A customer in the toy industry contracted us to manufacture this piston which is used in one of their toy products. Composed of polypropylene, it featured multiple moving parts and mating surfaces, and highlights the complex shapes that our advanced processes can produce. Manufactured on our precision injection molding equipment, the part featured a SPI B-2 textured finish, dimensions of 2.068" in length, and an outside diameter of 1.040", with a volume of 0.27 cubic inches. The customer supplied drawings called out tolerances of 0.005", which was maintained through dimensional inspection and hourly fit testing. The customer required a total of 600 finished pieces which we were able to produce at 144 pieces per hour. For more information on this project, see the table below or contact us directly.

A toy industry customer contracted us to produce this custom injection molded polypropylene component. The customer supplied drawing called out for finished texture of SPI D-3, and the use of a custom color for the polypropylene to be used. We provided the color matching for the Pantone Cool Gray 7C that the part required. Manufactured to tolerances of 0.005", the part featured dimensions of 2.300" in length, an outside diameter of 1.681", and a volume of 1.45 cubic inches. Quality control was provided by regular fit testing and verification of critical dimensions throughout the run.
