve, we produce a million of these parts each year with 0 defects.

 

Maximizing tool performance

Our in-house tooling team maintains and keeps your tooling clean and running at optimum performance. We ensure that the tool continues to supply quality parts that meet all required specifications during every production run. Our care for your tooling optimizes the life of the tool to maximize your return-on-investment.

Quality-focused for consistent production

You can have confidence in the parts we manufacture for you. We are committed to the highest quality standards as evidenced by our ISO 9001:2015 registration. We execute a documented set of procedures to provide you with consistent parts that meet and exceed your requirements.

 

High-capacity manufacturing

We operate 37 state-of-the-art presses and operate on a 24 hour/7 day a week schedule. With a mixture of automated, lights-out production and press-side attended operations, we achieve high quality and low costs. This arrangement allows us to meet both high volume and low volume requirements.

 

Long-term partnerships

We pride ourselves in fostering long-term partnerships with our clients. Our engineering team is always available to consult on design improvements, material selection, and cost optimization.

Together, we can solve your challenges with our innovative and cost-effective solutions for injection molded medical components. Contact us today to discuss your requirements.
