Insert Molding

WPS has proven experience in the automated handling of metal to achieve insert-molded articles. Typically, a metal insert is pre-positioned into a nest with a programmable robot, then a second robot moves the oriented insert into the mold and is positioned with mechanical holders or magnets. After mold closing, the plastic is injected onto the metal substrate to achieve the desired result.

Alternatively,inserts can be placed into the mold by hand with magnets or friction fits.

These techniques allow one to eliminate secondary assembly and reduce components in a given assembly.
