Front-Loading Design for Injection Molding
We introduce early-stage product design support, optimize operations, and maintain close communication with customers to ensure our solutions exceed expectations.
Our business is far from being a copycat.
We support your business, setting new standards and pushing the boundaries of manufacturing from Alabama.
As the I-PEX group, we excel in precision manufacturing technology. We have combined our skills in equipment development, design, and manufacturing for plastic parts and complex molded parts with pre and post molding processes.
This includes plastic injection molding and other mass production capabilities like stamping, plating, and assembly. These capabilities let us manage the entire process from start to finish, allowing us to meet the customer's needs for product quality, volume production, and lead times.
Our on-site field application engineers also support customers from an early design phase. With proposals to improve and stabilize quality and cost, we are commited to maximizing our customer's product value.
We don't just meet your requirements; we are committed to maximizing your value.
Design Optimization
