KEY QUESTIONS TO ASK WHEN CHOOSING REACTION INJECTION MOULDING

There are 5 key questions to determine if Reaction Injection Moulding is the right process for your project.

  •  How many parts do you need?

If your project needs 40 parts per week or 2,000 parts per year, Reaction Injection Moulding may be your choice.

Reaction injection moulding is a low volume, manually operated process that can take a little longer depending on the complexity of the design.

  •  How large is your part?

This may become the ideal process for your project, considering it is possible to build a larger piece by putting several pieces together.

  • What is the value of the final product?

Since the process requires lower tooling costs, this process can be the most profitable for your company.

The value, depending on the design and complexity of the project, finishes, colours or rigidity, may vary.     

  • What are your parts and parts budget?

If the tooling costs your part requires are low, RIM may be the solution.

  • What is the risk and long term options?

Reaction injection moulding can offer you a low risk manufacturing process.
