Metal Insert Injection Moulders
As specialist metal insert injection moulders, we have many years of experience working on both small and large projects, from straightforward insert-moulded parts to highly complex metal insert mouldings used in harsh environments.
For many years we have been helping companies meet their objectives by offering a comprehensive and cost-effective metal insert injection moulding service, along with custom technical moulding, micro & miniature moulded parts & lead frame overmoulding to specification. We can offer insert moulded components, assembled parts & products in a wide range of colours, finishes, strengths & technical specifications. The metal insert moulding process starts with loading an insert into a mould cavity form for moulding. The part is then encapsulated with a selected plastic polymer. Typical examples are cable end mouldings and electrical parts & connectors. We are metal insert injection moulders offering a total solution.
Lead Frame Over Moulding
The lead frame over moulding articulates a continuous strip of stamped metal through the moulding process, to a final plastic form which is over moulded around the lead frame. This is common practice for the supply of electronic packaging and moulded connectors and components are generally re-reeled on to a spool or bandolier. This process is commonly described as reel-to-reel.
Following the recent acquisition of our business, Stroud Plastics are now able to offer a complete integrated project solution which would typically include tool-making, electroplating, specialist degreasing / cleaning, over-mould, assembly, test and bespoke packaging solutions.
