OEMs favor plastic injection molding due to the ability to manufacture abundant plastic components with high-quality consistency. With over 50 years of experience, we have dedicated tooling engineers for our in-house designs and processing engineers to develop the most efficient process for the highest quality product. With our diversified, cross-functional team, we manufacture to our individual customer’s needs.
Twin Shot
Two-shot injection molding is also called dual-shot, double-shot, multi-shot, 2k, and twin-shot injection. This is the process of running different raw material resins in one press. Embracing the versatility of two-shot injection molding, Nifco enhances product aesthetics and functionality and reinforces its position as an industry leader. The use of this technology reflects Nifco's commitment to delivering customized solutions that surpass expectations. Nifco utilizes this technology to meet the most stringent customer requirements:
water sealing
automation
multi-color products
Weld assembled products
Insert Molding
Insert Molding Is shooting plastic over an object, commonly a metal ring or threaded bushing. Using robotics and bowl feeders, Nifco automates the loading of inserts for high-quality products, resulting in decreased cycle times. We use this technology to meet the increased demands of our customers for stronger products while utilizing the advantages of injection molding. Below are examples of how Nifco is excelling in our field:
