Injection Molding

Molding Solutions consistently works with our clients, delivering advanced precision injection molding products and services that exceed expectations, improve your competitive advantage, lower your risk, make your job easier, and improve your profitability. Our scientific molding approach and quality assurance techniques, such as automated optical inspection, ensure the excellence of your final product.

Our facilities have 51 injection molding machines ranging from 17 to 1320 tons, with shot sizes ranging from .07 oz to .142 oz. The innovative use of robotic equipment and an enhanced vision system allows us to produce exceptional, defect-free parts at a competitive cost.

Insert Molding

Molding Solutions Inc. has experience and expertise in plastic injection insert molding. We aim to increase our clients’ competitive edge and aid in their efforts to increase profitability for every project. Insert molding streamlines production and often helps eliminate additional secondary operations, reducing unit production costs. This precision molding process feeds resin into a heated barrel, where it is mixed and injected into the tooling cavity. The resin then hardens and cools around a pre-placed insert, molding the product together.
